That's the essence of an article in today's National Post. Essentially what we see on TV during Question Period is a farce, a staged performance meant to garner support. Unfortunately the way it's being done brings more derision than anything. According to the article the best work is done in secret, by committees, that don't see the light of day. The rest is for show. Very sad indeed. It's time for a overhaul. But, guess what? No one wants to sacrifice their lives or mental health in order to do it. No wonder apathy rules the land. Unfortunately apathy is exactly what keeps the system from changing to one of accountability and bringing it closer to the grass-roots where it belongs. Oh, right, the ruling corporations won't let that happen as they control the financing of political wannabes.
Maybe someday......the financing will come from the common folk. Now there's the making of a revolution.
