On a side note, I read this somewhere and thought it was an interesting concept.

*Congresspeople and senators shall contribute to social security just the same as the rest of us

* they are covered (or not) by Medicare, and contribute just the same as we who are forced by law to do so

* Since they aren't be in Washington all that long, they can be private contractors (you know, 1099 at the end of the year)

* their platinum parachute retirements are significantly down scaled

* if ANY sitting President, Senator, Representative, or federal appointed bureaucrat is found guilty of NOT having their federal or state taxes current, they a) are prosecuted by the IRS and b) they lose their job and are NEVER eligible for a federal position again, AND they lose their federal retirement.

* If we find out that they broke the law during their terms, they will lose their federal retirement benefits."

What say you?
