 Warren Buffet is asking!!!! For whatever this is worth....
 



Warren Buffet is asking everyone to forward  this email to a minimum of twenty people on their address list; in turn ask each of those  to do likewise.

In three  days, most people in the U.S. will have the message.

 This is one idea  that really should be passed around.

We're ALL in this mess together ... it's up to us to fix it ...  for our kids!

  Read and pass on to 20 of your  friends...

Warren Buffett, in a  recent interview with CNBC,offers one of the best quotes about  the debt ceiling ...
"I could end the deficit in  5 minutes," he told CNBC. "You just pass a law that says  that any time there is a deficit of more than 3% of  GDP, all sitting members of Congress are ineligible for  re-election."
The 26th amendment (granting the  right to vote for 18 year-olds) took only 3 months and 8 days to be  ratified! Why?
Simple! The people  demanded it.
That was in 1971 - before  computers, e-mail, cell phones, etc.
Of the 27 amendments to the  Constitution, seven (7) took one (1) year or less to become the law of  the land -all because of public pressure. Warren Buffet  is asking each addressee to forward this email to a  minimum of twenty people on their address list; in turn  ask each of those to do likewise. In three days, most people in The  United States of America will have the message.
This is one idea that really  should be passed around.
Congressional Reform Act of  2012
1. No  Tenure/No Pension
A Congressman/woman collects  a salary while in office and receives no pay when they're  out of office.
2. Congress  (past, present & future) participates in Social  Security.
All funds in the  Congressional retirement fund move to the Social  Security system immediately. All future funds flow into  the Social Security system, and Congress participates with  the American people. It may not be used for any other  purpose.
3. Congress can  purchase their own retirement plan, just as all  Americans do.
4. Congress will  no longer votethemselves a pay raise.
Congressional pay will rise by the  lower of CPI or 3%.
5. Congress  loses their current health care system and  participatesin the same health care system as the American  people.
6. Congress must  equally abide by all laws they impose on the American  people.
7. All  contracts with past and present Congressmen/women are void  effective 12/1/12.
The American people did not make  this contract with Congressmen/women.
Congress made all these contracts  for themselves.
Serving in Congress is an honor,  not a career.
The Founding Fathers  envisioned citizen legislators, so ours should serve their  term(s), then go home and back to work.
If each person contacts a minimum  of twenty people then it will only take three days
for most people (in the U.S. ) to  receive the message.
Don't you think it's  time?
THIS IS HOW YOU FIX  CONGRESS!
If you agree, pass it  on.
If not,  delete.
You are one of my 20+ ... please  keep it going, and thanks!
