after all the metaphoric blood
and sweat and real tears, after all the work and rework and obsession, I want my

what do we think "the economy"

not Democrats and Republicans
-- we need to stop being Democrats and Republicans and understand we are
actually human beings with human needs and human abilities, not sides, not
opponents

You are refusing your
fundamental duty as a citizen of a democracy (or democratic republic) and
expecting, ok you do you? Of course this fundamental duty is voluntary, so
yeah, do you. But don't believe you are making some kind of important point.
You are pulling yourself out of the game in a cynical huff. The masses who want
to live democratically know no human system can be perfect. We do what we can
with what we have to work with. We don't abdicate to the forces that
be.
