Your children should have to repay student loans the same as mine are anyone else maybe required to.
This is a wonderful idea...now I wish they would include term limits. In fact, I hope the government does shut down, so the amount of stealing from the American people, will be reduced, at least for a short period of time. What I would like to know...if the country shuts down, won't the Queen of England and the Vatican be upset? You know, losing all that revenue to a bunch of wankers, who can't figure out how to pass a budget? I think another ammendment should be that politicians can't be lawyers, or of royalty...wait, didn't we have an ammendment like that, but was mysteriously vanquished by the people who really run Washington? Here's another good idea...you can't be president if your're related to another president. Just think how many lives would have been saved if this ammendment was in place. But alas, as with everything the government does, they control the opposition, they have rigged the electoral system and have convinced the American people we have a dream....an American Dream and that's exactly what it is...a dream. In reality, this Matrix you have created is nothing more then a dream or program to keep the public unaware of your criminal actitivity.
The super rich have organized themselves into a satanic cult to prey on mankind and to establish their permanent hegemony. Put yourself in the central bankers' shoes, people. The nations of the world owe you trillions based on money you printed for the cost of paper and ink. The only way to protect this "investment" is to establish a thinly disguised dictatorship, using sophisticated methods of social and mind control. This is the true meaning of the "War on Terror." It's not directed at "Muslim terrorists." It's directed at you and me.
this step is really needed.
Start acting like servants of the citizens as Constitution intended instead of driving them. Listen and follow their directions.
THIS NEEDS TO BE DONE NOW.
I am afraid that I will not settle for who and what we are today...we must return to our founding principles or the greatest of governing experiments called the United States of American surley will fall to it's knees under the weight of it's own greed.
Just who in the world do you think you are? You were elected and HIRED to work for us. You already get free top notch medical care, outrageous pensions, time away from job while still getting paid to try for other jobs, more things than I can name. Why should their be a law granting OUR GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEES additional perks? I'm really tired of this as are most Americans! Try living only on the average American's Social Security for a month...try paying your own doctor and medicine bills for a month....try living like the people you represent!!! Come down off the mountain you have made of a beautiful La-La Fairy land where you all lived happily ever after, because in real life - it's totally different. You should not receive any additional goodies!!!
It only hurts when I vote!
The natives are gettiing restless google "We the People" or "912Patriots" and "givemeliberty.org" and become active to restore the true America we all love.
How is it that the ones who make the laws are not subject to the laws? That goes against what this country was built on. Are we all not created equal????
hey whats good for the goose is good for the gander....and vice versa.
Laws apply to all citizens and last time I looked Senators and Representatives had to be citizens in order to hold that position. No one should be exempt especially those that make the laws!
Congress is not above its own laws. They were all citizens first.
It is now time for our Senators or Representatives, and Congress to go by the laws that apply to ALL citizens of the United States. They should not be able to vote themselves a raise or get lifetime benefits unless they serve at least the equivalent as any other government employee who has to work at least 30 years and have attained the age of 55 for full retirement. I feel the people who serve on Capitol Hill do not deserve all these added benefits when not serving at least a minimum of 20 years.
Don't put faith in man. They will always let you down!!!!!!!!!
This is past due!
Our Representatives in Congress are there to lawfully govern their individual States and Territories NOT for their own benefit or above the laws they enact.
It's a sad day when we even have to THINK about an amendment like this!
Although this petition is not well worded I support the intent. Don't continue to make us cynical.
Congress does not represent me, the way things are now because they don't face our problems.
they don't have to worry about Medicare going broke. They will always be covered insurance wise. In fact, what do they have to worry about except to get reelected so they can collect more goodies. I pushed the wrong
button and my addressees got botched. Please send my comments to Barbara Boxer, Diane Feinstein as well as Obama. Thank you

If it's good enough for us, it's good enough for them. Let's see how fast they fix our broken programs. As our elected representatives, they should be more interested in what we think and our best interests, NOT in Special Interest or Lobby bribes to line their pockets.
This fits with the old saying "What's good for the goose is good for the gander". They are no better than we are.
Congress has betrayed the american people.
Maybe if congress had this stiulation we could DENY health care to the illegal aliens.
They have Many babies they can't afford and use the emergency rooms after they are injured in illegal activities. Why can't we stand up any enforce the immigration laws that are on the books.
This should also include health care.
Acknowledge the difference between the Citizen of the People and a 14th amendment U.S. Citizen.
