The entitre system is corrupted.... House members are very much protected with redistrictin' an' so they can use their cash anyway they please but...
Senators???? Much difffernt story here... The former S.C. Senator, Chris Hollens, stated in a "60 Minutes" interview that he had to collect $8000 a day in order to finance his next campaign... There's something very wrong when a Senator has to spend hlaf the day strongarmin' folk for dough in order to stay in office...
There's also something even wronger when we have so many jerrymandered House didtricts where folks don't have to do much more than be as far right or as far left to stay in office...
This system is severely broken and certainly not any model of what democracy is supposed to look like...
