Re: And the candidates think they can fix this....
This problem has been growing for the last 5 decades!
We the American people have grown lackadaisical and allowed our elected politicians the run of the mill and all but squander the gift that our forefathers sacrificed to give us.
The blame lies solely at the feet of the people!
