The Wealth Gap Between Congress and Voters Is GrowingBoth The New York Times and The Washington Post have separate reports today about the widening wealth gap between members of Congress and the people they represent. Almost half of all Congresspeople are millionaires and their median net worth has climbed to $913,000, compared to $100,000 for the rest of America households. According to the Post, that number drops to $725,000 when excluding home equity (and adjusting for inflation), but the same median figure for American families is just $20,500. And that gap has only grown wider in recent years. I think that it is now time to look at the process by which we elect persons to represent us, making it more adaptable for the average concerned citizen to be elected. As we become more involved in the process we can be more affective in solving our nation's economic problems. I am a candidate for President 2012, and I could not qualify in two important states because I could not raise the, $1000.00 filing fee, in one state and $2500.00 filing fee in another state, and facing the coming primaries, getting on the ballot is to me a maize, you practically need to research the complete laws of ballot access in each state to decide which state is more suitable for running, and possibly winning, which drives up the cost of running a campaign, requiring massive fundraising, requiring more attention to fundraising than the real goal of running for office to serve the American People.
