Simply what happens when you have a set of rules for one ‘class’ vs. the peasants.
Why would ANYONE care, who’s been voted into office, when they can leave and have the taxpayers pay for their golden XYZ for the rest of their lives; let alone coming out w/ a boat-load more $$ than they ever went in with (insider-trading...which, as per above, would be jail-time for you and me).
Ha. It would take a decent person to care, right? There are a few of them, I believe, but as is plain to see most are dishonest and far from decent … at best.
A state representative used to tell me of the pure evil he felt around him while in D.C. The conversations made my skin crawl and I’ve never forgotten it. He was not a religious person, but his retelling of events appeared to put the fear of God into him.
Needless to add, I imagine, but D.C. was scratched off my Bucket List years ago.
