They get a dollar, they give back a dollar of their salary. Better yet cut the lobbyist dollars to zero. Reform com-gress. Job discription for congressmen. Put the tax dollars to work doing good for the country, not for the good of the corporates and the Pentagon. The media to publish all the laws that are being enacted. WE then be-come active in what is taking place in DC. Then and only then will the dreams of the founding fathers be-come dreams and not nightmares.
