#2 It's a quid pro quo.

They vote for Democrats and give them campaign dollars. The Democrats defend their government checks at all costs to the rest of Americans.

It's really not that complicated.

#5 And as the donations are made public, they become a handy form of extortion.

#6 #4 works for Fed employee because then they don't have to pay two thugs. union and party, for the same representation as they do elsewhere. Thinks of the savings.

Repeal the Civil Service Act. Put accountability back upon your elected representatives. Lousy service? Fire the boss.

#7 If I work for the lottery, I'm not allowed to participate.

I think the same should apply to government workers and donations to political campaigns.

And companies aren't people, so they shouldn't get a say, either.

And individual contributions shouldn't top $100. And only if you're old enough to vote.

And only registered voters should be able to contribute in any way.

What else did I miss?

#8 State, Treasury, Justice and Health and Human Services... not exactly all of the "Federal Government". Or all "Federal Employees".

But don't let me spoil the narrative.
