Thanks for posting. I absolutely agree with the author that lobbying should be banned and term limits imposed to do away with the influence of special interests. 30 some odd lobbyists for each member of Congress! No wonder the pols will say and do anything to stay in office. Keep that in mind when the freakshow that is our political process unfolds.

The implications of the baby boomers retiring and the massive entitlements will break our country if it isn't done for already. The only thing we may be able to do is vote against the incumbent in every case, with so few constitutionalists in Congress.
