I used to be, too, and still am registered as one (Only to keep myself from being counted as a Democrat or Republican which they love to lump Independents into them), but I’ve noticed the nonsense between 2008 and 2010 which is about the time the media focused on these pieces of human garbage over all the others.

I really don’t see an easy fix, and most of what I’ve seen in history, it usually gets much much worse before it gets better.
