Look at Diane Feinstein, she spent an overwhelming majority of her life in elected office, and she is not in the minority. There are many other politicians that share this statistic and had to be removed from office after they have been rendered unrecognizable due to their age and physical condition. Not simply a mere “shell” of their former self, but something more sinister. A ghoulish representative of forgotten constituents, only to be possessed and controlled by unscrupulous handlers, hell bent on having their own taste of power. Instead of doing what is best for an obviously feeble and confused geriatric, these sadists continued to abuse Feinstein because they wanted to maintain their position. I’m sure Feinstein’s final days were spent in a perpetual state of bewilderment, waiting for someone to wheel her to her next stop where she could finally get the blanket and bowl of soup she was promised. Our politicians look like they are in a perpetual state of bewilderment, like John Fetterman waiting for his favorite slinky to reach the bottom of an escalator, or Mitch McConnell looking like he is lip syncing Johnny Cash and doing it poorly. It does not take long for elected officials to grab and try to maintain all of the power they can grab.
This is the United States aristocracy. One can only ascend to the throne of the presidency after someone has held a lesser position of power elsewhere. Did you know that Bernie Sanders has never had a job in the private sector. Never. Not one. How can this be? Because he recognizes the power of the office and the power of false promises to the working class. This is how he and so many others have amassed untold wealth under the masquerade as a public servant. The majority of the politicians are there to serve themselves and through each veiled legislative action, they aim to increase their own power while diminishing the rights of the citizens they are meant to serve. The only way to prevent this abuse of power is to ensure that they are private citizens for far longer than they are in their ivory towers of elected aristocracy.
The longer politicians are in power, the easier it becomes for them to compromise our rights to fill their pockets and serve their own interests. There is a saying, “confidence is directly related to competence”, and that is why I have little to no confidence in our current government. I pray that someday soon, someone will propose term limits and it will pass. Until then, we can watch senators that could pass as stunt doubles for the Crypt Keeper make rash and uneducated decisions that effect the American public so they can appease special interest groups and build another house in Vermont or the Hamptons or at Lake Tahoe. Enough is enough, American citizens deserve better, and it’s time that we started vocalizing that fact. More importantly it’s time we started showing them at the ballot box.
Stay cognitive my friends.
