This is the real problem. Congress is making money off of the backs of the American people and BECOMING millionaires because of their position. [quote]Based on 2009 data, there are currently 66 in the Senate and 179 in the House (among current voting members). So while just 1 percent of Americans are millionaires, 66 percent of senators are millionaires, as are 41 percent of House members.[/quote]
