.
You are so right on that point.

Many of today’s lawmakers only have one overriding thought in mind — how can I get re-elected and keep this privileged position.

He/she will do ANYTHING to reach that goal including selling their family and country down the river.

But do not overlook the fact that they are often not intelligent enough to understand that the public cry for various policies is often completely contrived; that a courageous defense of the public against much of the legislation, being passed, would actually improve the chances of many for reelection.

In other words: Do not overlook the just plain stupidity that goes into much of what you witness.
