I've kinda had it with all of the BS

189. In order to fight the corruption, we have to be able to hold them to account....

I'm pretty well convinced that election season is insufficient to serve in this role.
I mean seriously, think about: You can get away with nearly anything you want for roughly two years before you have to start considering your appearance to all the voters. Then, you commit a few acts of progressivism (or conservatism, in the case of republicans), and suddenly you're forgiven all your past misdeeds.

This has been a consistent trend for ages. Its gotten worse because there is more money involved.

To rectify the issue, politicians needs to be under threat of reprimand and punishment,
dictated by the citizens they are supposed to represent.

Add to that, money needs to be stripped out of politics. There should not be the possibility of a multi trillion dollar incentive that conflicts with what is best for the health and stability of the country. PACs, Super PACs, Leadership funds and K street all need to disappear from the political radar, and be banned in all forms and permutations.

In order to make that a real possibility, there needs to be a grassroots ground-swell the likes of which has never been seen in the US, demanding these changes. Most politicians will certainly not vote against their own wallets. They must be led by the nose to do it, by a unified american people.

Then, we can have the strength that conservatives love, while maintaining socio-economic awareness that we love.
