One Thing Congress Gets Right: Funding Their Own Pensions...

Turns out Congressmen make a lot of money...

A study found that while the average American’s net worth increased 3.7% per year between 2004-2012, members of Congress averaged 15.4% annual gains.

That high level of pay means half the members of Congress are millionaires today… and continue to collect their $174,000 annualsalary.

Of course it’s you, the taxpayer, paying that cushy salary.

But did you know the taxpayer also foots the bill for insane retirement benefits for Congress?

Been saying this and don't forget they only work about 6 months a year with all their breaks. They should be made to work everyday except for Holidays and 2 weeks vacation a year. they don't do the required work they were elected to do then they would be mandated to resign without benefits. or repay the government 90% of salary and benefits. Let the People vote on their salary and benefits.

Maybe that's the one thing that the electorate should decide: Congressional pay and benefits
