Its taken days to come back here to post something new. There has been an internal battle over writing about one subject, and it’s been fought for days. Why? No one is listening.

There is no shame in being Conservative or Liberal. As noted in past columns, neither ideology makes up 60 percent (or more) of our population. Sixty Percent would represent a real, understandable “majority” of American people. So why are both parties claiming they represent “All America”, and the other party will ruin the country?

F$#% (sic) if I know.

Liberalism has the better argument, since Democrats have won the Presidential Popular Vote in seven of the last eight national elections. (For the sake of space we will not discuss Stop The Steal). But all these election victories only prove there are more Democrats voting than Republicans. It does NOT prove Liberalism is the dominant ideology of our country. Most of the Conservative Angst stems from the Conservatives THINKING they represent the majority of Americans, and yet, they keep getting proved wrong at election time. A normal human response would be to WONDER if something nefarious was going on: they can’t accept they are not the majority.

But why, then, do normal, rational people, normal Liberal and normal Conservatives, hate each other so much, these days?

It is a complicated issue because the origins of political hate did not just appear suddenly. And all the people I get the chance to talk to say: it’s the other guy’s fault. So…

Give it a rest. All of you, ass%$&%#. If you are one of those political, mensa geniuses who knows everything and hates the other side you are an idiot, no matter who you are and who you support. It should be obvious to any thinking human being how easily the right and the left have been manipulated by…who?

Yeah, who? Lets try the NRA and the gun lobby. Sales go up when Democrats win control of the Government. Why? Any of you know anyone who has ever had their guns taken away? No? Well the NRA says buy a gun, now, before they’re banned. Yes, the Liberals may WANT to ban some guns, but they do not have the majority, the juice to vote the bans because we are a Democracy.

Immigration? Who makes the money? For fun, track how many frauds involving The Border Wall were prosecuted (Of note, those frauds were not political frauds, just evidence of human nature and what happens when limitless pools of money are available). And for conservatives who worry about future votes, I personally know many Central American immigrants who have become conservatives. (See GMGA, from past column.)

There isn’t enough space to list them all but most of the problems we have would be solved if invested, entrenched private interests were willing to act in the nation’s best interest and let go of the Golden Goose.

And you all know why: money. But if you don’t know that, it’s because you’re too busy making fun of Harris’ laugh, or Trumps’ flubs. We were warned in President Eisenhower’s Farewell address about the Military Industrial Complex in 1961. Google it, but here is his last sentence: “The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist.”

We fight and argue over names and truth, while others make huge profits. Who’s fault is that?

One last fact: no politician ever leaves office poor.
