Anyone who votes for a representative because they are able to bring home federal dollars should consider carefully that all they did was bring back what they already took and then not nearly what they took.
You should not be happy that any representative is boasting how he got you something that he already took from you. Remember as well that if they are you getting you something it came from somewhere. Do you really feel that California should pay for some pork barrel job in Texas, or that Virginia should pay for something being done in Tennessee?
We would be far better off if told them to stop taking the money and just let us keep it as individuals. People who boast about being able to get other people's money for their own state are unethical to say the least.
Every person should understand how our leaders think about OUR money.
One Representative of California had this to say in response to a letter sent to her.
Letter: You know we as citizens have to cut back on our spending when our out go is more than our income. If you don't have enough money you need to stop spending so much.
Her response: We can ALWAYS GET MORE MONEY!
This is what our leaders think of us. we are their personal bank. Our money is theirs' to spend on whatever pet project or personal crusade they have in mind.
You work hard for your money. They don't work at all and yet feel they have a right to it!
Then they boast to you about how they're going to spend it in your state or your district FOR you!
It's time we get these spending maniacs out of their various positions. We need to find people who feel as responsible for our money as we do.
