...all members of Congress should be required wear NASCAR uniforms. You know, the kind with the patches? That way we'd know who is sponsoring each of them. I think he was kidding; they'd never be able to do it but it's a great idea and would wake people up in this country.

The quote suggests a humorous yet insightful idea that all members of Congress should wear uniforms similar to NASCAR drivers, complete with sponsor patches. This imagery would allow the public to easily recognize which corporations or organizations are financially supporting their elected representatives. It implies a transparency that is often lacking in political funding and could provoke critical thought among citizens about the influence of money in politics.

The author, Brad Thor, seems to present this concept in a light-hearted manner, indicating that while it’s unlikely to ever be implemented, the underlying message is important. By advocating for such visibility in political sponsorships, Thor highlights a significant issue in modern governance—who really holds power behind the scenes. This idea could certainly foster greater public awareness and engagement regarding political affiliations and funding sources.

People pontificate, "Suicide is selfishness." Career churchmen like Pater go a step further and call in a cowardly assault on the living. Oafs argue this specious line for varying reason: to evade fingers of blame, to impress one's audience with one's mental fiber, to vent anger, or just because one lacks the necessary suffering to sympathize. Cowardice is nothing to do with it - suicide takes considerable courage. Japanese have the right idea. No, what's selfish is to demand another to endure an intolerable existence, just to spare families, friends, and enemies a bit of soul-searching.
