I think most servicemen are great people who are making sacrifices for my freedom. But the point remains. The MIC owns both parties
And as I said, I would have told Warren to pound sand until Congress agreed to the same 4 year stipulation.
The fact that you feel dirty and need a shower should prove maybe that feeling dirty has more to do with your belief being dead fricking wrong than because Warren also agrees with you.
I absolutely believe if we’re putting these limits on govt employees, it should include congress to lobbyists as well.
quote:well no one ever gets “hammered” for their corruption so WTF are you talking about? I’m for putting in rules that hold our govt officials accountantable. I don’t know if Big Chief warren’s bill is answer, but something needs to be done about our govt employees being millionaires on $168K/yr jobs
I prefer to presume innocence and hammer those who violate ethics rather than punish the innocent

And as I said, if Congress is held to the same standard then fine but she doesn't get to pick and choose which position or PARTY is held the that standard. All or none. No piecemeal attack the opposition with a non-existing hypothetical regulation which she herself would never accept.

Amen. Not enough people question why most leave office rich.

The issue is you can't prove that all of those contracts were corrupt dealings. It's like saying all black people in jail are there because of racism. It happens, but it's rarely the case. He's spot on, this mindset Warren has assumes all corporations and all employees at big corporations are corrupt and sinister actors.
Also if this were a rule, nobody qualified in their respective field would leave the private sector for a lesser paying job. That leaves functioning retards running government programs who have no idea what they're doing.
