Agreed. The people voted for a party that has been going on and on about the government being the problem and that it should shrink and that private companies should have very low tax and not face almost any regulation. It’s not like they hid those views and people voted for them to the point where they control the entire state completely (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oklahoma_Republican_Party https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oklahoma_Republican_Party).
The people who chose to support that party will have to realize that if they’re not happy with the consequences of their support, they have to get over partisan politics and either reform the party themselves or vote for someone else.
So frustrating when “the government” is referred to as some vague entity out of anyone’s control. They chose this and they can choose something else. Other people saw through the extreme right economics and didn’t chose it so that was a possible path too.
- Feniks 9y agoWholeheartedly agree. In a democracy the government is your government.
- scarface74 9y agoIn states and cities yes. But federally, if you want to vote for a party that's fiscally conservative and focuses on the needs of the people, which party do you vote for?
