[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s the age old concept of Bread and Circuses. For major changes the Bread (Money) or Circus (abundance of cheap distractions) will have to come to a halt. [/quote] A third of the adult population don’t even vote. The apathy will also have to come to a stop.[/quote] I realize this is a difficult concept for people living in political bubbles to understand but what has to come to a stop is the continuing support everyday non-wealthy Americans are giving to two failed entities that no longer prioritize the interests of the large majority. Refusing to vote for something that is in direct conflict with one's own interests is not apathy. That's called intelligence. [/quote] It's absolutely apathy, with a dash of shortsightedness, a hint of ignorance, and a breathtaking lack of critical thinking skills. One party consistently votes to cut spending on the social safety net, cut spending on health care, give tax breaks to rich Americans, and balloon the budget deficit. The other party consistently votes to expand the social safety net, support unions, invest in domestic manufacturing, and wants to raise taxes on rich Americans. It is apathy, shortsightedness, ignorance, and a lack of critical thinking skills that drives an apathetic voter to decide both parties are the same and neither represent your interests. Let's take the kid gloves off and call a spade a spade here.[/quote] Take you MAGA crap and shove it. It's safe to say the GOP is even more dysfunctional than the Dem Party considering they nominated Trump three consecutive times! Think. Read. Get the big picture. [/quote] Reread what I wrote. Slowly. Then do it again.[/quote] If you're trying to convince people that it is somehow "okay" to continue supporting our two major political parties considering what they've given us since 2016, you're certifiably insane and no one with an IQ over 85 is listening to your childish rhetoric.[/quote] An accusation of childish rhetoric from the poster who thinks Republicans and Democrats offer working class folks the same thing and wants to tear it all down. Classic! Buddy, you're right that there's one of us here with a room temperature IQ, but it ain't me.[/quote]
