Congress is forgetting its duty: to improve jobs and wages for Americans
We are living in a political world of the UniParty; it’s sort of like the Chicago Mercantile Exchange, a historic commodity and – in these modern times – financial derivative exchange based in Chicago.
Naturally, the UniParty isn’t quite as obvious as the Chicago floor traders standing in a trading pit, calling out orders, prices, and quantities of particular commodities while dressed in color-coded jackets indicating their function on the trading floor; nor are those in the Senate usually observed gesticulating with complex hand signals to communicate the buying and selling process.
Yet the techniques are not fundamentally all that dissimilar; while the CME conducts business out on the trading floor, the Senate conducts its’ “business” behind closed doors, in secret. Either way, the quid pro quo (“something for something”) dealing takes place within both of these trading organizations.
