I shit you not. The rich are robbing the poor bigly. They are planning to toss tens of millions off healthcare, kill tens of thousands of Americans a year, go back to the good old days of medical bankruptcies, throw Grandma from her nursing home — I guess the old lady can die in the forest like good used up old sow amirite? Isn’t this what ice floes are for?
Not that we are going to have too many ice floes the way things are going but not to worry, highways work pretty well too now that I think of it and also, what with the floods in the South, totally NOT DUE TO CLIMATE CHANGE there are mounds of floating fire ants, hopefully headed to Mar a Lago; but I digress.
Your Favorite GOP Representative, the brave and noble warrior for Good Email Hygiene, Jason Chaffetz, sez this,
“I really do believe Congress would be much better served if there was a housing allowance for members of Congress,” Chaffetz said in an interview with The Hill. “I think a $2,500 housing allowance would be appropriate and a real help to have at least a decent quality of life in Washington if you’re going to expect people to spend hundreds of nights a year here.”
Yes! The poor members of Congress only make $174,000/year but poor ol’ Jason, who is only worth a few million give or take, is suffering.
We, the People, should send him money! Amirite?
Americans, please rescue Jason and his fellow Republicans from penury. Help them get a housing allowance! That way they’ll be better able to help serve us, especially poor people who can’t find a decent apartment, food, education and health care.
It’s only right, it’s the only compassionate thing to do.
I propose we all send a few pennies. What do you think?
