Schieffer: Politics the Only Product That Gets Worse as it Gets More Expensive
Face the Nation host Bob Scieffer bemoaned the rising price tag of American elections Sunday morning, especially the 2014 midterms, which at $4 billion will be the most expensive midterms in history while producing what will likely be historically low turnout and potentially little shift in actual power.
Can you name a commodity or a product that gets worse and worse, that produces less and less of what it is supposed to produce, yet gets more expensive? Schieffer asked. Maybe you can name one but the only thing i can think of is American politics.
Because centrism, Schieffer added that hes not blaming it on Republicans or Democrats, hes blaming it on Republicans and Democrats who have turned what used to be an amateur sport in to a professional business, where the jobs that volunteers used to do for free have been outsourced to professionals.

What a terrible truth ...the higher the cost and the worse it gets.
