SHOCK POLL: 46% Think Most in Congress Corrupt...
Similarly, a whopping 85% of voters think most members of Congress are more interested in helping their own careers than in helping other people. That’s a record high for surveys.
Protect US?

I've said it many times before and I'll say it again. Voter don't get to vote for anybody for federal office who isn't already owned by wealthy entities. The wealthy entities (Corps., PACs, lobbies, etc.) are the ones who paid for the bulk of their campaigns that got them to the point where they can be voted on. It's the way our system of democracy works. The Supreme Court recently supported large, block campaign donations to candidates. Even the Tea Party is underwritten by the billionaire Koch Brothers.

I think "they" are setting up another "CRISIS! we must do something NOW!" as they did with TARP and it will be business as usual again.
It's a Build-a-burger puppet theater world.

I'll believe it when the equity markets "crash" they way they did right before creating the TARP became "an absolute necessity."
