		<description>Hi Steve,
Well, you&#039;ve graphically summed up the situation. I hope &quot;they&quot; get the message about possible retribution.</description>

		<description>Is it unjust; Yes. Are the proverbial &quot;they&quot; winning? No, they have already won. All it takes is for free thinking intelligent people to do nothing because &#039;they do not want the job&#039; or are afraid of the consequences. Most people can look at an issue and see the prevailing arguments. They then will look around and see if anyone offers advice of any sort to include in their deliberation. Once all those witnessing have stepped back with narry a word the person making the decision is confounded by the seeming simplicity of the task and questions underlying implications of same... the decision-making process has begun, this is how we all manage our lives and it is an effective and developed system provided by (in my humble opinion) the ultimate authority. (Call it God, Buddha, evolution or what you will we know what we are talking about...) the problem with politics as I see it is that at the moment wherein which the decision maker is most susceptible to influence there are those who do not step back with the crowd, instead the lobbyist or official in someones pocket (depending on where you are) are standing there with a shit eating grin and a little white envelope looking to invoke their own or their masters will. The end product of this is a conditioning of persons who volunteer for these &#039;decision maker&#039; positions. We end up filtering out those who honestly want to help (it is not worth the effort you see..) and instead get those with a shit eating grin wider and teeth brighter than the lobbyist with one hand extended to receive their newest envelope and the other protectively covering their bulging pocket already filled with identical envelops. The solution? I do not have a solution but a suggestion that perhaps with a little working and thinking (with a sociological perspective) might work... round them all up, completely expose all of their wrongdoings, line them up in front of the capital building, invite the media &amp; machine-gun them... After the smoke clears and the blood is cleaned pass new legislation that makes the death penalty mandatory for any politician convicted of any wrongdoing within their capacity as a politician. Perhaps that would flip the filter over? Yeah, its extreme. 
Desperate circumstance call for desperate measures.</description>
