Answer is quite simple some of these elected officials will sell their family soles in order to get re-elected. I just hope that voters will remember all these tactics when it comes election time. I mean vote one way or the other and then start talking about things to solve the problems in the budget. I mean they are on both sides and quite frankly they are a disgrace to America. Let's face it no one has the ideal plan so get together and settle on the best plan for America. I for one am tired of the clowns dancing around the tent.
