Someone explain to me why millionaires, who could retire and lead the life of Riley of no stress, would choose to enter the dirty, disgusting, and utterly unrespectable field of being a politician.

Someone please explain that to me. Aren’t their millions enough? Why would someone volunteer for that kind of stress and annoyance?

Excellent point, Lizavetta. I have never understood this motive myself, but maybe it has to do with a desire to "make a difference" after making a whole lotta money.

I think you are right, vox.....it’s a chance to GIVE SOMETHING BACK....some of us are compelled by that, as others have other compelling drives.....We need MORE conservatives with that compelling drive.
