Shit Hit the Fan Today in Harrisburg

I'll talk more about this later...but meanwhile, check this out. Indictments were handed down today around noon...and one's a current legislator! It'll be interesting (and disheartening, and sickening, especially as a PA taxpayer) to see what else comes out as this (hopefully) far-reaching investigation continues. Needless to say, there's a LOT of tension in Harrisburg right now. A total of $1,285,250 spent on these bonuses. It just makes me sick to my stomach to think that people could do this...especially since they were elected to be representatives for the people. I know I may have been really naive about politics until this point, but I really feel like I've been slapped in the face.
