5 week vacation? Does congress actually WORK? They're like leaches, sucking the public dry, while doing absolutely ZERO WORK! It also seems like a convenient time for them to "vacate". The world's most deadliest virus has landed in America, and they're off for 5 weeks? Probably heading for the underground bunkers.

Ebola is hardly the worlds deadliest virus though. Bad news if you get it, but it's not very communicable.
More people have died of Flu in Africa during this outbreak than Ebola has killed.
Ebola virus (EBOV) causes a severe hemorrhagic disease in humans and nonhuman primates, with mortality rates as high as 89%
I'd rather have the flu.
Number of deaths: 1,532 Deaths per 100,000 population: 0.5

I, for one, want NOTHING the government has to offer. Not their money, their cheese nor their "vaccinations". I'd rather die!

Yeah, some people around here are getting spoiled, they want government match on everything, even stuff that is not really necessary or wanted by the majority of the residents.
