From a Democratic pollster after a year of focus groups. Inductive of where our politics are and a path forward in the 2023/24. Elections. There’s no block of paragraphs I can rightfully include or exclude.

1. Story is recommended.

There needs to be a lot more like this.

Politicians like Senator-elect Fetterman connect well.

2. good article

I am curious, though, why anyone who have to "show papers at the grocery store" ?

4. At a guess, just another racist act, possibly provoked by someone brown daring to use SNAP

3. Recommend article. Short, poignant, and very much to the point.

Thanks, Randy.

5. Sounds like Both Sides Bad to me.

Don't understand the nobody-listens-to-me thing. That's life. I think it's the inflated self-confidence of Americans. Studies where people from different countries are given math tests or something and Americans always think they did much better than they actually did.

My personal theory is that Americans used to be crazy about self-help books but now they prefer to be victims and blame somebody else, something else.

6. Nobody-listens-to-me

may be an attempt to describe a profound loneliness which I believe is both common and on the rise in the US (and, possibly, elsewhere).
