said by SD6 :There is wealthy and then there is WEALTHY. Schwarzenegger is WEALTHY and famous outside of politics. It's nice to have someone who doesn't need the job or owe his job to special interests. I think it gives him more discretion to not rely upon special interests the way that many career politicians have to. It's up to him to serve the people of California well. Politicians serve "special interests" because, often times, it is those "special interests" who have made a state wealthy and populous. Certainly, as the "special interests" become less special, they lose their political power. You're point still doesn't hit home. If the truly wealthy control this country and as follows, its politicians, it is because the truly wealthy employ this country. |
