This NEEDS to happen! Long overdue. How can the laws pertaining to Congress/Senate EVER change when THEY are the lawmakers?? It's absurd. I'm tired of these "career politicians" ! They are Americans just as we all are and should HAVE to play by the same rules as we do. Perhaps then they would be more empathetic to our fears of losing social security/medicare, having to pay high insurance premiums/medical bills, etc....I sure would love to be able to vote myself a big fat raise every year and get it. How can this be happening?! It's simply not fair and in my opinion, CORRUPT! -

I would add at least one or two more to this list,1. Congress will also order through Congressional Legislation or an Amendment to the "Federal Reserve Act", of a full and Complete Audit of the Federal Reserve by an outside private Auditing Company not chosen by the Federal Reserve. If anything in this Audit is out of the ordinary, or illegal, the Federal Reserve will Immediately be 1. shut down, 2,. raided, by either the FBI or the U.S. Marshals Service 3. have all of their computers, documents, files ect confiscated and a thorough investigation will be conducted by the DOJ. 3. Congress would order through the same Legislative Act, for the Federal Reserve to include the price of gasoline as well as all other purchased goods or services in their estimation of what the Interest rates should or will be raised or lowered to. Currently, gasoline is not included in their formula, and therefore the actual costs of living and Interests for loans is not a true and accurate. Also, Congress would also demand through a Legislative Act that the Federal Reserve pay taxes on all of their interest payments made to them from the U.S. Government, more specifically, the Treasury Department. This is or should be or is a taxable revenue source, all other businesses in the U.S. is taxed on their profits, and the Federal Reserve should be no different. This tax on the Interest payments made to the Federal Reserve should be made to go back to when the Federal Reserve Act was 1st passed in 1913. The Federal Reserve has failed to pay this tax on their revenues from Interest paid to them because they have been exempt from taxation for all,of this time, that exemption needs to be abolished, so they as a For Profit Business will be taxed like all for profit businesses are.REPORT COMMENTS

Congress is not living up to its responsibilities to the people they are elected to represent.. when a Republican majority in the Senate and the House have not stood up to a lawless President, and have lied with campaign promises and then voted for and funded every single thing Obama and the dems want to the detriment of the Country and its citizens .. we must stand up and take our power back and this is the ONLY way to do it. There are three branches of government with equal powers or there are supposed to be- however, with dishonest, greedy, unresponsive representatives in the House and Senate, who have abdicated their power and their responsibility, we the people have no voice and we are subjecting ourselves to tyranny.REPORT COMMENTS
