A big part of the problem is the political divisions exist within many states. It's essentially a urban vs. rural divide with the suburbs as the fighting ground. NY is a perfect example. The cities are all left wing progressive sanctuaries (shitholes). Outside of the cities voters are much more conservative.Yes...
And when the Republicans take both houses they'll simply undo any restrictive laws passed now...
Maybe...
It's all broken!
But I read an article that surprised me, something to the effect that 40% of those polled believe the U.S. is headed toward another civil war due to Progressive and Conservative ideologies being so far apart any longer. An interesting take on things!
But simply, those who are able, are migrating to locations that support their own ideologies, political, religious, etc. As is the reason this country became what it was in the first place!
We shall see...
