You wont see many political opinions forwarded by me because it is a waste of time.  Fermenting discord messes with my aura and certainly gets my stomach and bowels in an uproar.  Old people should not do things that get their bowels in an uproar.  Tranquility is what we should be after.  Dont get me wrong, I dislike many of the things our government does for us as well as too us, but, we really have no recourse but to just stick it out.  Have you ever written you congressman and gotten a response?  Have you ever seen an instance where something was done in accordance with the people’s’ wishes?  Have you ever been promised something only to see that it is never done?  Well, that is politics.  We have one chance every 4 years to rectify an election error.  After the election we kinda have to sit back and see if we are going to get it stuck to us, in us or accidentally get lucky enough to receive some benefit from the one we elected.  Mostly we end up the stuckees.  We have a couple of years left on the present administration.  Hopefully we can last until we have an opportunity to elect someone else.  It is a cinch our current Prez will not serve again.  The best thing each of us can do is to be as informed as we can be about the people who serve us, and if they do not serve us in a manner that we feel is what we want, then withhold your vote from that person and find another candidate.  Use the time that you spend reading mostly untrue or biased statements to try and learn the real facts.  We will probably have a hard time finding out those facts but we can try.  Make a decision that is an informed decision and then, win or lose, go with the results.
