politics
Politics does not dictate our collective cultural mindset as much as it simply reflects it; We've got to look in the mirror sometimes, and we've got one.

Broken Promises
At a time of great distress all across the country our political leadership has once again failed to deliver on promises that would up lift millions of Americans out of the desperate times they face. The economic and financial relief that was the keynote of their campaigns especially in the Georgia runoff, a promise and commitment to immediately expedite financial aid to millions of Americans who face unprecedented economic and financial hardships is once again proof that our political system is corrupt. Corrupt in every sense of the word. Our politicians are bought and paid for by corporate interests and they are the ones who control the purse strings.

Vice President Kamala Harris and Secretary of Transport Pete Buttigieg are the two front runners in what might be a contested primary in 2024.President Joe Biden is 78 and is the oldest president in American History and would be 82 if he runs again in 2024.He is not likely to do so due to his age where a much younger republican opponent e.g. Senator Josh Hawley or Senator Tom Cotton could make it a big issues of the campaign.

Democracy in America is as Healthy as Ever
On January 20th, 2021, the peaceful transfer of power that the United States is known for once again took place. After free and fair elections with no evidence of fraud or interference, Joe Biden was sworn into office and became the 46th President of the United States of America...much to the chagrin of now former President, Donald Trump.

Libertarian 101
Are you tired of the duopoly and feeling like the government doesn’t care about you? The truth can be spun any way you like but we can all agree that we’ve been feeling alienated by either or both parties for the last 2 decades. The problem we have with government intervention is that you can’t argue with the government if they mess up a project. Sure, you can file complaints and try to get them addressed but you’ll likely fail. The best solution for bad service is competition and the government isn’t something that can be competed with because they can drive down any cost they want and you still have to pay for it.

Why You Should Love/Hate the Filibuster
Photo by kidTruant When Donald Trump was President, Democrats saw the filibuster as their savior. Of course, the ascendency of Joe Biden and a senate majority has the Donkeys clawing for the end of the antiquated procedure. Unlikely to fall either way, the stagnation that has ruled the day for years will continue. But no matter the majority, 2020 won’t be the last congress or constituency to question why the republic must stand still as the public boils well beyond 232 degrees Fahrenheit.

Politics Ain't a Football Game
It’s curious to me how people are convinced to vote against their own best interests for the sake of being affiliated with the right “team”. It has baffled me that many people, who are good solid humans, can side with a party that blatantly diminishes causes they profess to care about.

Good Governance is more important than Good Government.
Governance and government are relative terms. Governance is the performance of the government. In the world, there are more than 150 countries and there are different types of governments in each country. In general, there are three types of government i.e., democracy, monarchy, and dictatorship. All three types of government shown their impact on the world and the consequences that came with it. The recent century had introduced another type of government i.e., communism. There are many differences among countries regarding the type of government. Due to these differences, resistance arises and leads to conflicts among countries.
