Something is terribly wrong when government workers salary & benefits combined are higher than workers in the private sector. It's the result of politicians agreeing to unions outrageous demands. That's why voters should enforce term limits, then members of congress won't have as their first priority their own re-election. They'll say No to union demands because it won't matter if those dictatorial institutions tell their members to vote against the politician - once they hit their term limit they're outta there. Now if voters would make that their #1 priority, we could eliminate many abuses of congressional power including spending more than taxpayers can afford.
