		<description>I&#039;m pretty sure every President for a very long time has done that... and whether you like him or not he is a brilliant speaker, you can&#039;t deny that.</description>

		<description>If you want to fix things in this country start with mandating that congress has to be on the same plans.  Want to fix social security?  Put congress on social security.  As long as congress keeps voting themselves raises and voting to be exempt from normal policy, we&#039;re all screwed.</description>

		<description>I have founded a non-partisan startup group that wants Congress to stop passing laws that exempt themselves and undo those laws that currently do. It is just getting off the ground but not to worry it will grow.</description>

		<description>This bill will pass and it will be implemented into law, but after a few years it will collaspe and there will be a strong public outcry against it and it will be repealed.

Its going to devistate the health care industry and fail at its objective.</description>

		<description>Washington and many American citizens have clearly forgotten that the citizens of this great nation are in charge.  Public officials are our employees!  WE ARE IN CHARGE!!!!

We will not allow elected officials to act as though they are above us.  After all, they dont have a job without us!

Lets stand together and take back the power.  We must demand that they all perform appropriately.

If they dont like it -
If they fail to perform -
If they cant act in a timely manner -
If they cant put the people first -

WE SHOW THEM THE DOOR!


Mr. Obama and members of congress,

The citizens of this great nation demand that as you work to establish a new health plan, please note that it MUST include any and all public officials. This includes the President of the United States and all members of congress.

If you find this task too difficult or if you are unwilling to comply kindly let us know and we will gladly find you a replacement.

Thank you,


Citizens of the United States of America



*please also note... should you decide to leave your current position or if you are asked to step down due to failure to meet performance standards, the citizens of the United States will NOT pay for your plane ticket home.</description>
