"Your representative owes you, not his industry only, but his judgment; and he betrays, instead of serving you, if he sacrifices it to your opinion." - Sir Edmund Burke https://press-pubs.uchicago.edu/founders/documents/v1ch13s7.html
@ranthony. As an American, I just assumed "industry" meant oil and gas, and was thus confused. (Our Supreme Court made it legal for companies to buy congresspeole.)
@wirelessben The SCOTUS is not the final arbiter on what is legal or even what is constitutional. That is a myth.
@ranthony They also betray us when they sacrifice it to the highest bidder instead of us.
