If elected politicians are servants of the people, please explain to me why when Congress holds hearings these servants are seated so they can look down those testifying.

The term "servant of the people" rankles me to no end. Most, if not all, politicians act and demand that they be treated as royalty.

Most if not all politicians are not “servants of the people”. They used to be. Not anymore. Now they are all encompassing self-serving self-promoting bureaucratic paper shufflers who don’t give a damn about the country or its citizens.
