We must relearn the hard won lesson of the Founders. Trust no politician. They are all, always, corrupt.
Yep. I believe that too.
My experience has been that, for the most part, people are ungrateful for the sacrifices made to support the country.
So it is primarily the people who are out to help themselves that endeavor to become "public servants".
Perhaps the ‘real’ proplem is people have stopped relying on God and instead have transferred their ‘belief’ into a political system and leaders which are clearly broken...and to date beyond repair.
Imagine the mess when Obama leaves office...who will be willing to take that on who is not already corrupt?
