Banks Repaid Fed Bailout With Other Fed Money: Government Report
Friday, March 9, 2012
When people go into politics as a career instead of as a public service that one does for a limited times, servicing the democracy, this is the result.
These are ambitious people who see government as a means to stake themselves to fortunes, power and glory. And that's really the weakest loophole in the Constitution. It wasn't anything that the founders intended, but couldn't address in the document without the whole game falling apart. They'd hoped that common sense, wanting the country with a government where everyone is born with equal opportunity, fair and just, to work out, prevail, so much that Americans wouldn't exploit the loopholes for their own selfish personal gain.
The switchbacking of politicians between government and business is one of the biggest contributors to our nation's failure. IMHO, once you finish your term in office, you should have to go home, or anywhere else, but not remain in politics. Get a real job, with a real life!
