4. Well, when the congress is made up mostly of rich businessmen,
lawyers, and corporate drones, OF COURSE they are out of touch. First, they cannot possibly understand the plight of the average working person in this country. Second, they are bought and sold by the corporate powers that control this country. Most of them don't give a shit about any of us.

The only way to resolve this issue is 100% public funding of elections.
