I think a mandatory age limit on running for congress is a good idea and a mandatory retirement age....senile old congresscritters are not needed...bet their staff run things when they get old..

It should be called: "The Congressional Airline Captain Parity Act"

What the He!!, they finally upped it to 65, but "ATP's" (The Airline Pilot's "rating" is called the "ATP") are age limited, they helped make those rules so why should they live by them too!

I'd like for them to have to live the laws they write for us for 1 year. After 1 year it becomes the law of the land.

Its so nice to have laws and regulations that you can exempt yourself from....Like Obama care, the congress is exempt from it, so are a few of their friends that got waivers....I am amazed that the citizens have allowed it to go on for decades...epa,batf,ada,dept of ed, dept of commerce, dept of dip shits and all the rest. NOt needed. Put into law so the congress doesn't have to be responsible for what they do....its not laws you see, its regulations but pay no attention to them and your butt lands in jail/fined.

Sounds like a law not made by the legislators to me..no new taxes, just new fee's. etc. add all it up and I'll bet it comes to over 50% of the money one earns. That is slavery. We don't own our property we rent it from the government. Layer upon layer of tax's, fee's and regulations doesn't sound like freedom to me...

Washington should be able to write laws that do not exceed 3 pages double spaced on regular size writing tablets. Work in the city for on 2 months of the year and decrease salary and staff by 90%. No foreign aid to any country that bad mouths us and stay out of other countries civil wars.

The only thing they have authority to do is defend our borders.....jeewhiz, the one thing they won't do...

Sorry for the rant, just got out of bed and only 1/2 of my cup of coffee has been consumed......:O)

I'll turn into a nice person when the other half is consumed.. Well, nice by my standards...:O)
