“The fact is that one of our two great political parties has made it clear that it has no interest in making America governable, unless it’s doing the governing. And that party now controls one house of Congress, which means that the country will not, in fact, be governable without that party’s cooperation — cooperation that won’t be forthcoming.”
— There Will Be Blood by Paul Krugman is an excellent read on the state of ineffective politics in America today. Unless people step up and hold their elected officials accountable this stupidity is going to continue to run rampant. (via Gruber)
