I’ve never been into adversarial sports, and can’t even begin to comprehend the mindset. I’ve also never felt wed to any political party, and, likewise, cannot understand the mindset of those who defend “their party” no matter how badly they’ve managed things. I really wish we could aboloish the party system, and instead, vote for the individual people who have the highest level of integrity, are the most capable/intelligent negotiators, and who best represent our individual interests, and the best interests of society.[/quote]
You are part of the 20%. Welcome. The other 80% cannot relate to you. They enjoy their teams and being on “the good side.”
Jon Stewart, Steven Colbert, and Bill Maher are there to keep the 20 percenters pacified. These genuinely funny guys will talk about the things that are going wrong but then never offer any realistic suggestions about how to fix them. They just make little smug faces as they deliver their punchlines, and the 20% crowd laughs along while their 401K balances diminish, their health insurance goes up, and their jobs are outsourced to India.
Thank you for playing. All your base are belong to us.
