Vote The "Ins" Out And 50 Richest Lawmakers

Patriots,

I am an independent voter, my philosophy is very simple: vote the "ins" (incumbents) out!
Why, you say? Because the longer politicians are in office the more power and wealth they accrue. (See the article below about the 50 richest lawmakers.) So, let's keep voting out politicians, especially career politicians like Brown.
Another reason to vote against Brown is Obama's coal policy. Obama is on record publicly stating that our electricity rates will go up. We currently pay around six cents a kilowatt hour because of coal. If Obama is re-elected we will go to 24 cents a kilowatt hour. This steep rise in the price of coal will shut down power plants in the nation, destroy our coal industry and kill jobs in Ohio. Hence vote against Brown. Watch the video from the Chamber of Commerce below and read the article below about the 50 wealthiest lawmakers. A local politician, U.S. Senator Rob Portman of Ohio broke into the top 50.

Every year since 1990, Roll Call combs through the financial disclosure forms of Members of Congress to put together a yearly index of Congressional wealth. For the second year in a row, Rep. Michael McCaul (R-Texas) is on top of the “50 Richest” list, followed by Sen. John Kerry (D-Mass.) and Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Calif.). Roll Call‘s Amanda Becker has the complete story and list.

One theme that emerged on this year’s list is that about half of Congress’ wealthiest lawmakers reported having a lower minimum net worth than the year before. Though in most cases the difference was negligible, some lawmakers reported a precipitous drop. Issa’s reported minimum net worth in 2011 was about $80 million less than in 2010. Rep.Kenny Marchant‘s (R-Texas) reported net worth dropped by more than a third. Some of the apparent lost wealth can likely be attributed to the new mortgage disclosure requirement.

Though McCaul, Kerry, Issa, Warner and Rockefeller kept a lock on the top five spots, there was movement elsewhere on the list.

One notable newcomer is Rep. Chellie Pingree (D-Maine), who saw her minimum net worth increase from about $500,000 in 
2010 to $28.58 million in 2011 after her marriage to financier Donald Sussman.

Others who broke into the top 50 this year were Sen. Rob Portman (R-Ohio), Rep. John Yarmuth (D-Ky.) and Sen. Ron Wyden (D-Ore.), who even made it into the top half.

Lawmakers who dropped off the list include Sens. Lamar Alexander (R-Tenn.), Jeff Bingaman (D-N.M.), Kay Hagan (D-N.C.) and John McCain (R-Ariz.).
