I'm not sure there is any reliable way to make sure that the people in government or more noble or honest or moral than people in general. I don't consider people in gov't any of those things. I see our current leadership, and the popular ones who makes lots of headlines and they are always involved in some questionable activity. I don't mind folks having a past. We all have one. But to continue those ways is wrong. I think people get in gov't and lose their moral compass. I am for term limits, abolition of the golden retirement net for those who have served. Send the to Washington as a normal joe and let them return as a normal joe. Then they would care about health care, taxes, SS, etc. As it is, none of those problems apply to them, so they don't care. Almost every Senator will retire a millionaire. $15k per month. That is wrong. Two terms in Congress, either house, and then allowed to run for Pres, but that's it. Get out of gov't.
