Politics vs Policy

[tech3149]

6. Thank You All

I think you all get the gist of my post.
The problem for me is how do we get the majority to get policy into the thinking of those who can affect the politics, Not those who can buy a loud enough voice but real two eyes and two hands voters.
Most of us have probably seen that the majority is in agreement with progressive policies when stripped of any ideological label but will fight tooth and nail against anything not originating from their "tribe".

I spent most of my adult life disconnected from politics because I saw the horrid distortion back in the 60's. The 2000's were a breaking point for me. TPTB were no longer constrained by a sense of modesty that limited their excesses.
MM, I'm not confusing politics with policy, I know the difference. I spent most of my adult life staying away from politics but you can't do one without the other unless we can get past a media that is only too willing to distract or entertain us to death.
