Great post. You are 100% correct. This is the way forward. Will not happen though. Power is rarely given up by the feds on anything, much less tax dollars

7’ (anything bw 6’10” & 7’6” is fine)
Medium power
Moderate fast action

I bought a Daiwa Procyon for like $90 awhile back because a bunch of OBers recommended them. It is an unbelievable rod for any price, and just as good as my more expensive rods.

Therein lies the problem

Our politicians aren’t not “inept”. They are corrupt. There is a huge difference

Seldom do I want the federal government to step in and “fix” anything that the states themselves can do because it usually ends up worse than before. In this case, i do not think it’s possible for the states to fix the problems because the problems were intentionally created by these state’s politicians. The various forms of cheating ensure these same crooks are continuously elected. I’m all for Trump righting the ship on this ASAP. The longer he waits to do something, the more scumbags will be unduly elected

I think controllability of the candidate plays a huge role in who Democrats choose for prominent positions. The more dirt you have on someone, the more favors you can get. So why not stick a total slimeball in there? The Democrat base could care less.

I see this same thing happen when lawyers are pushing certain candidates to win judgeships. The most honest lawyers are rarely supported by their peers when running. Its all about who can do the most for you once elected.

Excellent point

Thats good stuff. Thanks for posting

This. Why not require mandatory public audits each year for every member of the House and Senate?

Money won’t solve this. The only way to fight it is by cutting funding
