Nine years into our "recovery" the only group who have not benefitted from the "growth" are working people. Their wages continue to be depressed. Corporations have piles of money and the rich continue to get pull away economically. These conditions have been brewing for over thirty years. A large cohort of profoundly anxious people, who are not necessarily the economy's losers, chose to express their poorly understood and articulated angst by electing an incompetent to the presidency, just to create confusion. They blame the same people who did what their parents or grandparents did, that is immigrate to this country. They become ever more tribal as they look for new people to blame - in addition to - liberals, African Americans, Mexicans, immigrants, agnostics, LGBTs, while not comprehending the real causes for their condition. They flail impotently as they elect people who have literally no interest in making their lives better.
