I think that it is a damned shame that this idea has so much merit.  In an area where principles and ethics should be king, we find ourselves needing to tell our representatives just what that means in simple enough terms so that maybe they will get it...


Stuart & Kathryn Fields,

This will take less than thirty seconds to read.  It makes sense.  If you agree, please pass it on.

You are one of my 20.

Subject: An idea whose time has come

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 didn't pay into Social Security, 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 Health care Reform that is being considered...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.  This is a good way to do that.  It is an idea whose time has come.

Have each person contact a minimum of Twenty people on their Address list, in turn ask each of those to do likewise..
       In three days, most people in The  United States of America  will have the message.  This is one proposal that really should be passed around.

       Proposed 28th Amendment to the  United States  Constitution:
        "Congress shall make no law that applies to the citizens of the United States that does not apply equally to the Senators and/or Representatives; and, Congress shall make no law that applies to the Senators and/or Representatives that does not apply equally to the citizens of the  United States".
