And if you think we should not discuss politics, what about bringing religion into it?  I don't see what this has to do with Christ. (i.e., "fachrissakes" comment).

  Dear Mike,
  This forum is often used to share information and ideas that have no
  connection to Panteras, automobiles, etc.
  That's why the message was prefaced with NPC (Non Pantera Content). I
  thought the suggestions proposed made sense. they don't favor or
  promote aA
  either political party or any specific candidate, they are list of
  proposals that would eliminate the special treatment that the Congress
  and Senate have voted into being for their own benefit. I believe that
  they should be subject to the same laws and conditions that the rest of
  the populace are subject too. The message also said if you disagree
  ignore or delete the message. It wasn't inviting a dialogue or debate.
  It was sent to me with a request to forward it to 20 people. I thought
  this list was the best place and way to reach a large number of people
  with above average intelligence and a diversity of political beliefs
  and philosophy's. If you don't like it or disagree with it I suggest
  you follow the directions listed that A sayA
  "If you agree, pass it on. If not, delete."

    NPC Warren Buffets suggestion to fix problems with the Senate,
    Congress, and the economy. If you agree forward it to 20 people, if
    you disagree delete it or do nothing.

    A  A  A  A  A  *WHO CAN ARGUE WITH THIS MESSAGE?*
    A Warren Buffet is asking each addressee to forward this email to a
    minimum of twenty people on their address list; in turn ask each of
    those to do
    likewise.A  A In three days, most people in The United States of
    America will
    have the message. This is one idea that really should be passed
    around.
    A  A  *I REPORT, YOU DECIDE.*
    A  *The BUFFETT Rule*

  A  We must support this - pass it on and letas see if these idiots
  understand what people pressure is all about.
  A  Salary of retired US Presidents .. . . . .. . . . . .. . $180,000
  FOR LIFE
  A  Salary of House/Senate members .. . . . .. . . . $174,000 FOR LIFE
  This is stupid
  A  Salary of Speaker of the House .. . . . .. . . . . $223,500 FOR LIFE
  This is really stupid

  Ditto last line
  A  Average Salary of a teacher . . .. . . . .. . . . . .. .. $40,065
  A  Average Salary of a deployed Soldier . . .. . . .. $38,000
  A  I think we found where the cuts should be made! If you agree pass it
  on, as I just did.
  A  Warren Buffet, in a recent interview with CNBC, offers one of the
  best quotes about the debt ceiling:
  A  "I could end the deficit in five minutes," he told CNBC. "You just
  pass a law that says that anytime there is a deficit of more than 3% of
  GDP, all sitting members of Congress are ineligible for re-election".
  A  The 26th Amendment (granting the right to vote for 18 year-olds)
  took only three months and eight days to be ratified! Why? Simple! The
  people demanded it. That was in 1971 - before computers, e-mail, cell
  phones, etc.
  A  Of the 27 amendments to the Constitution, seven (7) took one (1)
  year or less to become the law of the land - all because of public
  pressure.
  A  Warren Buffet is asking each addressee to forward this email to a
  minimum of twenty people on their address list; in turn ask each of
  those to do likewise.
  A  In three days, most people in The United States of America will have
  the message. This is one idea that really should be passed around.
  A  Congressional Reform Act of 2015
  A  1. No Tenure / No Pension.A  A Congressman/woman collects a salary
  while in office and receives no pay when they're out of office.
  A  2. Congress (past, present, & future) participates in Social
  Security.
  A  All funds in the Congressional retirement fund move to the Social
  Security system immediately. All future funds flow into the Social
  Security system, and Congress participates with the American people. It
  may not be used for any other purpose.
  A  3. Congress can purchase their own retirement plan, just as all
  Americans do.
  A  4. Congress will no longer vote themselves a pay raise.
  Congressional pay will rise by the lower of CPI or 3%.
  A  5. Congress loses their current health care system and participates
  in the same health care system as the American people.
  A  6. Congress must equally abide by all laws they impose on the
  American people.
  A  7. All contracts with past and present Congressmen/women are void
  effective 12/1/15. The American people did not make this contract with
  Congressmen/women.
  A  Congress made all these contracts for themselves. Serving in
  Congress is an honor, not a career. The Founding Fathers envisioned
  citizen legislators, so ours should serve their term(s), then go home
  and go back to work.
  A  If each person contacts a minimum of twenty people, then it will
  only take three days for most people (in the U.S.) to receive the
  message. Don't you think it's time?
  A  THIS IS HOW YOU FIX CONGRESS!
  A  If you agree, pass it on. If not, delete.
