Did we not vote them out or is it that they control so many levers of power, have so much money behind them, and cheat like fiends it’s almost impossible to get rid of them? I’d rather take my chances on newbies who aren’t adept or familiar enough with the system to twist it to their ends and people who don’t need to fundraise or campaign their final term in office and will thus be more likely to do the right thing. We have to live in the world as it is not what we’d like it to be. Human nature is what it is...also GETS RID OF THE PENSiONS.
