You should research that and add it to his list of “Things I would do to get suckers to donate more money for my campaign”.

For a man who is; according to his followers, going to start a new Boston Tea Party, not much legislation has emerged from his office during his tenure.

I don’t think he has introduced legislation to end it, but he intends to refuse the plan when he retires. I’m sure he’d try to end it if he were president, but realistically Congress isn’t going to give up their pension plan. The only way to end it is to elect politicians who refuse to take the plan, retiring all of the crooks.

The only guy in Congress that doesn’t participate in it, is him as far as I know. No one is forced to participate in it, but they often choose to. They also vote themselves raises, which he votes against. He walks the talk. Wish some of the others were as thoughtful as him.

” It is sad, said Paul, that at the same time Congress is attempting to increase its own pay, it has been examining ways to reduce the benefits paid to veterans and senior citizens.

Not only has Rep. Paul refused to ever vote for a congressional pay raise, but he is also one of the few representatives to turn down the lucrative pension Congress gives itself. ”

Here is a nice tidbit,

“… If someone had 26 years of service, and depending on which of two systems they were under, a Member of Congress leaving office in 1994 could expect a yearly pension of between $52,800 and $86,000.

“This is one reason why so many politicians stay in Washington so long: they get a better retirement plan from the government than they could ever get from an honest job back home. We need to cut perks like this pension system completely; it is immoral that someone spend so much time in Congress that they even should think about getting retirement benefits. And then to expect those benefits to be paid by taxpayers at rates no citizen can ever hope to actually earn is even more unreasonable,” said Paul…”

PS: Adding more legislation to fix bad legislation, is stupid, we need less, or new simplified, and fair legislation.

EDIT: Gotcha, It was like 4am when I wrote this. Zzzzz.

Ron Paul introduces lots of legislation. Not a single bill he’s ever introduced has ever become law.
