Politicians, particularly those in the U.S., should be assigned to Mordor. I am dreading the upcoming presidential elections and the political dog-and-pony-show that is trotted out every four years with the same lackluster crew of misbegotten candidates who speak around issues (in keeping with the aims of their corporate patrons), while retaining the stilted status quo.
I am reminded of a quote Mark Twain wrote over a century ago that still holds true:
Quote:
Suppose you were an idiot. And suppose you were a member of Congress. But I repeat myself.
