I don't accept your leftist explanation that the problem is the right. It's much more nuanced than that.

  If you went to work for a company that you didn't like and you sandbagged all your work you would be fired. Somehow this is considered acceptable when your employer is the taxpayer. A large part of the problem of "why doesn't government produce good outcomes" is exactly this - people who have a vested personal interest in producing bad outcomes, because that's what they run on. How do you fix it? Not easy obviously, but certain propaganda networks are a large chunk of the problem. Murdoch's networks specifically, and Sinclair's network controlling local broadcasting.

    I'm not saying that behavior is ok, but neither is it the exclusive domain of the right. Both parties engage in this kind of nonsense.
