Does voting doubt grow as political polarity shrinks?

15. It's certainly a matter of perception and relavence.

and that undoubtedly is not perceived the same across society or for that matter across the country.

And although the white male heterosexual may be the stereotypic boogeyman of racial minorities, women and gay people, the outcry for resistance to the rightward drift isn't coming only from WMHs.

Every group has members crying out, because they feel the rightward drift. A drift that follows becoming unmoored. A drift that only worries about relative positioning to an opponent to not be as bad or as evil as the alternative choice.

And the pattern seems to follow the uncoupling of integrated social-economic policy into separate social and economic policy with much greater interest in policy centered on the economic interests of capital.

Campaign promises aside, the working development of policy is increasingly less interested in people. I suspect that's no secret to minorities, gays and women.

We get politicians talking for example about advancing quality of education especially for 'failing schools', which is an important value shared by parents, women, minorities for example, but the education policy that emerges questionably works to serve minorities as well as it works for corporate interests.

I suspect, and I question whether this drift isn't going to discourage voters, and I'd suspect it could well happen in a manner that effects different people at different times and over different issues, perhaps in ways that move some strata of race, orientation, or gender as you suggest.
