Your head is burried in the sand here. Politicians do not run the country for US, they run it for their best interest.

I wish I had room (and the exact facts) to explain the slots issue here in PA. After LENGHTY debate by both sides (months, over a year maybe) about all the pros and cons legislation was finally put in place to at least appease both sides an the bill went to vote. It was delayed and almost dead at the midnight hour (honestly, it was close to midnight), why? Because the bill included a clause that said no politician could own ANY PART of a gambling house.

Until that was removed the bill was not going to pass. After almost a year of deciding what was in the best interest of the public it still came down to how much money the politicians could make before the "Best interest of the public" could be done.


If you still believe the constitution governs this country, or politicians do things in our best interest, well, god help you.
