Washington DC is filled with political car mechanics - some of them very good ones. Whoever the president is, such technicians are a necessary part of their administration. But the problem now is not that we lack good car mechanics. The problem is that we are on the wrong road. 39% of all Americans say they’re actually skipping meals in order to pay their rent. 44% of millennials now say that. 68,000 people die every year because they lack healthcare. 60% of Americans could not absorb a $400 unexpected expenditure. It doesn’t matter that the car is in good shape… if it’s headed towards a cliff.
