Whats wrong with- political pay

OK I know I said this would be a WEEKLY blog but since yesterday was just an intro I decided to go ahead and drop the 2nd one today. todays topic is on political pay what is wrong with it and how it can be fixed( it will not be fixed with the guys in office now we need real americans with real american problems).
Now I agree that if a politician is doing a good job they should be compensated actually if they were doing a good job I would think they were underpaid considering a below average pro football player makes more that the president, but the problem is we pay them even while they do a bad job. Worse yet we pay them even after they do such a bad job that we replace them (its like you getting caught stealing at work , them firing you, and you still getting paid for the rest of your life). But we the taxpayers are the ones suffering because its cheaper just to leave 1 lazy crook in office than it is to pay him the rest of his life and hire anouther lazy crook. We are forced to pay their pensions,heathcare,and depending on the office secret service costs.
If you all remember a few years ago the government took the pensions and healthcare away from all the GM and Delphi retirees because they filed bankruptcy this easily affected 1% of the american population if you count all the other parts manufacturers and companies that had to give back to companies to keep them from doing the same thing.
Now on to how we could fix it with a group of honest average americans in office

1. when they leave office stop paying them period make them live off the same socail security they expect you to. Why should they bankrupt the US government and get a pension when they say the workers at GM and others dont deserve a pension.
2. Make them hire their own security after they leave office. The way I look at it, if they did the right things in office they shouldn't need security after they leave.
3. when they leave office or are forced out have COBRA send them a letter offering them the same crappy coverage at the same high costs that we get offered.

Thats it for this week, next weekend my topic will be immigration ,whats wrong with it and what we can do to fix it.

whats wrong with- my first post "intro"

      Hi everyone , My name is Shane O'Leary. I am an average american teetering on the edge of lower middle class and I am tired of the people we elect to protect us( Republican and Democrats alike) trying to push me over the edge into poverty.
     I decided to start this blog for several reasons:
1. To point out the problems of the United States laws,ways of doing business,etc
2. To inform you if possible of one or more ways to solve the problems found, there is no reason complaining about something if you dont have a solution
3.  To raise funds to get average americans that understand our problems get elected .If we keep electing the same wealthy guys we have been our problems will never go away. The guys in office have no clue as to life in the real world
       I am no grammer student for sure so my spelling and punctuation may be wrong sometimes but I will do my best to ensure my solutions wont be.
       This will be a weekly blog with next weeks blog talking about political pay and benifits
and for the donations I will be listing weekly the amount in the fund and if any gets used where it went (I would love to have a program to list it in the sidebar)
