Run for Congress...

No accountability, don't really have to do anything, high salary, no real job requirements except age and citizenship, not a lot of work expectations, and if you are an incumbent your re-election rates are 90% for House and 91% for Senators.

Perfect fit.

On the contrary congressmen are incredibly busy people. Something like 60-70% of their time is campaigning and raising money for the next election. If you aren't raising money for your election, you're raising money for your party. See: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/01/08/call-time-congressi...

Ugh, go read a book.
