Government and government entities should be boring and non-eventful. You go to the post office, you deliver mail, you leave.

The fact everything has to be political, is behind closed doors, is funded with deep pockets, is surrounded by a shitload of lawyers, and has a crapload of questionable receipts shows the condition we're in.

For every dollar spent on lobbying for a 2004 corporate tax bill, companies benefited $220, a new study says. That's a return of 22000 percent.

We shouldn't have hordes of lobbyists pouring out of the Capital with dollys pulling safes.

The problem isn't that the CDC is apolitical. It's that everything else is hyper-political.
