shockingly enough , i agree. mike, do you honestly believe that the serious issues that we're facing have just culminated in the past decade? no way in hell. regardless, i would argue that the decisions made by the people that you support are making things worse.

i'll also argue that a large part of the problem is the "us vs. them" mentality amongst our policiticians, that you're perpetuating with that statement, mike. hey, obviously i'm guilty of it too. instead of these guys working for the country, they're working against each other.

in the end, who suffers? like that article suggests, you and i.
