    We really need to name and shame all the politicians who signed off on these things so they don’t get elected again.

        I’ve joked about finding unopposed spots and running against them. Not because I want to win, but just because I want to force them to actually work for their spot.

        Definitely for local town and even a lot of state positions run positions. If I lived in any location long enough I would be inclined.

      I’ve read that the last time any consumer privacy laws were enacted at the federal level, it was in the 1980s when a video store clerk sold a politician’s embarrassing video rental history to a newspaper.

      I’m wondering if any politician who drives a car past one of these things has gone anywhere that they’d not like the public to know about.
