But should we specifically cheer one solitary person holding a seat of power for 60 years? Or rejoice over a single family maintaining a vise grip on a political position for a whopping 81 cycles around the Sun? And . . . should that federal office continue to be filled by hereditary succession via the advantages of incumbency? For 100 years? More? <http://thisiscommonsense.com/images/MeetTheDingells.png> Rep. John Dingell (D-Mich.), 87, just announced his retirement after occupying a congressional perch for 59 years, the longest in history. He won a special election back in 1955, when the seat's previous occupant, his father, passed away. This "master legislator," as an always-objective Washington Post news story called him, stated he was leaving because Congress had become "obnoxious." Trust me, we feel your pain, Mr. Dingell. The Natural Resources Defense Council's David Goldston told <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=0010ZdDw1Q0X63Rpt9EgeEiLIPZbtuW9i0uprWl-WBWDLaR UiYWxvtXZvwBQ1AKHXnUTaSWT7zAQdjDMG6tstijoUlbEtdzvJuDzHGtu3QaAmHynmOlZ0vd5XJs KyXOGu2fSk88hrv553Enz5uHsU0J_vYME_80nWj44O1fiSMtKIZicTZvPo6bZsHU3OlXj8PydLlt 7JBX2_eg86P_yDZjFYDmQdpVw5cpkohdAfmxsejgyWQcQCpaHcKS8ipj6dDdQVxZoYPhtSoY0W-f lZCJtndlxGCGGEUm&c=ecw0ZBU7awll0CIQYyAh84aOFWmHYAcZhpX4TC5_SaRvpwm4h4ny6w==& ch=R88_vXXQI03ypP5LoqF-6gq9Ga_xn9PfH91_qf75ZSryjTdkJ8V6Vw==> the New York Times that the "truly distressing thing" about Dingell and several multi-decade career politicians departing Congress "is that they're the ones who know how to negotiate, know how to legislate, know how to get things done." Really? Then, why didn't he help prevent the nation from sinking 5,600 percent deeper into debt, from $318 billion to almost $18 trillion during those last six decades?

Thought <http://thisiscommonsense.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/frederic_bastiat.jp g> The economists do not say that a man may kill, sack, burn, and that society has only to be quiescent -- laissez faire. They say that even in the absence of all law, society would resist such acts; and that consequently such resistance is a general law of humanity. They say that civil and penal laws must regulate, and not counteract, those general laws the existence of which they presuppose. There is a wide difference between a social organization founded on the general laws of human nature, and an artificial organization, invented, imagined -- that takes no account of these laws, or repudiates and despises them -- such an organization, in short, as many modern schools would impose upon us. --Frédéric Bastiat Video Click HERE <http://thisiscommonsense.com/2014/02/15/video-our-pension-problem/> to see Paul's latest! <http://thisiscommonsense.com/images/GCF-vertical-logo.png> Paul Jacob is President of the Liberty Initiative Fund <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=0010ZdDw1Q0X63Rpt9EgeEiLIPZbtuW9i0uprWl-WBWDLaR UiYWxvtXZiT1j9cSU_MAjx-1gWR7rOBnr1g7rmugHqieC2Bem-k8aV9JlxGuORlK6SbdIfNY2W58 8AcEWvNkIryEy4XFrhvgAb_Ivu36w477eTPan-ZfnwindffzD8Q=&c=ecw0ZBU7awll0CIQYyAh8 4aOFWmHYAcZhpX4TC5_SaRvpwm4h4ny6w==&ch=R88_vXXQI03ypP5LoqF-6gq9Ga_xn9PfH91_q f75ZSryjTdkJ8V6Vw==> as well as a board member of Great Communicators Foundation, which sponsors both Common Sense <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=0010ZdDw1Q0X63Rpt9EgeEiLIPZbtuW9i0uprWl-WBWDLaR UiYWxvtXZiT1j9cSU_MAEOvj2elX3tT_JAos2tIIADf-GbGCB9yDnrgcIAXuTd4Q22J5o0akHD1h tF1GyD-8UAm7mdPOCkvFOmZY2naLNDwrjwqto8gjWaVkoJEqbqOmpjV88RNURg==&c=ecw0ZBU7a wll0CIQYyAh84aOFWmHYAcZhpX4TC5_SaRvpwm4h4ny6w==&ch=R88_vXXQI03ypP5LoqF-6gq9G a_xn9PfH91_qf75ZSryjTdkJ8V6Vw==> and Paul's weekly Townhall Column <http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=0010ZdDw1Q0X63Rpt9EgeEiLIPZbtuW9i0uprWl-WBWDLaR UiYWxvtXZiT1j9cSU_MAHikcla9rvOpTZfB8DjTqPqzuvhs8X2k_AHv7S8b1On1d5DubWlafn_bJ bMWclrEhhaIWSWmX8fF2F_TDN_b0GW8HXA75UULEw2sqL0lsmxZLN0qpUSjyI1LSDXYUcn8zJLuW cEzU348=&c=ecw0ZBU7awll0CIQYyAh84aOFWmHYAcZhpX4TC5_SaRvpwm4h4ny6w==&ch=R88_v XXQI03ypP5LoqF-6gq9Ga_xn9PfH91_qf75ZSryjTdkJ8V6Vw==> .
