You've realized already of course.... that these are the benefits that go with being a senator or representative in the US Congress. And there's more perks unlisted. Home district offices expense allowance, nepotism run rampant, open doors, ready seating, many invites, etc...

So tell me, with probably 50,000,000 eligible, patriotic Americans - with these job benefits, why do we hire the loser lawyers, the charlatans, crooks and whores that we do every two years?   

No, they're not all bad, but it appears that they are soooo bad that the good men and women give up after a term or so and come home in disgust!

For two hundred years they have been abrogating their duties and responsibilities as outlined in the Constitution to the POTUS...... so they can whittle down their work week to three days.   

During this same period, the POTUS's have been abrogating and delegating their responsibilities to the multi-billion dollar bureaucrat fat agencies, so the POTUS can spend the four years campaigning or golfing or glad handing. 

The civil service bureaucrats just lap it up -- and regulate and regulate and regulate! Way back in DD Eisenhower's day, he was quoted as saying, "At least in the Army- when I wanted a toilet fixed, I just ordered it done. Now I couldn't get a toilet fixed if the GSA boss was my friend."  Or words to that effect.

Why have we let this happened ---- Will we ever tighten the reins?  

Just asking!
