An Open Letter to the Republican Congress

Dear Congress,

    I was just informed that you'd like to take the summer off.  I have just a couple issues with this and wanted to take the time to address that with you.  First, you've said in the past that teachers do not deserve the pay they get because they get time off in the summer.  I'd like to know why it is okay for you to make several times the amount that teachers make as well as getting the same time off. 
   Second, how do you expect to put the American people back to work when you are in fact, not working?  I don't think it's possible. What happened to having the 'dignity of work'?
   Third, I work for a corporation and if I decided to take the summer off when I was scheduled to work, my boss would say two words to me.  "You're Fired."  You seem to be in love with corporate America but still want the same cushy government benefits that you vilify public workers for having.  I guess it's okay if you're a republican?  I wonder how you would react if someone tried to take those benefits away from you?  Hopefully your bosses (the American people) will say those same two words to you in November.  Thank you for your time as I know it is very valuable. 

No Love,

Jill
