OK, drove up to Red Bluff, CA this weekend. Turns out there are a lot of stupid or just plain selfish people on the road. Most people don't have the common courtesy to pull over to the slower lane, rather than block cars that are going faster than they are. Many still don't know to use their turn signals for lane changes. And those from other states don't have a clue on how to drive in this state.
On another subject, why hasn't anyone raised the unconstitutionality of the Federal Government being involved in banking, finance, health care and auto industries? Last time I looked, the Constitution only allowed the Federal Government to run the Treasury, stand up a Military, and deal in Interstate and International affairs. And they definitely do not belong in the education field!
It is time for all of them to be voted out and go back to the system we had prior to WW II.
The idea that anyone can get elected once and then get retirement benefits for the rest of their life is ridiculous. Can you imagine if they even mentioned doing that for the Military, who actually risk their lives for the country. Congress would be the first to shout it down.
I say we vote them all out. Then we allow a district/state to elect someone as long as they are happy with them (no term limits), but there is no retirement except for Social Security benefits based on their contributions from their wages. Additionally, we reduce the pay to a maximum of $100,000 with a COLA equal to the Military COLA. Members of Congress would meet weekly on the internet and 3 times a year in Washington, D. C.. They would only get reimbursed for the 3 meetings at regular per diem on the government rate, not their current exclusive rate. All elections would be braodcast on radio and television at no cost to the candidates, but all candidates must get the same exact time, no exclusive interviews for anyone including incumbents. More to follow at a later date.
