Congress For the People?
Congress is, was and always will be Self-Serving. We elect them to do what is best for the country and they end up doing what is best for themselves, their pet companies or which ever lobbyist gives them the best deal (lobbying used to be a crime too--it was called bribery--but Congress took care of that!). They have been working overtime to repeal Obamacare because starting January 1 of next year, they will no longer have Federal Health insurance. They will be required to go through the exchanges like everyone else---but you know they won't do that, they are all very wealthy and some belong among the super-rich (which makes me wonder why we pay them at all)--no, they will buy their own private insurance (maybe some have it already). Privatization is only good for one class of people--the class that can afford the finer things in life while the rest of us have to scrounge for crumbs from their tables. In this country, socialism is touted as evil. People still fear Communism. But what we do have they overlook or pretend is what is great about this country--what do we have? We have a Fascist state, we are only lacking a dictator who will abandon the Constitution. Fascism, according to Mussolini, is another word for Corporatism. And we already worship at the feet of Corporations. How soon will it be before we accept their appointed representative as our Fearless Leader?
