Corruption in our government is running rampant across all party lines. We elect people into these federal positions to serve our interests, but these elected officials seem to only serve their own interests.

Our future is at stake, too many officials become millionaires over night and WE THE PEOPLE are left to fend for ourselves. Enough is enough.

The time to act is NOW. In the following "mock bill" is what I feel should be enacted to save America.
