Yes, these are pretty gruesome statistics (though a few years old - I wonder if the updated statistics are out there somewhere).

This is what happens when bad people are elected to a position of power. When greedy and selfish people get elected to our nation's highest offices, these are the results. I wish there were more stories about some of the really good people in Congress. I believe that would educate people more that stats such as these.

Just my opinion, of course.
