"SB - thank you for slamming the American electorate."

Oops, sorry to offend, but it's true, I have little faith in the ability of the American public to see thru bullshit. We are easily manipulated and have a distaste for political substance. The American electorate is unsophisticated, easily swayed by emotion, unable to process data, hungry for simplistic explanations and distasteful of complexity, and generally unable and unwilling to understand issues. (Has anyone noticed how much of the election coverage is devoted to style, and so little to substance? The experts know that is all we can handle.)

And by the way, immigrants are such a TINY percentage of health care costs, especially when one considers all the taxes they pay (ie. sales tax), that I think anyone who believes they are causing serious economic problems belongs in the category of voter I describe in the previous paragraph.
