Week 13
It almost seems to me like the problems the kings were having with parliament in a way are similar to the problems the President has with congress. They’re in it for their own person gain. Congress are influenced more by party lines and lobbyists than they are by what people want (in my opinion). Parliament was really only in it to protect their own power. They wanted to rule the country, not assist the king in ruling.

I believe there is some truth in this. Humans (all including ourselves) always look out for number 1. This doesn't cease to exist after you become a politician. But I truly believe that today's Congress also tries to do what it is best for the people of the United States. Appearances may look that they are doing it for themselves but in facts they may be also doing it for us.
