If they really want to raise money how about charge politicians $5 for every lie. That would fill the coffers in no time.
$100 for every lie
$1000 for every broken campaign promise
$10000 for every budget in the red
$5000 for every “Fee” that everyone has to pay (ie disguised tax)
$10000 for every useless make-work un-necessary project they vote to use public funds on
$10000 for every job killing piece of legislation they sponsor or vote for
“If they really want to raise money how about charge politicians $5 for every lie. That would fill the coffers in no time.”
Would also reduce the amount of greenhouse gasses warming the atmosphere....
