You thought I was in charge?
Well, then, let me rephrase this, as if I were in
public office:
"There is seious doubt that those who make millions at the public trough are representing the people, but are representing themselves, their cronies and self-perpetuating criminality in government. Therefore I call for laws requiring full and immediate disclosure and a full accounting of every public dollar, program and person, with the only exception of bona-fide military secrets, of which there are few."
Public service is a privilage, not a road to riches.
Unfortunately, without accountability, the government-industrial cozy complex absorbs people like the Bushes and Cheneys, who use government to wheedle massive contracts, to hide, lie and deny, and thousands more like them in the covert branches secretly swindling and publicly extorting taxpayers and causing mayhem worldwide.
Secretly meeting with industrialists while calling it "national security" is a perversion of the Constitution.
Calling for disclosure and accountability is not. |
