If you want to live the high life, you don’t have to become a rap star, a professional athlete or a
Wall Street banker. All it really takes is winning an election. Right now, more than half of all the
members of Congress
are millionaires, and most of them leave “public service” far wealthier
than when they entered it. Since most of them have so much
money,
you would think that they would be willing to do a little
“belt-tightening” for the sake of the American people. After all,
things are supposedly “extremely tight” in
Washington D.C. right
now. In fact, just the other day
Nancy Pelosi insisted that there were “
no more cuts to make” to the federal budget. But even as they claim that things are so tough right now, our
politicians
continue to live the high life at the expense of U.S. taxpayers. The
statistics that I am about to share with you are very disturbing.
Please share them with everyone that you know. The American people
deserve the truth.

years. They foot the bill of more than $40,000 for the shoeshine
attendant last fiscal year. Six barbers took in more than $40,000 each,
including nearly $80,000 for the head barber.
Keep in mind that there are only 100 U.S. Senators, and many of them don’t have much hair left at this point.
But hair care is just the tip of the iceberg. The following are 21
other ways that our politicians are living the high life at your
expense…
