“No aid to any foreign nation. No exceptions.”

Absolutely. I think most people believe that. Sadly, in our Constitutional Republic the people we vote to speak for us end up not doing that.

It probably takes about two years before a pol is compromised (blackmail, bribes, threats, gifts, etc.) until the constituents’ best interests are no longer a thing.

Maybe a pure democracy would’ve been better.

Think about this: if they didn’t FREEZE apportionment of congresspeople you’d have 5,000 reps now.

Much harder to bribe, cajole, etc.

They froze the number at 435.
