The less these self-important spenders are away the safer it is for us all. Mark Twain was right: "It could probably be shown by facts and figures that there is no distinctly native American criminal class except Congress." - from Pudd'nhead Wilson
Bobby Jindal: Make Congress part-time
Jindal, himself a former congressman, said once elected, many lawmakers become entrenched in Washington and become the very people they once campaigned against.
“Make them part-time, give them term limits,” Jindal said. “Don’t let them become lobbyists. When they have to live under the same rules and laws they pass for the rest of us, maybe you’d see some more common sense coming out of Washington, D.C.”
As the system works today, he said, “you’ve got a permanent governing political class.”
