Living in America: a Guide for the Perplexed Chapter 24
Now if you plan to live here a while, it's great fun to get involved in politics. This involves voting for one of two people, both of whom have taken really vast sums of money from people with a whole lot more money than you have (I imagine Billy Gates reading this and chuckling to himself. Doesn't apply to me, of course, he thinks). Opinion on whether this critically undermines their ability to lead fairly is equally divided between politicians and ordinary people who don't have shit for brains. Here in Minnesota we all got so sick of it that a bunch of yahoos installed an professional entertainment personality in the governor's chair. Which is fine by me. One preformer or another, you might as well at least have a professional doing the job. Anyway, a lot of people wonder out loud why the political system in this country is so fucked up. It's the money, stupid.
klik if you demand tedious explanations of every little thing.
