Effort to Replace Entire U.S. Congress Gets Much Needed Professional Help
Larkspur, CA (PRWEB) October 07, 2013 -- In this historic move prompted by the recent avoidable government shutdown, HireMojo is supporting the effort to replace the entire U.S. Congress in an unofficial capacity as part of its civic duty. Affecting nearly all 316M (1) Americans in one way or another, Congress’ inability to resolve budget issues is sending over 800,000 federal workers home according to a CNN analysis(2) and has closed critical governmental services, like the National Institute of Health, which taxpayers have paid to be available(3). By contrast, all members of Congress continue to pay themselves(2).
“Not only did the government run out of money on Tuesday, the nation is set to hit its borrowing limit and potentially default on its debt in mid-October. Together, they serve -- in the words of CNN senior White House correspondent Jim Acosta -- as a dysfunction double whammy.”(4)
“Since 1789, 12,013 individuals have served in Congress, so a 4.5% failure rate with our current 535 members is not so bad,” highlighted John Younger, HireMojo’s CEO. “A healthy democracy requires strong leadership, and we are delighted to help replace the current members with results oriented leaders for Congress that we need and deserve.” Serious candidates will be guided toward their appropriate legislative district and cheered as they displace the incumbents.
“Keeping Americans employed, filling every available job quickly and lowering unemployment are key objectives for us all. While the current members of Congress have certainly done their best, they have fallen short and need to be replaced as soon as possible.” emphasized Patrick O’Heffernan, previous co-host of Fairness Radio, left-right radio for the radical center. “While introducing some levity, this is an effective way to engage the public and give capable people some guidance to be considered.”

You have a talent for listening to many perspectives and distilling the essence of the group’s desires and concerns into a plan of action. Your rhetorical flair and quick wit make you popular in most circles and you often find yourself the life of the party. Now, step up to the opportunity of a lifetime as a United Stated Congressperson where your analytical prowess, negotiating skills, keen intellect and common sense will be embraced and celebrated.
The United States Federal Government offers competitive salary and benefits, including an innovative healthcare plan! In addition to completing this application, the selection process includes being elected in your specific state and district.
Representing ALL the people in your district, not just those who voted for you, we will rely on you to carefully review and decide on over 10,000 proposed new laws or changes to existing laws each year. If insomnia is an issue for you, there is a good chance that reading these bills may be the most effective remedy. That said, the 650 or so that actually do get passed will likely need your highly honed debating and negotiating talent.
While the U.S. population is 51% female, over 87% of the current members of Congress are white, male lawyers averaging 53 years of age, who have a median net worth of $913,000. We applaud their financial success and wish them all the best as YOU replace them with your more intimate understanding of the needs, concerns, desires and values of US citizens just like you.
Beautifully stated in a series of public letters written by Alexander Hamilton, James Madison, and John Jay in 1787, "It is an unfortunate incident that those who administer the government may forget their obligations to their constituents."
