Poll of the Day > Government's doing an average job.

(+) Yeah! (+)

Why are people so pessimistic?

I get an extra $100 to pay for food every month from the Biden administration. It certainly helps and Im very grateful for it.

Because people don't understand we live in a global economy. No one government has any control over inflation.

Printing money out of thin air for stimulus checks and sending billions of dollars over seas when we can't even balance our own budget probably doesn't help.

Its the patriots otacon

It's doing a terrible job but it has been doing a terrible job for a long time regardless of the letter next to the presidents name, mostly a product of both parties being sacks of shit that are in bed with so many corrupt corporations

I think we should pass a law that any politician that takes money from corporations is put to death

Every single politician would be put to death. Not that that's a bad thing...

Because apparently blocking drilling during the middle of a fuel crisis has no impact on fuel prices, just like the government's other countless wrong decisions aren't making shit worse.

lolwut? What corporation benefits from not-drilling? Well, maybe the other gas producers who want to keep prices high. Guess Biden is in their pockets?

Mmmm, vintage Muscles post

Based muscles, though.

How will you know who to vote for if you don't have an ad campaign funded by big corporations? Will you listen to the hundreds of thousands who try to be president? Alternatively, a self made rich person could afford to fund their own campaign and reach your attention.

In my perfect world we would do all voting through a website on specific issues and replace the need for a lot of politicians. So there would be a guy with 100 followers Vs 100,000 followers, that makes your choice easier.

There come complications with that but mainly yeah keeping trust fund kids from buying success is a huge challenge in all governments and it's rarely successful.

I think what helps is keeping the issues very specific. "Legalize weed" is going to sell more than "vote Joe Biden", obviously the same way with gun regulations. You can run a financed campaign against weed, but it makes it harder when you spread them out. Also, who knows if X politician will even do what you want and legalize weed? It's like a 50/50 shot.

Put robots in charge

End money

Those are some very authoritarian thoughts you have there totally not Mead.
