The US Congress is generic. The whole system is flawed. They don't represent us, they represent themselves.

I wrote to US Rep Josh Riley a few weeks ago about the urgent need for metal detection systems in public schools, and he replied with something like "Thanks for your opinion."

And today I got an automated email from his office asking if I agree with him fighting the federal government to protect rural hospitals.

In case the systemic failure isn't obvious: He can care less about protecting schools, and he's willing to actually shut down the government just to protect "rural hospitals." He can shove rural hospitals up his butt. I want the schools to be protected now, and we can talk about "rural hospitals" some other time.
