Do Nothing Congress Is Your Fault

"Let’s just say it: The Republicans are the problem." Conservative Ornstein & Liberal Mann


***

Do-nothing Congress is your fault. "The most important problem facing our national government is political polarization, because it makes governing virtually impossible — unless one party can dominate the House, Senate and White House....One view, favored by political scientist Alan Abramowitz of Emory University, is that Americans are growing more polarized and their increasingly extreme differences are reflected in Congress. Another view, associated with Morris Fiorina of Stanford University, is that polarization in Congress stems more from a disconnect between politicians and the general public....I have long put my chips down on the Abramowitz side. And two new analyses suggest I've made a good bet." Peter R. Orszag in Bloomberg View.
