I would think at looking towards any type of cause or solution, we (all of us) would first need to look at the one place we absolutely do not want to look: the mirror. The government is a reflection of us and what have asked political parties to deliver. We asked for shit and, to their credit, they delivered shit. When and if we wake up and say "WTF?!?!", only then will we start to see some sort of reason in government.

And this party politics partisan crap is just a bunch of hogwash. Two sides of the same coin who act the same way. I think you have been consistent in pointing that out in the past.
