National politics doesn't really affect us much.

Trump just passed this tax bill. It will have zero effect on me. We aren't making any more money than we were last year. I also don't believe huge corporations will lower their prices because they are making more money, or hand out bonuses to more people. In the mean time, taxes go up and taxes go down and I do my best to pay as little as possible.

Same with healthcare. I am going to pay for healthcare one way or the other.

What makes a huge difference, however, is local politics. If we go to war in the morning with another country has zero impact on my life, but if my garbage isn't picked up Wednesday it's an issue for me.

What effects our lives the most is local government - starting with police and fire protection. That and roads, clean water, etc.
