Although Sen. Jay Rockefeller comes from one of America’s wealthiest families, he still feels he must travel by private charter at $4,400 a pop and bill taxpayers for the trips, all the while he could take a $206 commercial flight.
He also feels he must charge taxpayers for amounts as little as $12.75 while he is “in and around Charleston.”
His estimated net worth is $100 million and he lives in a $18 million dollar home that has 11 bathrooms on one floor alone.

The first part of the problem is that the people of his state elected him. Whether or not they believed his campaign lies (excuse me, I mean “promises”). The second is that we the people don’t have an easy way to scrutinize the expenses of our elected officials, so we don’t readily know what they bill to us and what for. The third problem is that we keep re-electing politicians that obviously we shouldn’t.
Term limits and remove all the benefits like separate health care, banking and the like (remember the S&L scandal?). Make them live like us and we’ll see real quick exactly who is there to serve, and who is there to be served.
Being a Senator or congressman/woman is no longer about what can I do for my country. It’s about well I’ve got a two/four year vacation, all expenses paid.
How do you think people like him got so rich, it’s simple, make other people pay.
All of the Rockefeller and Rothchild families are parasites on the earth and have caused more loss of life than any in all of human history
that’s how the rich stay rich
And they control both parties
Imagine that a Democrat taking advantage of tax payers next they will be telling your kids what they can eat in schools!!!!!
