Have the politicians forgotten who they work for?

Time and time again, I have taken the time to contact my government representatives via phone, email or regular mail with concerns or issues. These representatives are from local, state and federal governments. I have found, 99% of the time, my concerns go unanswered or ignored. It’s a slap in the face that, after taking the time to sit down and contact these people, they do not have the respect for their constituents to acknowledge your concern.

Our government has become so arrogant and comfortable in their positions that they feel they have the right to sit back and not respond to the people who have elected them. With the devastation of our country happening more each day and all the concerns we have, we the people have the right to fix this problem and have all of those in government who do not follow the oath that they “all” took when elected, to uphold the Constitution, thrown out of office. They are not serving us; they are serving themselves.
