One of my best friends worked in the Senate and the House. He described people in Congress (Senators & Representatives) as almost being mini-CEOs. You have an army of staffers doing everything for you 24/7. You have a dope office to work in. You (hopefully) have plush assignments on committees. You have most of your meals and travel comp'd. You get to feel powerful as you're voting on shyt that directly affects the country. And while he aint say this part, you know damn well they're doing shyt behind the scenes to enrich themselves somehow. Them nikkas are NEVER giving that shyt up. That's why they be 80 years old still running for election when they should've been stepped down. And to be honest, I walked through the Capitol Building twice and that shyt does look dope inside so I probably wouldn't step down either
