[QUOTE="wkmac, post: 2674451, member: 2189"] I've heard people (not just in the US either) refer to politicians and government as a bunch of thieves/crooks for decades, I've been around 6 decades and come to think of it, I can't remember not hearing that claim. Some serious and some in a kind of comedic passing. George Carlin all but made it comedic commentary albeit he expanded it to a more nefarious ends. That said, people may not have used the word (of greek origin) to refer to what many are calling it by name now in kleptocracy, but seems to me the thought was always there. [/QUOTE]
