Gov't officials should be denied the same benefits they deny |

the average taxpayer. As taxpayers we should not have to fund their insurances and benefits and salaries that go beyond the work year. I guess I know why no cut backs are ever looked into, and wonder what the dollar sums are for these "entitlements". Anyone know? It seems fair for the union bashers not to have what is basically beyond "union" benefits. Afterall, gotta stay competitive.

going to the House and Senate should be among those on the list who don't get paid. It's their fault.
