The same can be said about you, except you can't vote, which is a relief.
Make up your own characterizations
Oh, but they fit you so well. :-)

Agreed. Let's all try to fully understand the message someone is conveying in their post before we immediately jump to a conclusion.
Anyway, I'm going to go out on a limb here and recommend the following book for anyone who might be interested: Beyond Outrage: What Has Gone Wrong with Our Economy and Our Democracy, and How to Fix It by Robert Reich. It's pretty informative and straightforward. Or if you prefer interviews, this one here conducted by Tavis Smiley with the author is just as effective.
