This only now made the news outside the Washington, DC area, but around here, the stench of corruption has been rising, despite attempts by even the local media to deep-six it.
Jack Evans is a DC councilman as well as the chairman of the D.C. Metro board. That alone should raise conflict-of-interest eyebrows, but it's slowly becoming known that he fed information to Metro about plans by competing parking companies, one of which he may have an interest in.
You can't truly call yourself "peaceful" unless you are capable of great violence. If you're not capable of great violence, you're not peaceful, you're harmless.

About two years ago, 60 Minutes did a piece about how congressmen are exempt from insider trading laws. That is a large part of how so many of them get rich from "public service". There was a large stink about it at the time. The Congress made a big show of putting forth legislation to close this loophole. Not sure that any of that legislation ever got passed. Wonder why.
