Politically? It doesn't feel good.

I am discouraged by all the political ads and talk as individuals seek votes prior to the elections. I’ve never supported the idea of political careers. I’ve believed politicians needed to serve out their allotted term, such as four or six years, and then return home to make, what my grandfather called, “an honest living.” I am especially discouraged with want-to-be politicians whose goal is to give full support to one person, i.e., the president. I believe elected individuals are to represent the people of their district, state, etc., not one individual, i.e., the President or a political party. Something is terribly wrong when you spend millions of dollars to have a job that might pay two thousand dollars. Who is paying the millions and what do they expect/want/demand for their “investment”? Our political system is not on a good track, and I’m very worried where it might be taking us.
