Politicians Should Declare Everything

what's the point of having rules about declaring gifts and donations if they're just going to get ignored or hidden anyway. I mean think about it, if I tried to fiddle the books at my salon I'd be in serious trouble, but it seems like some politicians think they're above all that.

I've had clients come in here and talk about how fed up they are with the whole system, and I don't blame them. It's like they're saying one thing and doing another, and that's just not good enough. So here's what I think should happen: every single gift, donation, or benefit that a politician gets should be declared and made public. No exceptions, no excuses.

And it shouldn't just be the politicians themselves who have to declare this stuff, it should be their families too. I mean if a politician's partner or kid is getting some kind of benefit because of who they're related to, that should be out in the open.
