The call to demand that whomever we elect be pressured to “get something done” is a call that is easily answered. Want to “get something done?” Vote Republican.
Republicans are far more likely than Democrats to devolve power and money (the Feds stole) back to the states they robbed.
At the state and local level, Washington gridlock is a thing of the past. At the state and local level, Washington gridlock is desirable. The less DC does or is allowed to do the easier it is for you, the voter and taxpayer, to effect actual change in how government does it business, be it less or more.
States are far more dynamic and responsive. Local politicians have a much harder time hiding from you or running away from their votes at the state and local level.
So if you want to “get something done,” don’t vote democrat. That includes locally. Republicans are more likley to tell DC to go screw, whereas Democrats take every opportunity to tie your state (families and fortunes) to the Federal train-wreck.
It’s that simple. Want more control? Want to get something done? Do it locally. Take the power back from the Feds… but to do that, you can’t vote for Democrats.
