The Congress of the USA has a fund to pay off sexually harassed women (and maybe me too) by Congress critters and staffers! They are using tax payers money to do this.

Saw this on the news earlier today. What kind of Government sets up a process to use our money to make their mistakes go away? Probably one of the more fucked up things I have heard recently.
Same ones that set up their own retirement and health plans
For peace of mind, resign as general manager of the universe
So, while this in itself is maddening, did you catch the part where some things are just so bad that the fund won't pay for it and then they have to use tax payer funds that are supposed to be used to pay for the administration costs of doing their jobs? So, if a Congressperson does something too bad, not only do the tax payers pay to cover it up they also lose efficiency in the administrative processes because money is taken from them.
While this irritates me, it is more irritating that we keep electing the same people even though we see them doing these things.

"That tyranny has all the vices both of democracy and oligarchy is evident. As of oligarchy so of tyranny, the end is wealth; (for by wealth only can the tyrant maintain either his guard or his luxury). Both mistrust the people, and therefore deprive them of their arms." -- Aristotle, Book V, 350 B.C.E
