🏛️ Should Congress Keep Lifetime Benefits While Americans Face Healthcare Cuts?As debates over government spending and healthcare continue, some critics are asking whether members of Congress should continue receiving generous retirement and health benefits if ordinary Americans are facing reductions in access to medical care or other public services.Supporters of reform argue that lawmakers should experience the same consequences as the policies they enact, saying it would increase accountability and better align Congress with the realities faced by the public.Others counter that congressional pensions and health benefits are part of elected officials’ compensation and should not be tied directly to broader budget debates.The question has sparked renewed discussion about fairness, accountability, and whether Congress should be held to the same standards as the people it represents.#congress #everythingtoupdate #usa #us #news

@wired is out with a crazy new story about what appears to be the real deep state—an exclusive, secretive, off the record, ritzy private club for rich powerbrokers on both sides of the aisle, as well as the rich people they pretend to regulate. Just gross.View all 3,674 comments
