They are connected and intertwined.

It’s a feature, not a bug

American voter problem?

Are you serious???

It doesn’t matter who you vote for, once they get to DC, the physical pressure, extortion, bribery, blackmail is the Problem!

You could send Mother Theresa to DC & she’d sell you out as well.

THE SYSTEM is the Problem!

You get in line and vote as they tell you or something very bad will happen to you, OR, you can become a multi-millionaire being a retired barmaid in no time. Your choice, what’s it gonna be?!

That’s why it takes someone like DJT to fight the system & in the future to follow up after him, we need more self-made folks to step up.

Career Lawyers are a big part of the problem as well.

Zero moral compass, they go thru an educational boot camp to learn how to “spin” aka lie thru your teeth to support your case

You're making a distinction without a difference.

If we spent less, there would be less opportunity for fraud. Our problem is spending.

Waste, fraud, and abuse are all major problems and major contributors to our financial problems.

The US is closing in on $40 trillion of debt, if it were possible to conduct a full audit of the nearly $40 trillion of US debt my guesstimate is 40-50% is outright fraud, waste and theft.

Between the lack of oversight *wink wink* and the overt corrupt and intentionally misguided policies of putting bad money after good, what difference does it make??


It's mismanagement, and done so at a criminal level, not just malfeasance.
