LIVING THE LIFE AT OUR EXPENSE

If you were asked to guess, what area of the United States would you say has the highest average income?  New York City?  Los Angeles?  Silicon Valley?  Well, would you believe that it is actually the Washington D.C. area?  Median household income in the region is $84,523, which is the highest in the nation.

One of the biggest reasons for this are the huge salaries being pulled down by federal employees in the Washington D.C. area.  According to the latest numbers, the average federal employee in the D.C. area brings in total compensation worth more than $126,000 a year.  Of course members of Congress are even doing far better than that.  Most of the members of Congress are millionaires, and somehow the vast majority of our politicians leave Washington D.C. far wealthier than when they arrived.  So if you want to live the high life, you might want to move to the Washington D.C. area.  Our “representatives” in Congress and the bureaucrats that work for the federal government are swimming in cash, and it is all at our expense.

Now I'm gonna stop right there and dive in head first on this one. How do the people, that we ELECT, and for the most part PAY, have a higher standard of living that we do. I will tell you how. By doing back door deals, shaving campaign funds and racking up donations from lobbyists and special interests groups to take care of them before us. How legal is this. By their definition its fine. But by ours. It is wrong. This is the equivalent to us, the citizens of this nation, being sport team owners, and our franchise player is getting paid by us and the team he is playing against to throw the game. Plain and simple. This is not right. And it needs to be fixed. I wish someone would have some descency to say, "Hey, what about the PEOPLE". I honestly think the shirt and tie gang in Washington does not care. SO in response to that. I urge everyone to share this article and make a plan to boot the in house representation OUT! They live knowing that they will never be relieved from their post. We as voting Americans have the power to move that mountain, and to place someone in office who will be fair, balanced, and believe that the citizens who pay the bill, their salary, and give that vote that they look for come re-election time, DO COUNT.

We have the power to move this trash out of our government sector. So let's do so. Starting today, I am calling for a " CUT THE CA$H" campaign to lower the pay in Washington. It may seem a bit BIG now but think about it. Even when our country has been doing it's worst, they have seen their pay INCREASE. Now who's playing fair.
