I see from a recent letter that someone thinks that all of the Occupy Wall Street people are Democrats. While some of them are, I believe that as long as the average politician has to gather thousands of dollars every week just to keep their job, we will never have much of a national government. Money does corrupt; it always has!

I also would say that if the protesters were blaming all our problems on Democrats the letter writer would praise their every move. Maybe we are getting just a bit too partisan. Personally I am pretty sick of a national government that won’t do anything to solve problems if it makes the other side look good in any way.
