This basically correct, IMO. BUT, I get sick when Democrats use this to excuse their contribution. If the Republicans are massively irresponsible, it shouldn't justify the Democrats being any kind of irresponsible, it should mean Democrats have to get massively better or else we will all be in a serious mess.

What do you want the democrats to do? The GOP blocked everything that Obama tried to do. No tax hike on wealthy. No improvement to Obamacare. No Climate change regulations. No tightening the financial rules for banks. No education training. No accountability by private colleges.[/quote]

Right?  "Democrat" and "another Democrat," please cite examples of how Dems have been irresponsible.[/quote]

Second Democrat here.

Obama could have prosecuted fin execs for the crisis. NOTHING WAS DONE! I'm from the small white world and the fact that many involved in the crisis are BFF with senior Dems is massively cringe-worthy, much worse than anything DJT has done so far.

Obama could have pushed harder against the GWOT, but again, there's $$$ in going with the flow.

The Dems could have framed so many other issues differently. The identity politics schtick has both failed to realize much progress for women and minorities and has alienated many voters. FAIL.

The simple truth is that if the GOP is bad, and I think it is, one has to get very serious about beating them. This means questioning your existing assumptions, including this incredibly bizarre one that the Democrats are always and everywhere doing EVERYTHING they can, as that's prima facie garage![/quote]

Unfortunately, when money is involved as you explained things are not solved in the manner they should be.  GOP and Democratic parties are both in shambles in my humble opinion.  But we as people, fall for their agenda no matter how you slice it.  We start becoming like them, pointing fingers at each other rather than working on a resolution.  At some point, a great leader will be needed that can really bring people together who will do the right thing.  I don't care if it is a 3rd party.  But we as Americans are afraid to vote for something unknown.  [/quote]
