Too Much Time on His Hands
Christy Mihos wants to be Governor, no wait a minute, Senator. After all, he's made millions giving folks the opportunity to buy Fritos and Red Bull at 2:00 AM, why shouldn't he be a policy maker? He's rich, so he must know sumpin'.
So what's the ideal background for a Senator or other policymaker/politician?
I'd agree that more diversity in the Senate would be good (there are too many Rich White Senators), but you seem to be saying that a background in business is inappropriate for a Senator.
