      People in power usually aren’t smart. They just have money from their parents or grandparents. This isn’t a meritocracy. Idiots rule the world

            Great, now they’re diverting all the tax revenue to churches to pay for exorcisms.

              Don’t read in to the fact that the priest receiving all the tax payer money looks like the senator but with a goatee, and you never see them in the same room.

              Lank hair, sunken faces, soulless eyes… you’re going to have to try real hard to separate them from the living senators.

        Additionally, the dumb relate to the dumb (and are easily manipulated), hence why they get votes.

        I get that. But you would think that a senator would at one point be in the same room as a history book

          Sure, but that’s a long way from reading it
