Politics and elections have always been great audience activities, especially when you don’t invest much of your time or money.
Voters continue to choose aspects that accept those who have preferred D or R labels, regardless of their ability, personality, or performance. Big problems, big problems, complicated confusion continues, calling many finger points and names, but there are rare, viable and effective solutions. Shall we take a look at your property insurance premiums recently? If possible, who will be responsible? Where do you expect a solution?

Both parties benefit from voters willing to embrace those they know, but that’s their jackass. We don’t demand much and expect even less. We continue to ride our jackass, deriving the opposition jackass. We are particularly continuing to deal with governance as if it were a sports contest. In the end, it continues to be a contest that we all lose.
Our bills are higher, but the 401 is smaller. We’re struggling to identify winners in this endless game we play.
