Thanks for that comment, OH. You make a very good point.

Of course I only have an outsider's perspective on life in the US, and have rather slipped into a partisan, good guys/bad guys mindset - that all will be well again with Dems back in power. I haven't been pushed to the point of rejecting the whole set up, perhaps because I've never seen the inequalities up close as you have, but also because our characters are very different - as I'm sure you will have noticed by now.
