Billions spent on Campaign 2006

I think most politicians suck. I say career politicians are largely worthless.

After having witnessed both Democrats and Republicans run the country, I can honestly say that neither party really changed my life. For decades, regardless of which party ruled, the divide between the rich and poor has increased and the Middle Class has all but disappeared.

When midterm elections require $2.6 billion, it becomes obvious that American politics can only be controlled by one thing, money. When money rules politics it also rules politicians.

Consequently, the day after the election, fund-raising has already begun for the next election. More energy is put into raising money than drafting quality legislation.

Isn't the whole political system corrupt, not just one party, but both parties and the lobbyists who fund them?

Couldn't America do more with $2.6 billion?
