What you say Sam is partially true. But as we watch the government shut down over ideological differences - Congress is at a new low for even them. Liberals blame it on republicans and conservatives blame it on democrats. What people are fed up with is not the ideological differences - it is that congress behaves like children in refusing to compromise. Couple that with the increasing influence of money - big money - and people feel helpless to the whims of money interest. ........There have always been ideological differences - my gosh think of the civil war for instance. People get the differences - well most do. But they feel congress is suppose to be the big boys in the room and through compromise be able to get things done and keep the government running. I believe people feel left out of the political process and are showing their frustration.

The economy IS generating plenty of jobs for everyone - we are near full employment. $15 a dollar jobs as a minimum is increasingly getting traction.
