But what I'm curious about is, how does that play into the vision of a socialist? That $4000 is more than most will ever have. What is the acceptable limit of somebody saving money and being able to say that they shouldn't have to spread the wealth with others?
We have the impression that everyone in Congress is rich. That is not always the case.

One time CNN did an interview with Rep. Jason Chaffetz, discussing how he sleeps in his office. According to the video, he makes $174k a year.... That's a lot of money to maintain a house at home and also an apartment in Washington DC.

It's really an interesting video...



Not everyone in Congress is rich. And I think we need more of this. Someone like Donald Trump who obviously hasn't been in a grocery store in forty years and someone like Hillary Clinton who hasn't driven a car in forty years shouldn't be making our laws. We need average every day ordinary Americans who understands the impact of the laws they pass.
