I agree with you completely about the Republican party - except for a
few well meaning individuals they are all RINOs. That old saying
about how power corrupts is very appropriate.

I offer this direct quote for your possible understanding of the conditions
in Congress and DC we now have:
******************
Norman Mattoon Thomas - November 20 1884 - December 19, 1968.
A leading American socialist, pacifist and six time presidential candidate
for the socialist party of America. Norman Thomas said this in a 1944
speech:
“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the
name of "liberalism," they will adopt every fragment of the socialist
program, until one day America will be a socialist nation. Without knowing
how it happened"
He went on to say: I no longer need to run as a presidential candidate for
the socialist party.
The Democrat party has adopted our platform.
********************
It is my belief the Republican party is now a full member of that same
adoption. Your personal mileage may vary, as your right.
All that said, my Mercedes continue to function without problem. Thank each
of you for your contribution of knowledge and experience to that endeavor.

I actually believe current politicians today are different than past
generations, at least in degree. I suspect media coverage has much to do
with this. Also, DC seems to seduce well-meaning people who go there.

The 1st problem was believing what the politicians were telling
people. When the politicians were "selling" the 16th Amendment, it was
said it would only apply to the "super rich" which quickly came to
include a progressive tax on all income from all sources ...
