Just for fun, try to identify this outfit of over 500 employees with the
following statistics:

     *29 have been accused of spousal abuse
     *7 have been arrested for fraud
     *19 have been accused of writing bad checks
     *117 have bankrupted at least two businesses
     *3 have been arrested for assault
     *71 cannot get a credit card due to bad credit
     *14 have been arrested on drug-related charges
     *8 have been arrested for shoplifting
     *21 are current defendants in lawsuits
     *In 1998 alone, 84 were stopped for drunk driving

     Give up?

Yup - it's the 535 members of your United States Congress. The same
group that perpetually cranks out hundreds upon hundreds of new laws
designed to keep the rest of us in line.
