Problem is US leaders are elected based on populism rather than merit and whether theyre actually competent, let alone qualified. The result is a political system that rewards morally bankrupt, sociopathic behavior that prioritizes self int

The problem is that everyone has an opinion on design and thinks it's only about making things pretty. The designer, often on low end of organizational pecking order, is asked to bend over from all sounds and is just trying to keep fo
