Because that's all the Republican Party really is interested in is the power to make those decisions for their own self interest.

Would be nice if each politician would have to disclose their stock portfolio, who pays for their health insurance and how often they've actually visited a grocery store or pumped their own gas before they opened their trap. They are so far removed from the people they serve it' laughable.
