people don't understand how waste effects them?

Perzactly!

American institutions have utterly failed in communicating the constitution of a successful society. We live high on the hog compared to any past generation and innovations and increases in productive capacity are simply taken as a given. Many or most are susceptible to aspirational rhetoric from bamboozling hustlers, unaware their interferences will mitigate against their promises.

A high percentage of voters were adults when the Soviets collapsed. Very few have familiarity with the reasons that didn't work so well and can't recognize similarities in what's being done to us. If (!) they know some nations are successful and others not they'll seldom know why.

Obamamania may suffer a sufficiently disastrous collapse to earn widespread rejection. Any reprieve will be temporary until a decade or generation after the old time religion, real liberalism, recaptures our schools and universities.
