Because those empowered to make and enforce our laws— sworn to be good stewards of the public interest— allowed themselves to be seduced and inducted to serve private interests, not the least of which their own, courtesy of campaign contributions, lobbyist largess, lucrative job prospects, and other co-optive emoluments known anywhere else in the world as bribes. When will we learn that it’s not about politics, ideology or principle? It’s about the money! But drop me a line the next time you hear any corporate or mainstream media pro daring to talk or write about it in those terms. Somehow, as obvious and pernicious a role as it plays in our political process, discussing venal motive is off limits, part of the pretense that our elected officials actually represent the best interests of the people who voted for them (as distinguished from those who bankroll them)....<br />read full comment at http://calltoaccount.wordpress.com/Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-53246864840716464.post-85799745565524018382009-10-30T12:16:24.442-07:002009-10-30T12:16:24.442-07:00This is great.

They will literally say anything to do their masters bidding won’t they?<br /><br />This filth pig sty called The US Congress needs to be cleaned up in a hurry. But they have knitted a complex web or rules and laws over the years to insulate themselves from our wrath.<br /><br />And the campaigns never really address the filthy wrongdoings do they? No of course not. Because each candidated is a dirty piece of filth. One more dirty than the next.<br /><br />Since it will be hard to clean this stain up legally how can we get it done?<br /><br />Ultimate Janitor.Ultimate Janitornoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-53246864840716464.post-58551982003456210152009-10-12T11:09:20.602-07:002009-10-12T11:09:20.602-07:00Most people do not realise how bad the economy rea...Most people do not realise how bad the economy really is. The mainstream media are associated with the government and corporate interests. Therefore they are not necessarily telling the truth, especially when the truth could disrupt the current social order. See:<br />http://www.naturalmoney.org/howbad.html<br /><br />It is possible to achieve a much greater prosperity, with maximum capital growth without inflation, large debts, economic crises, unproductive government intervention and the unproductive part of the financial sector. Natural selection will ultimately determine the most efficient economic system, despite the political power structures that still exist at this moment. The investigation of alternatives and dissemination of knowledge will accelerate this process, but the ultimate outcome will not change.

But if anyone admitted this was so, it would be BRIBERY, which is illegal. It would also mean they were breaking their oath to uphold the Constitution, which requires them to represent their constituents.<br /><br />If congress ever admitted that, they'd have to roll back the corruption and do without a lot of perks that they've grown rather fond of.
