Founding fathers were right

I wonder if any politician will ever ask any questions relevant to our lives, such as:

Why are we spending billions on finding a habitable planet in outer space instead of maintaining the habitability of our own Garden of Eden, Mother Earth?

Why is the city of Jackson sinking like a rock while our city council debates inane issues in a puerile manner? Why are Jackson’s public schools, crime rate and municipal services the worst in Mississippi? Why are the same nabobs consistently re-elected?
