Isn't this exactly the problem?
In a two-party system, the sides will just blame all the problems on the other side.
You lack incentives for cooperation and compromise.
as a resident of a country that borders Russia and has fought 11 wars with them you don't need to worry about which side I'm on.
My criticism is that two-party systems lead to division and that idiots can take power... am I wrong?
Parliamentary systems fall to fascism to. There's no magic wand . Vigilance, education and honesty are the most effective weapons against creepy Nazis.
Of course it is. Weimar is a clear example.
My opinion is that two-party systems are more likely to lead to radicalization and extremes. Multi-party systems have greater inertia and tend to focus on compromise and consensus.
Really want The Economist to flip this image upside down and make it the next cover. Could even put the magazine logo in the bottom right, just turn it right side up. 😵💫
I'm within 8-10 yrs of retirement, my 401k was finally doing great before this 2nd DJT run. Biden was old but he wasn't lighting my 401k on fire and fucking with Social Security. Now I'm wondering what will be there and if I can actually retire by 70
No one in their right mind thought we were a rocketship, not one other country in the world is taking on $2T in debt every year. It had to end, we just thought we could keep kicking the can. Does this shit Trump is pulling fix it, nope. But we let the situation fester to allow him to try... On us!
My fellow white people, I know you want to racist, but sometimes your preferred racist just isn’t good for your bottom line no matter how much you want him to be. This is one of those times. Work until you die or racism. Pick one. 🤷♂️
Our economy was still growing, even after Biden stepped aside from the election. It is astonishing to me how people go after the minutiae of $2.90 eggs & can't see the big picture. I'm on a limited income; I have to watch every penny. I switched to another source of protein.
Hopefully a ruined economy will turn the tide of worshiping an authoritarian government. Trump has destroyed the United States, and it will take decades to return to our former secure democracy. I hate him for this.
I know people are freaking out that Trump is wrecking the economy for authoritarian takeover. It can happen, at the same time, I don’t think Americans are gonna to allow it.
We are not like Hungry or Venezuela. We like our freedom and our money too much.
They also turned "public" and "woke" into words with negative connotations. Elon is trying to throw "empathy" into the same trash heap. We should reclaim the narrative on all these words.
Well a bunch of former Biden folks are writing books about how senile he is. Disgusting! The View is promoting this shit. I'm not surprised that Alyssa is all over it but the other ladies? I'm appalled!
Appropriately, the rocket engines on the cover are from Space X -
Elon Musk is helping to crash & burn the economy- by gutting the federal government he and his DOGE boys are personally responsible for the 3rd biggest monthly job loss in US history.
Nobody here voted for a republican. Stop assuming. I voted for Kamala even though I do not trust her either. No partisan support of WAR should tell you something. They are all interested in money! Not human rights!
Others are using recession as the baseline scenario now. I would go further. I think we're in for a depression unless we can turn this all around fast. Stagflation is a quagmire that is very difficult to get out of.
Those days are long gone and won't ever return unless every single eligible voter mobilizes in every single state in every single election from here until the end of time.

Come to overlook the fact
Or wish the reckoning be delayed
But a debt is a debt
And *Musk be paid
Is that premature failure to launch?
Just asking.

It is now 60%.
And yet he golfs.

Thank you, sir.
