There is a list of 80 "public servants" who have multiplied their net worth while serving as Congress Members during the same time period when most of us were losing wealth rapidly; watching our homes plummet in value; reading about corporate malfeasance carried out with impunity; paying much higher income and property taxes; and watching municipal, State, and Federal government share of the pie rise exponentially! Sickening isn't it? You think any of these clowns were:
1. "well and faithfully discharge(ing) the duties of the office..." to which elected?
2. Supporting and defending the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic?
3. Bearing true faith and allegiance to that same Constitution?
4. Looking out for constituents?
Or anything else in the oath of office they took upon assuming their Congressional offices in Washington DC to represent us?
Or do you think they are just:
5. Getting very, very, wealthy at the taxpayer's expense by selling their souls and influence to the highest bidder and/or making a killing in the markets by triggering economic crisis after crisis which--to the people triggering them--create fabulous wealth opportunities that "We the People" will never see?
