    Time to retire Congress!

    Based on recent history, no one in Congress will probably care about this message but it's worth a shot. Ladies and Gentlemen of Congress, you should be ashamed of yourselves! It's very obvious that not a single one of you care about the American people. Your only objectives have been to further your political careers and step on the the spirits of the people. You know, the people, YOUR EMPLOYERS! As a Federal employee you should all understand that you ONLY job is to work together to help make this country better. It disgusts me, and I'm sure most of America, that none of you have done anything to benefit the country. I wish I could work less than 200 days in a year and get paid your salary all the while voting on giving myself a raise. You all have failed and cheated the people of this great nation. Hardworking federal employees (those which Congress is NOT part of) face furloughs and uncertainty simply because all 535 of you act like children bickering over what's best for YOU and not those you serve. If furloughs and cuts come about, it is simply atrocious that none of you will be furloughed! WHY!? How about this, not a single member of Congress or the White House gets a pay check until you fix it! That IS your job isn't it? Oh wait, that's right according to Washington every man and woman who serves the people has to think about advancing his or her political career. Excuse me, I forgot that selfishness and greed takes precedence. Here's some advice that should serve you clowns well... RETIRE! None of you deserve to hold these positions and you'll be doing the country a great service by letting the people who actually matter (the citizens in case you all forgot) elect less slimy, greedy and self absorbed individuals to do what WE THE PEOPLE pay them to do. What's that you say? Just a reminder that you need to WORK and pass bills and perhaps maybe the budget. Leaves your egos at home and stop the bi-partisan B.S.. All of you have a large hand in ruining the American dream. This is not a message to 1 party or the other. ALL OF YOU DO NOT DESERVE A SINGLE DOLLAR, BENEFIT OR SHADY DEAL which you have taken advantage of for so long. I've tried to be civil in order to make my point, but screw you Congress. Thanks for making my children's future so bleak.

    Sincerely disappointed,

    Just a regular hard working American.
