So that's why we don't see those basketweave/floral
carving handtooled laptops with conchos suggested by:

Isn't it more efficient to just sell the office
directly to the highest bidder? Let the market
decide and all that...
(who was it that said one needed to be able to make
3 fortunes as a provincial governor: the first to
pay for the bribes getting into office, the second
to pay for the defense against corruption charges
certain to be brought forth upon leaving office,
and the last to make it all worthwhile?)
