[QUOTE="ThatRobGuy, post: 77030923, member: 123415"] It's not that I'm trying to be cynical or "distrusting", it's just that I see it for what it is. "People in government are people"...correct...and what we've learned about [I]people [/I]is that when they're in a position of power, a percentage of them will do things to both A) use that power to get what they want, and B) do what they can to preserve that power. There's no reason to believe that a career politician isn't susceptible to the same sort of "self-interest" "self-preservation" thinking as a CEO or any other "captain of industry". For some people, the only difference between being a "good person" and a "bad person" is access, connections, and the ability to get away with it. [/QUOTE]
