Doesn’t do the general public any good, they’re all mostly corrupt.

************

If they’re not corrupt when they get elected they soon will be. The Swamp is a very corrosive environment and its political machinery quickly turns good people into ‘pliable’ ones. That is an indisputable fact and there’s even a term for it: Potomac Fever. Contracting this ‘disease’ causes people infected with it to start representing DC instead of the folks back home who elected them.

geez, sounds like prison:

If they’re not a crimal when they get inside the penitentiary they soon will be. Prison is a very corrosive environment and its political machinery quickly turns good people into ‘pliable’ ones.
