Elected Officials should be 1 Term only with no Pentions and Medical benefits when they leave office. Then you will see who really wants to help the country when you take these gigantic insentives away. I had a life long friend who was an elected official. I asked him why he wanted to do this job. He replied to me. " How long do you have to work to get a Pention." I said, 30 years. He then replied, " In 4 years I'll have a pention and medical benefits. How can you beat that. " Do I have to say any more. Why don't you Americans get it. It's what your all working for. Isn't it ? Believe it or not, it's one of the huge perks for getting into office. As you know there are many others. Do you really think they give a grap about you. The new republicans will go bad with the rest of the bad apples. It's just the law of nature.
