Our representatives don't give a fuck about what we want. They aren't in danger of losing their jobs in gerrymandered districtsQuote:

If I'm misunderstanding things let me know, but it seems like it's a pretty popular Republican opinion (I don't know many republicans though).

Lamar Smith has taken bribes... ahem, campaign contributions to be politically correct (ugh), totaling about $393K from some media companies. What a douchebag IMO.
Knowing he wouldn't get votes if he ran as the F-word, a Fascist could masquerade as one of the two majors and bluff his way in. (yeah, sorta what I said earlier- just strike out Communist and put Fascist).
How are these things in conflict? Career politicians are the only form of life below lawyers.Quote:

That's a semi-real answer, too. Washington D.C. is corrupt to fuck. Anything they do now is just to placate the public long enough that the public forgets. Then the cycle starts all over again. To preserve what this country is founded on we have to hit the restart button. But only a revolution can have that effect since we've seen elections don't mean much of shit.
Or hey have politicians that actually want to change shit without any self-gratification. They exist but are NEVER elected because they are drowned out in a sea of partisan noise.
