This is a follow-up, from Tuesday's thread I posted at:

and which I just found early this morning. Unfortunately, if past US Congress investigative actions are any indication, this is all smoke-and-mirrors, and will go nowhere substantive, except down "the rabbit hole". I hope it goes to 1600 Pennsylvania Ave and shines the light of day on all the cockroaches, therein.

This wouldn’t be a problem if the “rich” would just pay up....../sarc

Three years ago my company held its annual salesmeeting at the Bellagio. Close to 200 people attended and nothing was sparred, our bill was around $250M. This is obscene.

Of course it’ll go down the rabbit hole, because who’s ultimately responsible? Congress. They’re the ones shoveling the money and power, hand over fist, at the executive branch.

This works well for our representatives. They get their royal titles, generous compensation/benefits and they don’t have to make “icky” decisions. They simply kick back and appear outraged when what they’ve abdicated to the Executive is abused—as if they’re really doing something.

All hail, our glorious leaders from Capital City!

Let’s work hard, so they can party even harder!
