How do you guys feel about this?
I saw a comment a while ago that I saved because it explained things better that I ever could
“I’ve always taken the position that the Presidency and its administration mostly affect 20% of the American population – the top 10% and the bottom 10% (economically speaking). The rest of the bell curve will not really see any major changes to their lives, regardless of whether the administration is blue or red, and you won’t be able to really notice any major changes due to a shift in presidency.
OBVIOUSLY this is an extremely general take, and you can pinpoint specific policies that can and do have major immediate and long term effects, but I’m speaking very generally on a day-to-day basis, that for most of Americans, life just goes on, and for the most part, will be the same. So to answer your question, life isn’t that different over the past 5 months from the previous 4 years.”
The only changes I really see is when the left is at the helm they scratch away a little more at the second amendment. When the right is at the helm they slow down drug legalization and abortion rights and such.
So for me it seems like I have to choose what physical liberties I value more.
