There is one part of that that is well-written, and it is 100% true. The problem is, it is ABSOLUTELY true for ALL of Congress, not just one side. Liberals have such blinders on because they THINK that a massive federal gov't, run by only liberal-thinking sociopaths would actually be a good thing. HINT -- a massive federal gov't run by sociopaths, no matter if "liberal" or "conservative" or something in between is still massively bad for the people. Once liberals figure this ONE thing out, they will understand just how badly BOTH sides of the American people have been screwed and will be screwed ever-worse in years to come as this bureaucracy keeps growing. Remember, EVERY member of Congress, on BOTH sides, take their salary, AND they TAKE about $1.2 MILLION in taxpayer money EACH to hire a "staff to look after" their "every wish." The reality is, these sociopaths live like someone worth hundreds of millions EACH (and some actually have tens of millions more personally), but it is courtesy of the taxpayers, and it is CRIMINAL. Why do the people allow this OLIGARCHY to exist?

"Fear of what? Fear of not being a Congressperson. Fear of losing your job. Fear of not having a staff to look after your every wish. Fear of not being cheered at the next town meeting composed of people you're already afraid of. Most of all, fear of returning to everyday life back home. But, of course, there is always the lucrative alternative of lobbying, where you can stay in Washington, go to all the parties and fundraisers, write the checks instead of taking the checks, and hobnob with all those other former members of Congress who, like you, decided not to go home."
