The Hill’s 2011 50 Wealthiest in Congress

Does any one have any idea why so many are unemployed or can’t get equal pay or pay higher than minimum or like the politicians that you elected??????

These people don’t care about whether you have a job or not, because as long as they are making so much money out side of their job as a Politician in Government, plus a SIX Figure Salary.

There are Politicians and Teachers who talk big about how they are for our Children, if this is the case then why are our kids getting farther behind in Education today, think about it, it is all talk and no walk, the same thing is taught every year in Education, there is no teaching, just Striking, and there is so much testing going on that where is the learning. 

Then you here them telling every one that they can’t live on what they make as an Elected Official and need a raise even though they make Six Figured pay a year with 9 to 15% automatic pay increase plus cost of living, wouldn’t it be nice if ALL Americans could get on the job pay like this every year with all the same pay and benefits they get.

And now we have people who are getting this type of wages and want more with disregard the people who are lucky to get paid minimum wage or some are lucky if they can get 25 hours work a week.

Here are just some that are inconsiderate of others, where do you start, I will start with Politicians, then you have, Unions, Teachers (a good examples this year in Tacoma Wa.), Corporate Executives (who get big pay and bonuses), Auto workers (big pay and medical), the list goes on and on, but the people who are not as lucky, have to clean up after the GREEDY by paying higher Rents, Food, Gas, Heating, Electricity, Water, Sewer, Buying a car, Buying clothes, going out at least once a month, and this is after taxes. All these prices go up every time the cost of living goes up every time wages go up.
