    They get elected to office to do what exactly? I hear they have the wildest orgies.

    But seriously, politicians serve money to make money. So I don’t see how this dodges the point.

      Politicians serve their constituents - they consistently vote in the way their constituents want, and in the last 6 years the Republican Party has been turned inside out by those constituents.

      It’s impossible to argue otherwise in the face of the very real power people wield, from primarying their representatives to taking over local school boards.
