Campaign fund-raising truly is an indication of voter support for many reasons. You see, usually the candidate that receives the most money also has the most support from the population.

Then again, a few donors who give millions of dollars to just one candidate leads me to believe that those few donors really expect to receive something for the money donated. Believe it or not, big business and the super rich do just that, in regard to paying politicians for future favors. Well, that's fine with me, as long as those favors don't harm the majority of, "We People of the United States of America."

It is sad but true that , more often than not, those donations do harm the majority. Well, here you have an example of what some people would consider to be political corruption. You see, the bigger those multinational corporations get, the more power they have. So far, tens of millions of people suffered, died or live in an environment filled with grief and poverty. That clearly has to stop.

So too, the longer a politician remains in office, the more likely it is that the politician is also politically corrupt, or serving just one particular group of people.

You would think that the majority would wise up and demand more from the people who hold public offices, but that hasn't happened. Election after election, the people get nothing more than hot air in return for their votes, while the two major Parties do nothing more than fight with each other instead of serving the people.

Our politicians did nothing more than waste hundreds of billions of our hard earned tax dollars for the super rich and their goal to control the resources of the entire World, while more and more people sink into a sea of debt, become homeless and most likely will die on streets of our once great Nation.

Only three things will restore my confidence in the people within our Government. First, they better support green friendly sources of energy and make those sources of energy a reality within a few years. Second, they better stop the loss of our jobs by stopping the construction of factories and the employment of people within other Countries. They better stop the flow of criminals, illegal aliens and deadly, addictive and illegal drugs, and also arrest every member of those violent gangs who cause tens of billions of dollars of damage and harm to the honest people within our society.
