When you stand up in front of your constituents and tell them you don't feel obligated to do anything to prevent their deaths since it's gonna happen anyway -- that more money in the Wall Street accounts of the richest Americans is more important -- then you need to "self-deport" yourself from any public office. As I've often said, the major distinction between "conservatives" (reactionaries) and liberals is empathy, and people without empathy are unqualified for public service. Of course, they didn't go into politics to help others.
