You are correct, though. An army of lobbyists and a few other selfish pirates control, and take for themselves, what would otherwise be opportunity and self-respect for the country.

And until people quit playing their game, the middle class may as well change its name to the "indentured servant" class, and th ecountry continues to swirl around the drain.
