When It Comes Right Down To It.

       What we have in America, or to be more specific, in Washington, well no, actually in all of America. Let's start over. What we have in America is a fundamental disconnect. See, here's the thing, both sides have the same goals. They just go about it in different directions.
       Look, here's an example of what's happening. Some folks think the way to solve our problems is to stimulate our economy with large infusions of cash. On the other hand, others believe we need to support our job creators so they'll do what job creators do.
       But the first group thinks that what the job creators do is pocket any and all support and launder the jobs to other countries. The second group, on the other hand, believes that spending money we don't have will cripple us and our future.
       There's a third group that feels we need to do a little bit of both. The first two groups frown on this group as being very naive. But these differences aren't the problem. The problem goes much deeper than just their differences.
       Each of these groups are represented by folks who were elected by their states, in the case of the Senate and by gerrymandered districts in the case of the House. They represent their states and districts and America, but mostly they represent the moneyed investors that financed their campaigns. In other words, the problem isn't their differences, the problem is, who gets the credit.
