Political privilege

It must be nice to be a politician. Where else can you raise taxes and then travel on the citizens’ dime?

Politicians do not pay for their own gas, so it does not matter what it costs – the taxpayers just pay more. No wonder people go to the U.S. for gas. It’s much cheaper, even with the exchange. In fact, most everything is cheaper. Line-ups are getting longer at the border.

It makes you wonder when the politicians are going to look after their own constituents.
