I want to know why after WE THE PEOPLE gave you Republicans control of Congress you pissed away all the good chances you had to make thing right. Why did you let Obama Care rape the people of their existing health care plans and now are being charged so much more than the policies they had and were forced to give up?
Why is it that Congress has raped Social Security of the money WE THE PEOPLE have paid in and you, OUR SERVANTS have so wastefully put it in the position of default?
Why is it Congress doesn't fall under Social Security instead you voted yourselves a fat retirement even though you don't have to serve 20 years like us VETS who put our lives on the line?
Why don't you all fall under TRICARE like us vets seeing how we are all government employees?
Why is there more millionaires in Congress than any other group in the States?
Why don't you all have term limits like the president?
You all have pissed off the majority of people off in the United States, that's the reason Donald Trump is now the GOP candidate. Just because none of you did your jobs is the reason he's there. Are you going to support him or what?
I really don't expect you to answer any of my question and if you attempt I will not be surprised by a run around reply instead of a down to earth face to face answer which most of you career politicians fail to do!
Thanks for your time

SGM Mikel Dawson - I have respect for the Marine Corps, the ideals, and the uniform. I was merely vocalizingmy opinion, is that not allowed anymore? How can you be forced ("raped" according to you) into paying Social Security or Welfare? No one asked you to live in this country. If you don't agree with the policy and want to verbally berate the politicians who try to help us (granted not all politicians are great), there is a simple solution, move to a country who's principles coincide supplementary with yours. Again, it's hard to voice a conflicting opinion without coming across as abrasive. I do apologize for my hostility.

PO1 Joseph Frazier
SN Desley Snyder - Considering NOT a single Republican voted for the AC because it was a BAD bill should tell you something. If you think Democratso going behind "closed doors" and writing the bill without Republican input is called working together, then you may need to reevaluate compromise. Further,the Democrats refused to vote on any Republican Amendments to the bill. Finally, how much of the law have you read? I read 90% of it in college for my research paper. The ACA is a TERRIBLE law that has caused Healthcare costs to increase and people lose the health insurance they liked.

SPC (Join to see) The states get Federal money. The states are basically just a funnel tooczl governments yo handle the situation. Of course you do need to realize some Vets feel safer on the street. The City of El Paso Texas has some 40,000 on the waiting list for housing. Its not a problem easily solved nor can it be done quickly

Will term limits ever be considered for the senate?
I understand that it must not appeal to you considering you have served for 32 years.

SFC Casey O'Mally
SPC (Join to see) Congress shouldn't be dealing with foreign leaders. Not their job. That's the executive branch, specifically State Department, with career diplomats. Even then, we have Ambassadors who are political appointees and replaced pretty regularly. But they are supported, again, by careerists. No reason rollover in Congress causes any problems for foreign relations.
