When you march in a band,you should march the same way every else does. I am in
the"Kos" band and I seem to be out of step with everyone concerning Term limits.
Years ago,I sold medical equipment. I was also a "detail man". We pushed our drugs to the Doctor.
Many Doctors would NEVER see a salesperson because they had no time to listen to people who were docs themselves,tell them what drug to use.
Maybe we should treat members of Congress like doctors,make sure they have briefs on
all subjects. The brief would be written by a person with no agenda. The folks who
lobby Congress,would be treated like we medial salespeople were. No free anything,
no visits,nothing.
Maybe we should have a strong petition that only allows public financing. No private
money allowed for candidates. The candidate would only be allowed to use their
own money up to the level all candidates have.a level playing field for all.
Maybe we should have a political system like Great Britain,(no King or Queen)
One political party takes control over the entire Country. If citizens ran out of love
for that party,new elections could be held.
Campaigns would be held to 90 days,period. Now it seems the 2016 presidential
campaign is under way, We are almost to summer 2014. That is absurd.
I am throwing ideas at you. No one in this country thinks much about Congress.
Most folks,however,will keep their seats.
Petitions are great,but we need to change things. Time is neutral. Evil folks make
better use of time then we seem to. Hate the tea-party all you want,many are still
in power. I admit it seems like the tea-party is loosing popularity for now.
They HAVE pushed the Republican party to the right in political thought.
Whatever we have to do , lets try and turn around our Government and make it
like it can be.
We need to fix our Government,its broken.
