It's nice to believe in things.

I believe that they are ridiculously off the mark. If there's one thing I've learned about US politicians, it's that they adore billions of dollars. They take great delight in our two-party system, as it insures that even the side that loses is guaranteed substantially more income year after year. It's a sure thing.

I don't think our system will repair itself at this point, but would love to be wrong. In my opinion, Trump and Elon and every one else involved will make many billions of dollars, and never see a prison cell. They are the natural result of over a decade of Citizens United and "corporations are people!".
