If "people" were good we wouldn't HAVE to worry about politicians.

The trouble with people is that they are mostly interested in what's good for THEM.

Congressmen get reelected because they tell the "people" in their districts how much MONEY they've brought them. They LIKE their own congressman because of all the money he brought THEM but they HATE the other congressmen because they SPEND too much.
