  • I got a couple emails today-Perfect sense that will never happen

    Trump is asking everyone to forward this email to a minimum of 20 people, and to ask each of those to do likewise.
    In three days, most people in the United States will have the message. This is an idea that should be passed around.

    The TRUMP Rule

    Let’s see if congress understands what people pressure is all about.

    Salary of retired US Presidents .. . . . .. . . . . .. . $180,000 FOR LIFE.

    Salary of House/Senate members .. . . . .. . . . $174,000 FOR LIFE. This is stupid

    Salary of Speaker of the House .. . . . .. . . . . $223,500 FOR LIFE. This is really stupid

    Salary of Majority / Minority Leaders . . .. . . . . $193,400 FOR LIFE. Stupid

    Average Salary of a teacher . . .. . . . .. . . . . .. .$40,065

    Average Salary of a deployed Soldier . . .. . . .. $38,000

    Here’s where the cuts should be made!

    TRUMP, in a recent interview with CNBC, offers one of the best quotes about the debt ceiling:

    “I could end the deficit in five minutes," he told CNBC. "You just pass a law that says that anytime there is a deficit of more than 3% of GDP, all sitting members of Congress are ineligible for re-election".

    The 26th Amendment ( granting the right to vote for 18 year-olds ) took only three months and eight days to be ratified! Why? Simple! The people demanded it. That was in 1971 - before computers, e-mail, cell phones, etc.

    Of the 27 amendments to the Constitution, seven (7) took one (1) year or less to become the law of the land - all because of public pressure. Trump is asking each addressee to forward this email to a minimum of twenty people on their address list; in turn ask each of those to do likewise.

    In three days, most people in The United States of America will have the message. This is one idea that really should be passed around.

    Congressional Reform Act of 2017

    1. No Tenure / No Pension. A Congressman / woman collects a salary while in office and receives no pay when they're out of office.

    2. Congress (past, present, & future) participates in Social Security.

    All funds in the Congressional retirement fund move to the Social Security system immediately. All future funds flow into the Social Security system, and Congress participates with the American people. It may not be used for any other purpose.

    3. Congress can purchase their own retirement plan, just as all Americans do.

    4. Congress will no longer vote themselves a pay raise. Congressional pay will rise by the lower of CPI or 3%.

    5. Congress loses their current health care system and participates in the same health care system as the American people.

    6. Congress must equally abide by all laws they impose on the American people.

    7. All contracts with past and present Congressmen/women are void effective 3/1/17. The American people did not make this contract with Congressmen/women.

    Congress made all these contracts for themselves. Serving in Congress is an honor, not a career. The Founding Fathers envisioned citizen legislators, so ours should serve their term(s), then go home and go back to work.

    If each person contacts a minimum of twenty people, then it will only take three days for most people in the U.S. to receive the message. It's time!

    THIS IS HOW YOU FIX CONGRESS!

    Pass it on. Let's drain the swamp!

    Food for thought

    Fathom the hypocrisy of a government that requires every citizen to prove that they are insured...but not everyone must prove they are a citizen.

    Now consider that many of those who refuse, or are unable, to prove they are citizens will receive free insurance paid for by those are forced to buy insurance because they are citizens.

      Hate to tell you 60 but that isn't Trump. I think that email started back in 2010 or so. I know at least part of it came from an interview with Warren Buffet.
      But there is truth to a lot of what they say
      Wait until next year is a terrible philosophy
      Hope is not a strategy
      RIP

        I knew the Trump part was BS ND but the rest of it is so true that you want to puke. I'm surprised that he hasn't come out with it to tell you the truth. It's probably political suicide with those republican bastards anyway and that's all those Dems would need to impeach him. That would put and end to the partisanship, at least for that issue.

          It is amazing that most of us really do know how to make this government work better............. But the bottom line is that the people that make the rules would never WANT that list to be even considered.

          Now politicians view these jobs as careers....... So bad!

            Hell they are careers. You get paid pretty well; somehow make millions on the side; walk around with people kissing your ass all day to get you to vote for what they want; and you think you are a great patriot doing good for your country. What's not to like. Why go back to the real world when you can live in the fairytale world
