I wonder why there are so many angry people. What exactly are they upset about?
In the aggregate, things are pretty good. I read the economist and we seem to be managing our affairs pretty well compared to be rest of the world.[/quote]
For 80% of our population their economic situation is getting more precarious, not better. Couple that with the chronic noise stream of rhetoric and their BS meter going off every time a politician opens their mouth and the anger a fascination with no filter Trump is pretty clear, IMHO.[/quote]
I think it’s the constant barrage from media of all types reminding us of the jerky things politicians say, the criminal things that people do (be it minorities, police, large corporations, etc.) the things that we don’t have ($, looks, 2% body fat, a full head of hair, runaway libido, fantastic house, rousing social life, etc.) and so on. Every time I look at the news I get mad about something – but for some reason I can’t look away. I long for Walter Cronkite.
