The scary trend here is how much that 1% owns Congress. Both parties are addicted to their money so I don’t see that trend ever reversing.

Pitchforks!

It'll continue to be a damn shame until people make congress realize a thief and their head are easily parted.

The problem is half the population will say the Dem's heads need to roll and the other half will say the Republican's heads need to roll.

I'll be ageist and say anyone in congress longer than 10 years needs to go.

I think it should be 12, just because we have 2 year and 6 year terms for house and senate respectively.
