Every President I can remember has written books and made money giving speeches.  Why is that a bad thing that needs to be punished?

They should not be punished for making money; they should be applauded for it. However, in my mind it goes counter to the intent of the Former President's Act. The pension is designed to provide for a former POTUS. Perhaps we could just revise it to take affect at mandatory retirement age.
