Congressman complaining about his $174,000 dollar salary and they are also complaining about losing their health benefits and having to pay for them like the average American citizen since there is now an Obama care rule requiring congressional staffers to buy their health insurance in the exchange market. Congressman should not get special treatment. Maybe if we treat the government like the people it will finally become a government for the people.

Congress and Senate need term limits. That way they might have some interest in actually accomplishing something during their tenure. They should also get jail time for accepting lobbying funds.
