    This is why I don't vote Politicians like Joseph Bruno indictment

    Joseph Bruno, former State Senate majority leader, was charged and indicted after he stole millions of dollars from businesses. When in office for his 14 years, Bruno would steal money from companies seeking business from the state. Joe Bruno was indicted on eight counts under the anti-corruption law. What the anti-corruption law does is make it a crime for elected officials to deprive citizens of honest services, which Bruno did, bringing in $3 million for himself, over 13 years. Another fact to keep in mind is that Bruno and Governor David Paterson remained as close friends, even after Bruno stepped down. It seems that politicians are constantly in the news for doing bad things... whether it be hiring prostitutes, stealing money or auctioning off senate seats.

    Most politicians makes promises they can't keep! Only because greed gets the best of them their too busy stealing other peoples many. If it's not gaining a vote for their next election, then the least of their worries is taking care of issues that they all don't care about.

    Politicians are not watched overly close, most likely they are just power hungry. They may think they are overly watched, but only by those on their payroll to avoid lobbyist or paparazzi. They are power hungry and it needs to stop. Do away with the concept of the one politician you know who can always count on and he lives his life by his word and put them back to doing what they were elected to do - represent the people! These are the same folks (taxpayers) who pay their salary with their tax dollars only not to be represented! Impeach them for failure to do their jobs! Fine them anything they have received over the years as restitution to the taxpayers! And let's go back to public humiliation by placing them in the stocks form all to see. There is something to be said about the popularity life styles from good and bad politicians!


    Political power leads to greed, just like Joe Bruno. That’s why we need term limits because they become power hungry and think they are above the law.


    Correction from above their too busy stealing other peoples Money
