Sometimes I wonder why any of us bother to vote anymore. If you have the money you can buy your very own congressman, and if you don't have the money, fear not - somebody will buy him, probably a large international corporation like Halliburten.
The voters just play along with this, and no one states the obivious - that the emperor has no clothes.
Call me cynical, but I am just a realist.
Look what are political system has degenerated into - lots of partisan rhetoric combined with political deadlock.
Politicians just play both ends against the middle and add up their offshore bank accounts when no one is around. They couldn't care less about immigration reform because its impact on the wealthy is negligible at best.
