American politicians are responsive almost solely to the interests and desires of their rich constituents and interest groups that primarily represent big business.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Politicians are there to try to deal with stuff, but sometimes it's both fortunate and unfortunate that people like us have more... not involvement, but more power in the stuff that we say.
American democracy is spoiled by people buying everything in sight and then selling and buying everything in sight, including our politicians.
In reality, everybody in Congress is a stand-in for some kind of lobbyist. In many cases it's difficult to tell whether it's the companies that are lobbying the legislators or whether it's the other way around.
Government or politics in America today is big business. Everybody makes money involving themselves in one way or the other, whether it's pollsters, whether they are policy wonks, whether they are pundits, whether they are those who believe that they must call it as they see it and then to be fair about it.
I think most Americans don't really care about politicians bickering in Washington.
Politicians are trying to attract people to issues.
The vast majority of politicians think they are functioning on high principle.
Big-government proponents embrace both the power of the federal government and the idea that millions of Americans ought to be dependent on its largesse. It's time to return to our Founders' love for small government. More is not always better.
All politics are based on the indifference of the majority.
Americans are less selfish than some of our politicians believe and will respond with reason and resilience to passionate clarity.
