Greedy Politicians

Steve,

Let us agree there is corruption all the way up the political food chain. Corruption does not only happen in the big city and in Washington DC. How many subdivisions have you seen planted on top of old landfills? City councils are too often good place to make land deals with developers.

Getting into petty arguments about who steals the most will get us nowhere. I know you don't believe strengthening whistleblower laws will help this problem.

I strongly disagree! People who tell the truth and protect the common good should be rewarded in America. They should also be paid for doing the right thing.

There is no way we will ever eliminate corruption. We can only hope to contain it. Too many people are just plain greedy by nature. Unfortunately, just like child molesters working with children, greedy politicians screw us all.
