Congress as a whole writes laws to protect themselves. There is no seperation between parties or idealogical stances. For instance they cannot be charged with sexual harrasment. They cannot receive a parking or speeding ticket in DC. They cannot be made to pay back wasted funds. Term limits and get rid of Benes like health care for life and paid protection for life for leaders.

It is outrageous how generous Congressmen are treated. They have to serve just 5 years to get pension benefits.

Congress has generally shielded itself from health care, social security and many other legislative acts. SSgt Robert Marx
1. Plus: In part this is because they tend to be looked at those people who believe they may be lining their own pockets. Therefore they exclude themselves.
2. Negative: Their benefits and those of their staffers tend to be much better than the average person also they are not as good as the wealthiest citizens by any stretch.
