I always appreciate your extra comments. I do get really tired of the daily whining from some posters. It is politics, there is never a simple answer to most issues. But I do know which party is actually trying to move the country forward, the democrats. Republicans, just like trump want to get back to some black and white version of life where everything was simple. Trust me life, and every American does not have a simple life. Now combine that with 330 million and you get a basket of everyone's true wants and desire.
First the Republicans want government to not in be anyone's life, less government is better is their motto. Then they are screaming for government to do something. Democrats are always trying t fine tune life, so that everyone gets the kind of government that works for them. Even that can never happen. Government is above all of us, exactly where out fore-fathers wanted it to be, a strong Federal Government overseeing all of the states, and when a state gets out of control, they are there to tell them they have gone too far.
As an example, my car, which is almost 14 years old, and less than 100,000 miles on it, had the anti-theft alarm go off, while I was in the car, and when I stopped the car and tried to get out and use the key on the outside of the door to turn it off, the locks and windows all locked up on me. Now I am stuck in the car, so I start it again, and again, played inside of the car, and eventually figured out it was easier to drive it down to the dealership for assistance. One day later, I told them to an oil change while they had the car, they could not find anything wrong. They reprogrammed the computer, cleared everything, and just asked $ 50.00 for the oil change. Today was a wonderful day, they have been servicing car ever since I bought it. Some days you just need someone to fix even the simple things in life,
