3 MORE STATES NEEDED FOR AMENDMENT...ONLY 3

Submitted by: Myke

COMPARE MILITARY RETIREMENT TO THAT OF CONGRESS   

No one has been able to explain to me why young men and women serve in
     the U.S. Military for 20 years, risking their lives protecting freedom,
     and only get 50% of their pay. While Politicians hold their political
     positions in the safe confines of the capital, protected by these same
     men and women, and receive full pay retirement after serving one term. It
     just does not make any sense.

     Monday on Fox news they learned that the staffers of Congress family
     members are exempt from having to pay back student loans. This will get
     national attention if other news networks will broadcast it. When you add
     this to the below, just where will all of it stop?

   
     35 States file lawsuit against the Federal Government
     Governors of 35 states have filed suit against the Federal Government for
     imposing unlawful burdens upon them. It only takes 38 (of the 50) States
     to convene a Constitutional Convenant.This will take less than thirty seconds to read     
     If you agree,  please pass it on.This is an idea that we should address.
     
     For too long we have been too complacent about the workings of Congress.
     Many citizens had no idea that members of Congress could retire with the
     same pay after only one term, that they specifically exempted themselves
     from many of the laws they have passed (such as being exempt from any
     fear of prosecution for sexual harassment) while ordinary citizens must
     live under those laws. The latest is to exempt themselves from the
     Healthcare Reform... in all of its forms. Somehow, that doesn't seem
     logical. We do not have an elite that is above the law. I truly don't
     care if they are Democrat, Republican, Independent or whatever. The
     self-serving must stop.
