With economy in shambles, Congress gets a raise!




OK, let me see if I get this correct. Millions of dollars (my bad, trillions) that comes from tax collection (that's us) has gone to private industries as a bailout. President Bush has now extended billions to the auto companies and now Congress agrees to a pay increase. What the hell is going on! This is the second time that Chrysler has been rescued by the government! How many of you drive Honda's out there? You should be really pissed! Your elected officials voted to increase their pay while telling the management of private industries to decrease theirs.

Under the new administration should I expect a check from my Congressman or Senator? Consider it a refund for the terrible job that they are doing? Maybe I should sit back and wait for the new administration to spread the wealth a bit. Either way, we are traveling down a dark and narrow road, unless of course you want the mightiest and most free nation in the history of mankind to become socialist. Not me, I would rather be free!!!!!!
