re: #46 Wendell Zurkowitz ((slave to the waffle light))

People are fed up with politicians and politics as usual.

About this I am not so sure.

As I get older one thing I’ve come to accept is that the mark wants to be worked.

American politics is 200 years of ugly. There were times when arguments were even more heated than today.

What has changed compared to previous generations in our ability to communicate to each other, to bring the pains or pleasures of our lives to our friends/acquaintances in almost real-time.

I wonder if this sense of immediacy has heightened our sensitivity to the changes in life… or has it dulled us?
