One of the biggest problems American voters have with politicians is that they seem to agree to one set of rules to which ordinary Americans must adhere and a completely different set for themselves. Americans have seen this time and time (and time) again, and it is one of the reasons that candidates such as Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders garner such enthusiastic support. It is also the reason that Hillary Clinton finds herself in hot water with the FBI right now.
Hillary Clinton and former President Bill Clinton are exhibits A-Z on political hypocrisy. Even though Hillary Clinton mandated that everyone in her State Department use a @state.gov email address for official business, she did not. While the Clintons are the prime example of hypocrisy, they are far from the only one. Members of Congress who supported the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare) quietly granted themselves and their staff waivers from the government-run exchanges.

It is time for a ballot initiative to change the California constitution that simply states ” THE LEGISLATURE, GOVENOR, OR POLITICAL APPOINTEES CANNOT CREATE AND OR ENFORCE ANY LEGISLATIVE ACT OR DIRECTIVES THEY ARE EXEMPT FROM. ANY LEGISLATION OR DIRECTIVES INSTITUTED WITHIN THE LAST 25YEARS WHICH ALLOWS ELECTED OFFICIALS OR POLITICAL APPOINTEES TO EXEMPTED IS NULL AND VOID”.
Make them live under the same rule they force on us
The Peoples Republic.
Oh, are they borrowing this model from the Federal Government, or are they modeling it so the Feds can follow?
