Congress serves only itself

In the past decade, Congress has voted itself a raise seven times. In the same decade, it has repeatedly denied the working poor a raise in the minimum wage. The cost of living has skyrocketed. Who does Congress serve?The deficit is the most incredible it has ever been in the history of America. The argument has been that if you raise the minimum wage, jobs will be lost. Well, I wish that was the case with Congress.This is a national disgrace. Vote all of these bums out of office. They have long ago stopped serving the constituents they swore to serve.
