They do get a terribly sweet deal on health care
and pensions. So they really dont feel the hurt.
Even though they express that they do.

I feel some of the worst are the Representatives.
Slimy bunch in the House. We are worried about
using too much paper at our school, and try
to cut back on dry erase markers. You know,
the real luxury items. And we fawn over someone
who brings their own stapler that can staple more than
6 pages together unlike the ones supplied.
Tis a sad life. But fun.
