In order to help with the fiscal budget, all Congress members should be bound by the same Retirement rules and need to be part of Social Security as the general public. They need to have 10 quarters of work to qualify.
Why is this important?
Congress wants to balance the budget and in part seems to blame Social Security. Therefore, they should be bound by the same rules of qualification. If deeper cuts are thought to be needed to Social Security, then perhaps Social Security as well as any other public/government retirement benefits should not be afforded to Congress. They need to be part of the sufferage of the mess they put us into.
