I agree to some extent. But in many cases it always seems to be a choice between bad and worse. There are very few independent politicians any more. They all have some sort of heavy, business backing, which generally taints there terms in office. I suppose I could blame my lack of interest in politics in general, but in my experience it really doesn't seem to matter. We're stuck with the people that big business (for want of a better term) foists upon us.
