While I can't come up with specific examples off the top of my head, I do agree with you. It's been my general impression that there's a lot of folks out there that have some odd sense of entitlement, and, seem unwilling, or unable to take personal responsibility. It's always someone else's fault, or someone else's job.

With each new bill comes more votes for the same group creating and passing these bills without a care for anything other than pandering for votes in the next election. It is not about for the good of the people anymore. It is for the good of careers of those signing bills that they have yet to read.

I really think we need congressional term limits. There should be no such thing as a professional politician. Senators like Fienstien and McCain, should not exist.

IMO, DC is wildly out of control and ignoring any of the parchment of rules and regulations drafted over 100 years ago. Because, well, they know better.

Here's a thought. These people, these professional politicians, these people who are supposed to be our representatives but really aren't, have made it their lifetime career choice to know how to tap dance around the laws of the land. They know all the loop holes and how to skirt around the law when they decide it's inconvenient to whatever agenda they are pursing.
