I am so sick of all these people coming forward looking for a new handout. F'ing hypocrites. Everyone's always trying to buy their way out of something; now the politicos are trying to bribe the environment so they can hype their egos, ease their consciences (if they have them) and make $$ on top of it.
So, remind me again why politicians, regardless of their leanings, can't make do with the money/taxes they receive? We all have to work within our budgets; makes me want to puke.
