The 1000 Foot View

Of our current politics...feels fairly obvious...there's a feeling the status quo isn't working for most Americans. Why? Not sure...but you can see this in many measures - the so called deaths of despair, the rising anxiety in teens, the lower birthrates, the lowering of life expectancy, job security/under employment, etc.

The Democrats are the party of the status quo. Their MO - don't believe your lying eyes. Things are actually GREAAAT!

The Republicans are the party of change. Their MO - everything sucks and we need to throw new ideas against the wall to get America working again.

And you wonder why one holds the political power.
