FINALLY someone who understands the problem
A lot of words and the bottom line is:
provided the voters have the gumption to manage their own employees.
Looking at the current crop of candidates, we are going to have business as
usual. Everyone has used and abused the earmark business. Change is a word
designed to elict votes.

It sure is when Bama says it. sigh

What we need on the ballot is a checkbox for NOTA. Let's let the
terms of the current crop of *******s expire and -not- replace them.
The country would be better off without a CONgress for awhile, eh?

Except for the absence of checks and balances.
The best situation is a chief executive of one party, and a
congressional majority (in at least House or Senate) of the other party.
....and a conservative Supreme Court

The citizens are safest when government does the least.
