as the country became poorer, congress becomes richer...




'within the halls of Congress, where the median net worth is $913,000 and climbing, he is not. He is a rank-and-file millionaire. But compared with the country at large, where the median net worth is $100,000 and has dropped significantly since 2004, he and most of his fellow lawmakers are true aristocrats.'


and even more telling:

While the median net worth of members of Congress jumped 15 percent from 2004 to 2010, the net worth of the richest 10 percent of Americans remained essentially flat. For all Americans, median net worth dropped 8 percent during that period, based on inflation-adjusted data from Moody’s Analytics.



this is where occupy should be concentrating!!! rich stayed flat, all americans dropped, but congress rose. now....now will people see that change is needed, that term limits must be imposed? that our modern aristocrats need to be dethroned?! it is absurd, that we as a whole pay, but congress, our 'rulers' see their income grow.
