the democratic and republican parties sow divisiveness which is destroying the USA.

I agree with GW. our "two party" system of government has divided the US and is destroying the USA. I favor the no-party government that author Tony Bracks outlines in his book "solving for democracy: a democracy without politics, removing the problems that limit our government". to get there voters must stop voting for  republican and democratic party candidates, including incumbents.

voting for a republican or a democrat is a vote for their party and a vote for our country's dysfunctional two-party system of government.

even with their billion dollar donors, if voters don't vote for republicans and democrats, then the republican and democratic parties will shrivel up and die.

once the republican and democratic parties are gone, and lobbyists are rendered powerless, then our no-party representatives can fix the USA. much-needed changes to the constitution can be made--like "no taxation without representation", a.k.a. powerful national politicians (e.g. pelosi, mcconnell, etc.) that 99+ percent of americans didn't vote for.

hopefully, some day, when the republican party, the democratic party, antiquated party rules and lobbyists are gone, and the constitution has been amended, then we'll be able to vote for leaders who we can stand behind.

nothing will be better for our country.

the same goes for the news media--stop patronizing biased news media that lobby for the republican and democratic parties instead of reporting the news factually and truthfully. they'll go out of business. nothing will be better for the USA.

He may be right.

the good news is that to fix our dysfunctional government and its two-party system is simple and easy--stop voting for  republican and democratic party candidates, including incumbents.

(there'd still be independents, libertarians, green party, etc.) which would be the biggest party? it would be interesting to know.

A NEW CHAMPION ATOP THE LIST OF "ALL-TIME LAMEST EXCUSES"

mexican tragedy

while it's no consolation to the victims of this collapse, structural failures of this magnitude are rare. sometimes postmortem forensic investigations find that the signs were already there. "...tracks visibly shaking when the trains crossed ... warnings about humid soil being unfit for major construction ... After a powerful 2017 earthquake, government data show there was also damage to the line's support columns ... "Every time I saw the train, I saw the columns and beams shake," said Victor Lara, a daily commuter on the line. "They're not well made."

the forensic investigation into this tragedy will likely take months or years. by the time that the report for the investigation is complete, the public/media will have lost interest. will the politicians' promises of a thorough, honest investigation and justice for the victims be realized? will the public care? only time will tell.
