They just don't give a damn! It's all about the power. They have been in control with that power for so long. Their thinking has become skewed. You ever hear the saying, "Power Corrupts. Ultimate Power Corrupts Ultimately." We have a constitution, one that led us to greatness. If we follow it and don't try to use those noble ideas for the aggrandizement of a few, we will continue to succeed. If we don't we will end up on the trash heap with the Roman Empire, the Egyptian Dynasties and the Mongol Hoards.
