I would certainly agree that the wealth of our representation is way above average.    I don't believe many have put money in their personal accounts through corrupt processes though.    

Most came to congress as millionaires, took lower wages to serve, but may well make up the difference in the revolving door into the private sector.   If you want to be angry, consider the high cost of running as a canidate and maybe push for campaign finance reform, a shorter election season, maybe even public financing of campaigns.   We haven't run out of thing to do, we do seem to run out of the will to do so.

I don't believe that most are corrupt, I don't doubt that some are.   Lot's of money and lot's of big ego's in national politics.  

Exactly the same temptations in the private sector

President of the United States:  $400,000

Ceo of Valeant Pharmaceutical Internatiional: J. Pearson:  $ 143,077,442  (357 x greater)

Who really hold the strings?
