I believe ALL “professional politicians” are in it just for themselves and NOT for the American people...
And there is a three-step cure for that problem.
First, TERM LIMITS. Get 'em out before they become entrenched.
Next, all political donations to be ANONYMOUS. Can't sell influence if you don't know who is buying.
Finally, ALL laws that apply to any American also apply to any officeholder. No more riches from insider trading that would put you or me in prison.
Take the money and lifelong protection out of the mix and we'll get public SERVANTS, not wannabe MASTERS.
