Czuch: I think congress should give back some of the pay raises THEY also always vote in favor of for themselves too :)
I love how THEY vote on if they should get a pay raise...let us the voters vote on that one and see what WE say

anastasia: But that's just part of it.... I think the expense bills should be cut by 3/4

If they have to have an official dinner, let them order from pizza hut or McD's and have a bud instead of expensive wines, etc.

That's a few million saved each year at least.

anastasia: Good point.... after all, it is all our money, both what the congress makes and what they are planning on giving away to the auto....

I mean, since we just bailed out the banks, cant we make them give loans to the autos?
