For the first time ever, more than half of current members of Congress are millionaires, according to a new report from the non-profit Center for Responsive Politics.. . .
So 1% of this nation's population is represented very well by the majority of the members of congress, while the 99% majority is in the minority.
And we wonder why these assclowns are so disconnected with the middle-class, their issues, and their needs? :mad:
You have to have money to to get elected. A good case for election funding reform/limits.
Too bad the SCOTUS isn't on board with that concept.
