I’m So Old…
I remember when people complained the government didn’t listen to the people.
Now we’re trying to figure out how to make them stop.

One of those random thoughts that zing by at intervals.
This went over my head, or I don’t get it.
For years people complained that no one in government did what people wanted them to do, that tax money was wasted on projects that no one wanted or needed. It was a constant campaign theme by both parties that they were going to do what “the people” wanted.
These days the government is bugging every type of communication available: they are listening to everything we say.
Well they’re listening to us but they still aren’t doing what we’re telling them.
