Don't forget, when they deal with our taxpayers money, they are dealing in "theoretical" numbers -- a billion here, a billion there -- most people don't actually know what a billion dollars would look like. Nor does anyone have to figure out how many hours of work it would take to accumulate those dollars. They don't even sign the checks. It's not real money.

Now on their own fotunes, I'm sure they have smart people managing their money. And it all flows towards them, thanks to the lobbyists. No one ever goes broke while working in Congress. If anything, they seem to come in "average" and leave as multi-millionaires. Is it any wonder that everyone wants to run for office, and once there they never want to leave?
