If he knew how and had competent people, that’d be a possibility. Barring that, no.

So you’re in favor of restricting those who run for office to politicians who know the game. That’s hardly what the Founding Fathers had in mind. They wanted people, regular working type people, not career politicians.

I think what it means is that gaming the system is okay.

We saw this ethic on a national scale during the housing bubble. All of the people who got wiped out were told it’s their own fault for not knowing the fine print.

This sort of behavior used to enrage Americans. Kids growing up had a belief in fair play, ‘truth, justice and the American way’.

We are now encountering a people who don’t share that belief, but who instead live like shyster lawyers.
