Big money has bought our govt. and it does its bidding. It has corrupted our govt. Most of our politicians are bought and paid for.
That is the one issue they don't want discussed.
NOTE: And this doesn't just apply to the GOP. Do you really think they were only going to buy one party?

While they drive down paved, nice roads they scream at their radio in agreement with Rush Limbaugh, secluded in his mansion, about how bad paying taxes is and how the money isn't used properly.
So instead of fixing the government and making it better to serve us, the people who need government the most, middle class teapartiers and GOP, want to destroy it.
Their billionaire Oligarch owners want that too, but they know what they are doing. They know that without the government, their voting base will have zero power and that will be the end of that.

Corruption reigns on both sides of the aisle. Limbaugh is just as bad as MSNBC, CNN, etc. Who do you think pays that blowhard millions?
