I recently read where it
cost more than $10,000,000 to operate a campaign for a senate run. I keep
hearing politicians state that our government needs an infusion of youth
participation in the political process as well as someday seeking elected
office. But how can they?
How can little Mike, Erica, Vaughn, Eric, or Skree Rock who comes from humble beginnings ever aspire to become a senator, a mayor, city council member, or President when they can barely afford bus fare? How can the youth participate and bring much needed fresh ideas to save our government from being currently water boarded by extremist politicians when the political system has been taken over by lobbyist and billionaires whose sole purpose is to provide these same political extremists with millions of dollars to destroy the middle class and poor?
I get it. Career politicians don't want the likes of little Mike, Erica, Vaughn, Eric or Skree Rock from humble beginnings to hold elected office. Its foolish talk brought to you by the lobbying firm of "Smoke and Mirrors."
As long as this system of government is focused on who has the most money to mount a political campaign instead of who can provide good government, the closest thing to elected office little Skree Rock will get to is a soap box on a street corner.
