"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary." ~ H.L. Mencken
Hey America! Want Some Ice for That Burn?
If you think your taxes are too high, the schools are lousy, the cops are incompetent brutes, the cost of living is too high, or whatever else is bugging you, then voting for another politician based on promises to fix it all probably won’t work. Your concerns are forgotten the day after the election. Instead, do a little research, then pack up your shit and head off for someplace better. (Cato Institute podcast, 10 minutes)

I screwed up. The intro for this link should be, "Russia Trolls America with Offers to Send Election Monitors". Hope the irony (and humor) isn't lost on anyone because of my mistake.
