Maybe Cantor was a good guy at one time. This item alone shows how corrupt and out of touch DC can make people.
The 4 Ways Of Spending
1) Spend your own money on yourself.
2) Spend your own money on somebody else.
3) Spend somebody else’s money on yourself.
4) Spend somebody else’s money on somebody else.
Guess which category Eric Cantor ( self-professed conservative ) belongs to...
It’s not just DC..............Sacramento, Albany, Philly, Boston.......etc............
Freshman legislators are initially evaluated by how much money they can bring to their political party
and not by how much constructive legislation they can create.
SO the recent Freshman spends 8-10 hours each day to demonstrate their economic value to the party,
and not allegiance to the core values that got them elected in the first place.
The remaining 4 hours per day is spent answering constituent questions and problems, and inquiring about pending legislation.
THis is how it has always been in machine politics , .. and needs to be changed !!
