The start reality of our representatives is that most of them have their OWN self interests at heart!
Who is more corrupt of the two (Republicans or Democrats)?
Numbers don't lie:
Perceptions of elected officials and the role of money in politics
Asked to name the biggest problem with government today, many cite Congress, politics, or a sense of corruption or undue outside influence. At the same time, large majorities of the public view elected officials as out of touch, self-interested, dishonest and selfish. And a 55% majority now say that ordinary Americans would do a better job at solving the nation’s problems than their elected representatives.
Just 19% say elected officials in Washington try hard to stay in touch with voters back home; 77% say elected officials lose touch with the people quickly. A similar 74% say most elected officials “don’t care what people like me think”; just 23% say elected officials care what they think.
