You and I can see that and my seventeen year old son but not the mass majority of lemmings which can't see past the ends of their noses to see the disparities and misguidance in our politics...And the Repubs never ever do that?Dems are fine with cashing in on political office. Start at the local level, then state, then federal this type of 'get mine' culture is rampant throughout government. The politicians themselves, then their allies, friends, and families.
The entire system runs upon an indoctrinated rationalized illusion of representative democracy covering for rule by concentrated wealth.
