Despite a massive voter mandate for it, the repeal and replacement of Obamacare is dead. I won't go into the technical nuances of why as they're unimportant. The real issue is the abject failure of politicians to do anything that might put them at jeopardy.
When self-preservation is more important than fixing a major crisis in our nation and economy, then something is wrong. Hence, the usual reaction applies - term limits, throw the bums out next election, etc.
But none of that will happen. There are too many pigs that need to be fed in order for that to happen. Hence, will continue to elect the same old bums, because they're OUR bums, and they feed their pigs well.
That is the state of politics in 2017. And that is why our nation is in the place that it is in.
