    "No, No, Raise for Congress this year and for the next two cycles."

     
    Live by your words through your actions and do not preach to others when you do not follow your own words. Congress, I know you are not even thinking about the pay raise this year or any years until the tax payers are employ and standing on their feet. How can you preach and reprimand GMC for coming to you in the need of assistance? But I did not hear anyone recalling Wall Street back into hearings after their weekend party and spending the money on the wrong things again. Instead, Congress you did not do a dam thing to them and I wonder why? Congress, you took your nasty angry out on GMC, Ford and Chrysler which is called "Projection" in the Psychological world. Congress, your salary is paid by the taxpayers and now you have the testicles to give yourself a raise without asking us. No, you may not have a raise. Now, it's my turn to evaluate your work skills over the last two years. Your grade is a F. You allowed Wall Street to get a way with their careless spending without any reprimanding. It makes me wonder if anyone of you were receiving a benefit from the Wall Street transaction. Each one in Congress is appoint to these seats by the taxpayers. The role does not give anyone the right to say unwarranted verbal, behavioral, and positional representative abuse given to organizations, people, or anyone. These incidents have occurred many times throughout the years of 2007 and 2008. I do not believe one year has not passed without an incident. The inner office fighting between parties, sexes, beliefs, money, power, back stabbing and etc must terminate among everyone who represents the taxpayers. Everyone is guilty and no one is innocent and everyone is held accountable for each other's behavior. You are a team no matter what party you belong too. I am sick and tired to hear, watch and read about your behaviors and attitudes. You will begin listening if all taxpayers agree to deny your salary raises and start participating in the financial affairs. We (taxpayers) have rights as well. We can go on strike as well. We do not work, you do not get pay and no one wins. There will be 2.5 million people out of work and you want a salary raise? Hell no, that money can be reticulate to the people who really need it. We need it and some people will never make $179,000 in their life time. You will live by the words you preach to GMC, you will not receive a raise until 2015 and this is 3 cycles of pay raises. You will give the taxpayers a plan of how you will deal with Wall Street abuse of our (taxpayers) money in three months and place 25% interest penalty as well. This plan must be approved by the taxpayers and the voting can through the internet or the voting machines again. We deserve to vote on your salary and not you. Its our money which you all are abusing and giving away. Its our money who must payback for the rich mistakes. It our money not yours....Do you understand? So, do not brush this off......ITS OURS NOT YOURS!!!!!!! http://www.congress.org/congressorg/home/
