Hey, is it just me or does anyone else remember back in the oughts when we had a global financial collapse because some people and institutions we considered "experts" made some really stupid decisions to package JUNK financial products with high grade financial products while overleveraging themselves so that when the JUNK products failed they took our entire financial industry with it? Or was that just me?

There's no way that could be an analogy to the current state of politics could it be? Like that would be if some prominent "expert" politicians, political consultants, and government leaders aligned their credibility and futures in with criminal elements or foreign powers. Good thing they don't have to swear an oath or anything.

Can you imagine that? Politicians and government leaders, who are elected to craft and execute the rule of law, openly advocating for lawlessness and the ignoring of certain laws.

What would happen to this country if our elected leaders just started to subvert the rule of law by ignoring anyone who weren't their gym buddies or donors?
