crystalworks is on a distinguished road
24 years of prosperity depending on where you fall in the class system. Parts of the population have done amazingly well. While most have lost ground against inflation. Serious reform of capitalism (or just getting back to it really) is needed but our lawmakers and politicians don't serve us anymore. I'd vote for anyone who said they were going to enforce antitrust laws to re-establish some sort of competition that is desperately needed in most major industries.

I used to be much more optimistic about our republic. But the older I get, the more I realize how ineffectual a vote is now. Citizens United was the proverbial nail in the coffin of our system of government.
