They ARE rather preoccupied with that silly war. I had the hardest time getting across to my Congressman the need to cut down the paperwork on the new tax codes. I have had to open six new LLC's just to shelter all my income from stock sales this past year. I told him to simply tax the poor. There's much more of them than there are of us anyway. They've gotten away with not paying any taxes for years. It's time they pulled their weight too.

My congressman wouldn't listen, that is until I pulled out my checkbook. THAT got his attention.
mostly from the neediest. So maybe they did listen. And I'm telling you, $6 Billion goes along way these days.
