response to letter from Sen Nelson, sent on a copy of his letter to me

July 5, 2011

Senator Nelson:

I find it hard to believe you actually took the time to read the letter that this check was enclosed with. How absolutely arrogant of you to believe that a check made out to the U.S.Treasury was for your benefit. I would prefer to believe that one of your staff members responded and you never took the time. How disappointing.

The letter, which is attached, asked two things,

1: That you forward the check to the treasury to reduce the National debt. How is that unethical?

And

2: Would you match the 1% of my income I am donating to reduce the National debt. (this was not the case with this first letter, only later ones)

To this end I am resending you my check for the week of 4/21/2011 and this weeks check as well.

Please see that they are forwarded to the US Treasury to reduce the PRINCIPAL of the National Debt.
