When are we Americans going to do something about the unrealistic amount of money we give our Senators and Congressmen by way of salary and benefits? That's not counting the "perks" of air fare, hotel stays, food, etc. If you are elected to office, you are set for life. What incentive do people have for running for office...the goal of serving their country for the good of the country, or creating a quick and plush nest egg? Are you tired of this type of pork-barrel spending and, if so, what can be done about it?
