Hi, Ed, I enjoyed the article about “scumbag politicians.” I found it to be right on. However, I think the ban on dual office-holding needs to be broader. A lot of local councilmen and committeemen are also solicitors in neighboring towns. Their buddies reward them with these jobs, and then they overbill or engage in unnecessary litigation which ultimately costs the taxpayer. So dual office-holding should also apply to these solicitor posts. I think that would help eliminate some corruption and lower taxes for us.

It might eliminate some corruption. Then you’re only about 5,000 more baby steps away from solving the problem.—Ed. Note
