Great observation.
It hasn't mattered who was President for the last several decades.
They go in to "solve" problems in govt. (lobbyists, corruption, etc.). And every year the Republican and/or Democrat says "Washington is broken, and I'm going to fix it".
Then they take office and immediately join in on the "business as usual" corruption in Washington and the lobbyists get more powerful, the debt grows exponentially larger (remember when candidate Obama said it was "un-American" to run up the debt?), and we get into more and more wars.
Meanwhile, the rich get richer and the poor get poorer.
You would think that at least one or two problems might get solved. Especially when legislation is passed.
Like "ObamaCare". Remember...it was going to save families an average of $2,500 per year off the cost that we were paying in 2009.
Well, now I am paying DOUBLE what I paid in 2009.
I'm unaware of any families saving money now. The costs of healthcare (that the President promised was going to go way down) have exploded upwards.
Typical politicians bullshit as the American people get ripped off and the giant insurance companies make billions more in profit.
