Subtrek1 Identifies A New Job Benefit Plan For Our Government Representatives Over At The Nashua Telegraph

Subtrek1 posted some interesting ideas at the Nashua Telegraph commenting on an article about stimulus jobs in New Hampshire. Apparently, 700 out of 796 stimulus jobs are within the state government. It sounds like Subtrek1 might be a little jaded, but they certainly have some compelling ideas with regard to effectively changing our representatives benefits:

To All:
Since when did healthcare become a right of the government to provide for US. I believe that in the Constitution we are gauranteed, Life, Liberty and the PURSUIT of Insurance, no that is not what the document states. There will be no TORT reform since the Congress and Senate along with the White House are comprised of laywers. They will do no harm to themselves so that when we vote out these thieves and liars, they will still have a job to work at.

I beleive that we need to reform the Congress, my suggestions are as follows:

1) Salaries reduced for all goverment employees that work with the legistlation branch REDUCED to the USA average (currently about 45K a year).

2) All congressional members housed in BARRACKS style housing, just like the military has to live in.

3) Provide all meals for them from the kitchens of the three nearest military bases at no cost, if they don't like the food use your paycheck to pay for your own eating out same as us.

4) All except BARACK, Joe B and Nancy must fly US carriers in the COACH cabin, and they are supplied 1 round trip per month to their home district.

5) No LOBBYIST's allowed to wine, dine or donate to any members political funds.

6) Foreign trips for business must be placed online and the reasons and people being visited listed, we can then take a online vote if we want them spending OUR money for these trips. They may not take spouses, or lovers and still must fly commercial airlines in COACH class.

7) All expenditures made by them must be listed online for the citizens to view and comment on.

Let's see if they will adopt these ideas, I for ONE would think NOT.
