I rarely if ever see any report on the congressional benefit package that they award themselves.

You think they want the typical American voter/taxpayer knowing how well they have it? All of the perks they get, the retirement pay?

A congressman may serve only ONE term and recieve a pension and benefits for life. 4 years!

Civil Service workers may retire well after 20 yrs and many have never served one day in the military. They also recieve excellent benefits as do many public union employees

Notice we never see any mention of the promises that were made back when they first started pushing Obama Care.

Back then the democrats said that the new medical plan would give everyone the same medical plan that congress had.

But that promise vaporized just like everything else politicians promise to get elected.
