The politics. Swapping between 2 parties that are essentially the same since forever.

@Shpiders OK. But if you're in the U.S., do you REALLY think the two parties the same? I mean really? If so, I'm not sure you've been paying attention.

@Ynotisay There's not much to separate them in terms of policy. Their differences essentially just go back to the Civil War.

@Shpiders OK. I could write a few thousand words right now that would highlight the monumental differences. But it wouldn't matter. People either learn the truth on their own or they don't.

@Ynotisay I could write a few thousand words about assuming everyone is from the US and any mention of politics is about US politics

@Shpiders Good point. Two parties was an obvious assumption, right? So your country is only represented by two parties in whatever form of government you have? I don't know what country that is so please let me know.

@Ynotisay Ireland. Flip flopped between 2 parties forever. Currently they're both in government together.

@Ynotisay OR like both the Republicans AND The Democrats, they go around and around in an endless cycle of looking out for their own vested interests !

@Shpiders I thought Labour was part of the equation.

@Ynotisay they've been in coalition a few times yeah but essentially just propping up either of the 2 main parties and now the Labour party in Ireland is pretty much obsolete
