I'm heartened in my city by the grass roots organizations that have recently coalesced around some key issues, particularly homelessness. Whether it turns into any practical measures, well, we'll see.
Things tend to get worse slowly over time until a breaking is reached, then, redress happens quickly. That's the reason why decades of illiberal politics (even under Woodrow Wilson) lead to FDR's 100 days. I'm not predicting that again, but pent-up demand operates in politics just like it does in the marketplace.
Intelligence is not knowledge and knowledge is not wisdom, but they all play well together.
