Rand Paul has returned $500k to the treasury department. The article states that this money comes from his operating budget and represents 16% of that budget. Only 16 percent! I did the math and that means that his budget as one senator is $3,125,000. Ka-ching. Assuming that each senator has an equal budget (and I'm not sure that's true because they seem to be real big on seniority and other perks in that body and Rand Paul is a newbie), that means that the senate has an operating budget of roughly $312,500,000. Over 300 million dollars. What the &%$# do they do with all that money? Seriously. And don't forget that's our money. We earned it and they took it.
What a country!
