Well done essay, Thom. The system has become overwhelmingly corrupt. The only thing that could be added is the revolving door of bribery by offering very lucrative positions within the bribing corporations after the politician leaves office, which is rampant.

Dick Cheney was an example of this. Again, really great essay! SuZett
