WhyI'm leaving the Senate

[Elspode]

The days of working for the good of American citizens are long gone. The only thing that matters now is making sure that the laws and appropriations are directed into the pockets of those who can make our elected officials rich in turn.

I'm going to keep saying this until something happens to convince me that I'm wrong: It's all about the money. It isn't about anything else, ever, period.

I'll not be holding my breath while waiting for it to change.

It is also about holding on to power and position. Other than that I have to give you an "amen".
