All About Wendy

I have been in favor of that "none of the above" choice for quite a few years!! It makes sense, and certainly it COULD PROVIDE much better choice options. BUTthe implementation would not be simple or cheap.

I think to run for office you almost have to be narcissistic. Some of them are actually wanting to serve. The job tends to corrupt them over time. If they weren't corrupt already.

Hi,

That sounds kind of right, and it gets worse as time goes on because they make rules that favor themselves most of the time, and that invites more corruption. It must take a VERY respectable person to avoid all that, and try to ignore that many of them are already doing disrespectable things. If everyone is doing it, there's nothing wrong with it anymore.

There is probably nothing we can do about it either because they made sure there is no way to do anything about it. All they need is one reason that seems good enough to make a new rule that favors themselves and then it's law. It does not matter if it affects millions of people as long as it sounds good. We have to be thankful it hasn't gotten any worse too quickly.

There are some good points too though depending on your state what you need out of life. I'm still thankful for that.

Thats dangerous thoughts Mr AI
Follow that logic , we end up not voting, or voting for someone that pushes "change" or headlines , no details on policy
