Another Case of "Capitolism"

LINK>  Sen. Roy Ashburn arrested on suspicion of drunk driving

What did I just say? We need to do away with State Capitols (don't forget the biggest big house, DC).  What do FULL-TIME POLITICIANS (this wrong-headed idea is worthy of examination) do while they're away from home and family?  YES, they run around all night in STATE VEHICLES (thanks taxpayers) with FAT-CHECKBOOKED LOBBYISTS.  Roy Ashburn doing his best to 'represent' Bakersfield in good ol' Sacramento, "Home of the Gold Rush" (not to be confused with mineral extraction).

Let me repeat, Capitols are historical artifacts we can't afford anymore.

The article in the LA Times is linked above.  The comments aren't bad... pol strong on crime sets bad example, we need part-time legislature in CA, etc.  Worth a quick read.
