The things she says makes great sense and it supposedly was the idea behind the American ideals. I believe greed got in the way of what was,,,, to be what the forefathers imagined. America just got too big and power of greed got totally in the way of those thoughts. Unfortunately, our government leaders are sculpured into wealth by big business and the billionaires gifts. Which is supposed to be not allowed, but look at our government leaders. Where are the average ones? They are all millionaires. How many millionaires are going to cut their own throat financially? As long as there is a 20% to 80% offset in the leadership, we can't win. There's a reason no strong contender for office, runs as an independent. Also. You do need experience. So, many newbies get hooked up with veteran politicians and before you know it, they fall right into the trap of trading gifts for votes. It's a vicious cycle.
