no more than 2 terms for any office
no more LIFELONG government jobs either - ESPECIALLY jobs that have “20 and out” retirement benefits.
If any freeper here has one and you don't see the downside of it, you are not a true conservative- I don't BLAME anyone for taking advantage of it, I would too- since the rules exist... but I would still agree it is a BAD BAD policy. Especially when govt employees "retire" after 20 years and then come back as a contractor to their current job (at now twice the pay) THIS IS WHAT IS BANKRUPTING US
And here I thought “CRS” meant “Can’t Remember Sh!t”.
I’ve heard that of their numerous offices they are allowed to keep all the furniture from one office of their choice.
Not sure if it is true but if so it is a waste of taxpayer money.
Looks like they have to turn in their ermine-trimmed robes, though.
They have made themselves a well-paid ruling elite, protected from the problems of everyday life, like having to find a job to pay bills.
Of course not to mention the cushy lobbying jobs they will get.
IIRC, a congressman becomes entitled to lifetime pension and health benefits after serving one day of one term in office.
It’s completely outrageous.
Someone correct me if I’m wrong...
