A culture so steeped in greed they don't even know what greed looks like anymore. No show 'jobs' for big salaries and benefits. Public service as nothing more than an entre to great wealth. Washington as a doormat to privilege. Graft by any other name. Daschle is the rule, not the exception, have no doubt: NYT: In Daschle's Tax Woes, a Peek Into Washington. The taxes are the least of it. The very least.
"Syme: It's a beautiful thing, the destruction of words. You wouldn't have seen the [Newspeak] Dictionary 10th edition, would you Smith? It's that thick.

Syme: The secret is to move from translation, to direct thought, to automatic response. No need for self-discipline. Language coming from here [the larynx], not from here
[the brain]" -1984 (film)
