You seem to think that because there is temptation, that every pol will necessarily succumb to it... The power is in the hands of the people, it is their fault when they abdicate that power to those who abuse it... To think otherwise is a symptom of the disease having infected your own thinking...
Don't forget when you mail that $10 campaign contribution to stand at the mail drop and shout: "I got da Powa!!"
You appear to think the problems America faces are a joke... Something to laugh about... ...just another symptom of the disease.
