[QUOTE="joegrizzy, post: 3807618, member: 45524"] it's voting for candidates who haven't read the legislation, don't write the legislation, are basically told how to vote on said legislation thru dollars or direct influence, voting for bills called the "such and such act for freedom" but are in reality more draconian measures, it's literally misdirection at every step. we are a LONG way from thomas jefferson sitting at his desk with his quill. bills are literally written by lobbyists and handed to reps. no one reads them. no one understands them entirely. they all have pork. they all have phony names. they all have hidden agendas. it's purposefully obscured and esoteric. again, if you are deciding to vote for a candidate based on their voting record or even bills they submitted, you have to understand that they didn't write ANY of that bill, they didn't read that bill, they simply don't do what the surface of government is supposed to be. they are a face; you don't vote for cabinet and brain trust. and oddly enough, R or D, lots of those people NEVER shuffle out; they stay for all admins. you can call it deep state, shadow government, whatever. but the reality is what it is.
