Unfortunately, the states get bullied by the feds with fund reduction if they don't adhere to their agenda. In 1984, the federal government needed the states to accept the National Minimum Drinking Age Act to raise the age for the purchase and public consumption of alcohol to 21. All states were not in agreement with the Act and were slow to comply. The states were told to comply by October 1986 or lose 10 percent of their federal highway funds. All states complied.

The Reconstruction Acts brutalized the South. I'm curious how depriving an entire region of due process while refusing to seat their members of congress and forcing ratification of constitutional amendments at the point of a bayonet qualifies as "fight(ing) tyranny."

Good point Lonny. I may have to reconsider that point. Maybe it is anyone who is of low enough character to do what is required to get elected would be corrupted within a few short years. The point though is that once you enter that arena all roads lead to corruption.

Quote: "Sadly, even if you sent Jesus Christ himself to Congress he would be corrupt and rotten within six years."

I do not believe this. The fact that people of principle (Ron Paul for example) do exist demonstrates that it is weakness of character, not the environment itself, that leads to corruption. "Power corrupts" is a falsehood. Rather, power tends to attract people of weak moral character, who are easily corrupted.

The dilemma, then, is thus: probably the best politicians would be people WHO DO NOT WANT TO BE POLITICIANS. The very desire for power over others should be grounds for disqualification.
