If this isn’t conflict of interest, I don’t know what is. And that makes it not only unconscionable but ILLEGAL! Why aren’t they being prosecuted to the fullest?

Totally disgusting!!

One of the biggest mistakes American voters make, repeatedly, is to suppose that millionaires will represent them in Congress.
We have been calling the Senate “the Millionaires’ Club” for as many years as I’ve been around and yet the voters never seem to get it.
It is close to stupid to expect that rich people give a damn for the poor–they didn’t amass their riches worrying about anyone but themselves.
To use the parlance of the day, how many millionaires do any of you get to hang with? That should serve as a clue.

The article would have been even more useful if roguegovernment.com had included a link to whatever source(s) identified the “War Profiteer” Senators and Representatives - State by State.

As a citizen of Washington State, it would be important to know if Senator Maria Cantwell and Representative Adam Smith are included in this list (I assume Senator Murray, “The Senator from Boeing” has long been on the list).

Keep up the muckraking. We need such avid stirrings-up if we are to question our elected representatives about what the hell they are doing in Congress “in our name.”

General Butler was right: “War is a Racket” All those who sanction war, support war,profit off war are nothing more than criminals. If murder is a crime, then serial killing is mass murder and isn’t that against our law, our code, our creed our God?
