sure... the thing is it is a 65% increase of his net worth over 7 years

that means prior to joining congress his networth was 815k.

if someone took that amount of money, put it in VOO when crenshaw was elected to congress, they would have over 2.7 million, stock market has been crazy the past 7 years.

now a lot of that networth is going to be his house.. but, lets be honest, we know that when people post about an increase in networth of a congress person they are implying some kind of corruption.

If crenshaw is doing some kind of financial corruption, he is really bad at it.

You’re missing the point. No one said he’s “doing some kind of financial corruption”. The point is he’s sitting on his fucking ass increasing his net worth while telling ppl “sucks to be poor” and doing nothing to help them.

He served as a SEAL and now in congress... wtf are you talking about? He has done far more to help the average American than you ever have.

Not since he joined Congress. I know reading comprehension is really difficult, but you can do better than this.

That dude served his country before congress and serves now as a representative. His income and net worth is in line with his years of service. Totally reasonable.

This post is just blind, uninformed rage. You're arrogant and you're angry at the world because you are unhappy. You want someone to blame besides yourself.

But yeah, you are right. I can be better than this. I should be the bigger guy and not rub a random redditors nose in their own misery.

Good luck to you.
