Yep. As old as humanity itself. The deadly sins. It is Man's nature, and the Framers so rightly recognized it and designed a system of government to rein it in and keep one politician's greed at odds with another politician's greed.

So how many more millions will be shoveled into shallow graves in pursuit of that fiction?
