A politician who understands economics and cares about taxpayer dollars...unreal.

Now turn this thread into a flame war. Thanks.
If every member of congress did this we would save $53,500,000. That would be a solid start.
One of the big problems with the federal government is that politicians and managers are not given an incentive to cut costs - in fact, usually the opposite given the moronic way funding of programs is done. And politicians "buy" votes by getting money for their districts - those who don't bring money to their districts are looked at as doing a poor job. The whole system sucks.

But lucky for us, even with all of its problems, the USA is still the best place to live in the world!!!
