I worry about big issues that matter, like the environment, ridiculously expensive health care, the sorry state of education in this country, the reckless actions of the Federal Reserve that distort our economy and impoverish the 99%, the lawlessness and chaos of the liberals, the increasingly strident belief in Socialism the liberals are embracing, the never-ending wars that the Military Industrial Complex is engaged in that is impoverishing this country, the victim mentality of the Millennials and inability to embrace self-reliance, and corruption I see among our leaders on the left and the right. We have far bigger problems and issues than worrying about felons and their rights or lack of rights to vote.




Nice list but I would include the debt. Growth far surpassing GDP growth this is not sustainable. I don't know when we hit that wall. We were 40% debt to GDP in 1980 is now over 120%. IN 1965 expenditures and revenues were BOTH about 16.5% of GDP. Now as most years in recent decades big defecits (except 1997-01) expenditures near 21% while revenues at 16.5% (these are near figures of peak of Reaganomics 1984-86)..
