17. So true
our system was NOT DESIGNED for PROFESSIONAL politicans. In the culture in the late 1700's the entrie idea of houses of governement were to be part-timers who would come for a few days to months, do their job and go home to work on the farm. They would be paid fair stiepends for their work but not much else.
