I’m not directing it solely at conservatives - more, the status quo. People are weird in that they vote against their interests in fear it’ll get worse, but they ignore that you have to break the grip of the incumbents for any change to happen. That could take several election cycles to clean house.

Good on you for always trying to choose the best option, and not the one habit suggests.

I think the worst thing we as voters do is expect big changes to stick immediately. I think ultimately, it’s going to be a lot of smaller, necessary changes before we can expect big moves to really make it.

After 50 years voting, I feel it’s our impatience for change that tends to scupper any sort of real change, and return the grasp back to the status quo.
