Justifiably, John Boehner's Congress has been called a "do nothing Congress" with the highest disapproval ratings (about 75% disapprove) since the 70's. These folks are deaf. When 90% of the Country calls for gun control legislation they fail to create law and they invent reasons to vote on healthcare legislation when no action is required. Can't they find something constructive to do with their time.
I propose the following: if we furlough Federal employees because the "debt limit" fails to get approval, then lets just furlough Congress. The Speaker earns $223,000. a year and each Congress person earns a minimum of $174,000. that would save Americans about $93 million dollars and that does not include their staffs. These folks should be subject to the same scrutiny every working person faces. They should be paid for their productivity. This 112 Congress acted on 193 pieces of legislation including the naming Federal facilities.
When will they get the message? Detroit realized that the american automobile industry was in trouble when Japan had captured 25% of the market share and look what happened in Detroit. Washington has been told that the average american has no faith in there congressional leadership but even with 75% disapproving they still don't get the message. HELP!!!!!!!
