Is Carol Gould writing about Dodd, Rangel and Murtha?

Every day one sees yet another shop being abandoned and boarded up; in London some local authorities are allowing charities and small groups to move into abandoned shop premises rather than let them become damp-ridden dumps. As this unfolds, members of Parliament are reported to have been claiming £18,000 for a bookcase and £6,000 for a wooden floor, while engaging in complicated “flipping” arrangements in which they received payments for switching homes every so often.

These politicos live fabulously (Chris Dodd's Irish 'Cottage') while pick pocketing us poor rubes. Where is the outrage as Gore stands to make millions from Cap-And-Trade (Con-And-Transfer)? How about tax cheat Geithner's auto industry adviser who is building a $15 MILLION DOLLAR summer home in Martha's Vineyard! Meanwhile all these schemes, while populist in tone, increase the every man(s) living expenses! The new CAFE standards will IMPOSE a $1,300 car tax on the working/middle class!
