Add to that by paying these dip chits minimum wage, with incentive based bonuses based on what they do for the country. Apparently these douche bags make 3.4 times what the average American makes, yet they don't do chit for it.
I guess the same as you feel about the unprecedented access of the unions to the whitehouse and their shipping thugs to protest at hotspots around the country and the billions of dollars in dues spent to back democratic candidates. Obama White House is union-owned | The Columbia Daily Tribune - Columbia, Missouri Obama's curiously close labor friendship - Los Angeles Times Democrats talk shzt about corporate influence and money all the while snuggling up to the union bosses and using their money to implement a quasi socialist agenda. How hypocritical it is to even mention corporate donations all the while selling their souls to union thugs intent on enriching themselves on the backs of taxpayers. The unions would be damn near dead in America if not for the government allowing them to unionize government workers. Unions should fly a red hammer and sickle flag outside their headquarters instead of an American flag.
Sabanfan, was that you? No just kidding. This dude needs to be in Washington along with five hundred more like him. One day we may be building gallows on the capital steps if things don't straighten up.
Public disgust with both parties has never been higher, the timing is right, but it will take three things. 1. The electoral college has to go. It is designed to keep third parties from emerging. 2. The winner-takes all primary system has to go. It is designed to keep third parties from emerging. 3. Politicians with balls who are willing to risk leaving the folds of their parties and taking a chance.
The first two depend on the politicians that spend their life fighting for power to make the changes needed. That isn't going to happen without a full scale revolution. The system is set up and controlled to keep a 3rd party out and the two sharing power are very very very unlikely to invite change that threatens their power and control. It is fun to dream though.
