Reduce their pay by 20 percent for evey year they don’t balance the budget.

Gee, we have allowed Congress to make their “service” quite profitable. Great salary, perks, healthcare (not Obamacare, silly) pension. Oh, and their salaries are on inflation autopilot, like any other so-called entitlement, despite the 27th Amendment.

And we wonder why there are so many career politicians.

Give them nothing but expenses to and from Congress, house them in barracks. Serve a term, go home.

Boehner, Cantor, Ryan, and McConnell ain't gonna do jack except jaw-jaw, use smoke and mirrors, and do the Beltway two-step. These people are liars and gutless, spineless RINOs. All they want is to wield power and they don't give a tinker's damn about you or I. They're worse than the Donkey scum like Pelosi and Reid because the prey on those who fear for America's future. They themselves don't give a rip as long as they “get theirs”. For my money, at least 8 of 10 congress critters needs: 1) rope; 2) tree; 3) assembly required; and 4) repeat.
