      @Forty Six It's the same side of the coin, same playbook. What's actually environmentally good is typically not what any politician utters. We would not need controlled burns or Forest management if we had controlled our human growth and been much less about dominating the natural world for human greed. Best to also look at the mountain top removal in West VA and the Fallout from fracking--we also have that in CA and have had it since the early 1900's. trumps job was to gut the EPA and deregulate as much as possible--but those supporters of his in rural areas will suffer the most--well their children will--but don't you worry trump will never have to answer for anything he did to destroy the environment because the right few people got richer and those are the folks of the real deep state.

      @Forty Six You are still an idiot. The US Forest Service fought EVERY wildfire for over a century. That is the reason for all the deadfall. The preservation of so much old growth in California compounded the problem. Hardly anyone has ever gotten rich off environmentalism. That is a false equivalency propagated by the obscenely wealthy oil and mining companies that have been destroying the biosphere for centuries and environmentalism for decades, using the same PR firms tobacco companies used.

      Let me explain the punchline : It wasn't so much a joke as a witty observation that actually makes a criticism of the fact that pedo priest face no consequences, that it's a well-known thing and that Congress people are, just like them to an even greater degree when it comes to accountability, which makes it all the more shocking and disturbing.
      Nobody's saying pedophilia is a good thing or sthg to laugh at. I serves as a hyperbole, google the word. And yet, your tiny little brain couldn't do the math, could it?

What's more - industry usually pays better than the civil service for these position.

    Here's a little wish that will never come true: Hard line term limits for all members of Congress. Maximum 2 permitted for senators (12 years max) and 6 terms for Representatives (same 12 year max). Then go back home to your real job!! Oh, and no lifetime golden parachute retirement plan. They get Social Security just like anyone else. Unfortunately, it will never happen.

    The voters main repetitive mistake is addressing these fools as "leaders" when they're suppose to be addressed as "public servants". Meaning, working for the people only. Shorter term limits would also help and keep the constituent needs from being held hostage by the lobbyists. When it comes to politicians, it's always their personal "wants" and goals versus or chosen over the people's needs

      Term limits will simply turn the Chief of Staff for each office into the de facto decision-maker. Politicians will no longer bring their own senior staff; it will stay with that office for decades. The excuse given will be "continuity of government." And since all the decisions would be made by people who don't even have to face our farce of an election process, things would get very much worse, very very quickly.

      The US has now and always has had a lazy electorate, that is when they do decide to exercise their right to vote. How in God’s name do you consistently walk into a voting booth or mail in a ballot and vote for someone who could care less about you and is only there to serve their own interests? How do you not at least read about a candidate and what their views are, their background, and how that will influence the positions they take once elected. I would rather a non voter than an ignorant one. Elections have consequences

      That's why Republicans love the uneducated and are trying to limit education in public schools. They underfund publis education for a reason, they want vouchers for private schools, because there's money in it. It's been proven that you don't get a better education in private schools and in some cases not as good as public schools.
