For those who have grown a bit cynical, the idea of ethics in government might appear self-contradictory. In other words, we might be able to have one or the other, but not both — at least not at the same time. This thinking is partly a by-product of the very public ethical lapses committed by those in government positions.
As easy as it would be at this point to launch into a diatribe against the Clintons, who have taken corruption to new levels, they are really just one part of the problem. And it distracts us from the fact that there are government officials who do exhibit a high level of ethical behavior in their spheres of responsibility.
The problem is compounded by the need to review the behavior of government officials when potential ethics violations are discovered. What this implies is that we have the government monitoring the government. The potential problems with that are obvious.
As Mr. Trump prepares to arrive in the Oval Office we see how this system can go awry. More on page two.
Who are you kidding? everyone knows there are no ethics in government, and won’t be, until The president finishes draining the swamp.
Trump needs to get every one Obama put on put of the white house quick as he can they will always work against him
Round um up!!!
Truth hurts.
It seems that you are a lot late to do your job and should be replace proto. If you had any ethics then Obama and Clintons would have had some trouble but NO the people of the USA had to suffer and be ripped off, one of the many crimes you let go, so get real and pettle your bull to someone who believes you
