"...these "bad" choices are only your bad choices."

They wish to preserve democracy in name only.

They are the 'choices' of those who have co-opted one party and are trying to see to it that in the future there will be de facto ONLY only one relevant party. They are proceeding by misleading and outright lying .....and scare tactics. They are misusing arcane rules in the Senate to block any progressive legislation, and then declaring that their opponents have 'failed' to get anything done.

"..your list is presented in the most simplistic and biased style."

Since when does clear and unambiguous become "simplistic and biased"? One party is attempting to find ways to CONTROL exporting of jobs and to find ways to ensure regulation of banks......

And you don't consider those other points "serious"?????

You, Ake, make my point about generalization! You want 'simplistic'? Waving you arms and just declaring 'The system is broken and "working against our interests".' is simplistic! In practice, it is similar to just declaring "God made it this way, and we can't change it."

I don't live in the UK, and can't pretend to follow the ins & outs of culture, politics and sentiment there, but 'some' people who live outside the US sure are attempting to describe, define and explain all OUR issues.
