    Why? Because our government has spent the past ~13 years carefully dismantling all the small systems that go into making a country run smoothly.

    Courts, justice? Broken. Policing? Broken. Prisons / probation? Broken. Rail? Broken. Schools? Privatised and broken. Energy sector? Profiting nicely, but for shareholders / other countries, broken for us. Water? Same. Healthcare? Very nearly broken, GPs at breaking point, strikes in the hospitals. Mental healthcare, broken and almost non-existent until you’re in crisis. Trade? LOL, you guessed it; broken.

      Remember 2010 when everything was perfect?

        Can’t tell if you’re being sarcastic or not! Things certainly weren’t perfect, but they weren’t this broken.
