I decided not to read the article because I knew it would really annoy me and I’d nearly want to yell out loud to myself “The solution is the government! Especially the federal government! C’mon mention that!” Out of curiosity - I couldn’t help but look at the final paragraph and it actually made me even angrier. You fucking garbage rag - you buried the lede which should be the very topic of the article. In fact that “regulations should exist” article should have been published long before the election to get people thinking about it before they vote!
Instead of issues that need to be fixed - American politics is forever covered as entertainment-sportsball-reality tv-horserace.
