(2,517 posts)be an outcast here for my position, but there is little to like about government. It is 10% useful and necessary, and 90% corrupt and bloated assholes getting elected to gain favors and wealth through connections and influence. There is no politician I would dare call friend. They are generally not good people, and their motivations are almost all fueled by their thirst for wealth and power, or both.
It is bloated, and they overspend like they are on a drunken bender with no regard for those from whom they extracted the money. It doesn't matter to them that I can barely afford groceries or gas. And they are almost all the same, even a good portion of the ones in my own party. We are only on their list of priorities when it comes time to vote, after that it seems like they forget who they work for, who sent them there, and why. There aren't more than a few dozen of them deserving of a reluctant handhshake.
