Hey Donny, I Know How to Save At Least 96 Million Dollars a Year, and Make Our Government More Effective
Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart
This is for the very old man in the White House. I have a
can’t fail plan which would save our government more than 96 million dollars
each year. It would also greatly improve the efficiency of all three branches of
our federal government immediately.
In the beginning of our country, all members of the federal
government were basically volunteers: they refused to accept monetary remuneration
for their services to our new nation.
Including yourself, 435 members of the House, 100 Senators,
and 9 Supreme Court Justices, we are currently wasting a minimum of 96 million
dollars in base salaries alone. Adding benefits, that number is well over 100
million dollars. Let’s face it, we taxpayers are not getting what we pay for in
the 21st century.
A volunteer government would remove the need for term
limits. Most of our founding fathers served only a single term, making way for
new ideas and new ways of looking at a growing nation, as they returned to
their jobs in the private sector.
No longer would a small group of predominantly old, white
men control a nation with an average age of 38.5 years. America would become a
great nation and thrive like never before.
