I think the biggest problem in America is an infrastructure falling apart and people not wanting to invest in the future.
Partisan politics has a little to do with it, but I think that's solely because neither side can come up with true solutions to rebuild so they do what is easy..... blame everything on the other party. No one cares if you have answers if your opponent is the reason why there are so many problems.
Then we have elected officials that have no idea how to manage and spend wisely. Then the party not in power points to all the waste and people start getting all pissy over taxes..... taxes are a necessity for society and to keep this country running.
If we rebuild the infrastructure and factories and put people to work in decent paying jobs, we rebuild a tax base, allow the government to rebuild education and the programs we need for a better future.
But when you have factories leaving, people losing decent paying jobs and taking bare minimum jobs and the ultra rich continue to amass wealth... the tax base becomes skewed and the rich won't pay more, the poor can't pay, thus government continues to grow the debt and can't do anything.
Fix the waste, rebuild factories and get positive ideas and people with true solutions to run and we'll be ok as a nation.

My response is, "I like to put forks in an eletrical socket, just LOVE that feeling, can't ever get enough of it, so will you let me put this copper fork in that electric socket?"
