The Law-Makers






Can you imagine working for a company that has a little more than 500 employees and has the following statistics... 29 have been accused of spousal abuse. Seven has been arrested for fraud. 19 have been accused of writing bad checks. 117 directly or indirectly bankrupted at least two businesses. 3 have done time for assault. 71 cannot get credit card due to bad credit. 14 have been arrested on drug related charges. 8 have been arrested for shop lifting. 21 are currently defendants in lawsuits. 84 have been arrested for drunk driving in the last few years.

Can you guess which organisation this is? Give up? it's the 535-member strong United States Congress. The same group that cranks out hundreds of new laws each year designed to keep the rest of us in line.
