"My experience is that most of the people who get really upset about the current leadership of our nations tend to be folks who haven’t spent much time either as an activist or as someone working for a candidate. What happens instead is they immerse themselves in on-line news and commentary."

The issue is that government is a lot more complicated and contentious than milking a cow. It fundamentally can’t work if people don’t educate themselves, get involved, and work at it.

Not everyone will find the time or energy to do this, but it is much more important and productive than wasting time arguing about whether we should or shouldn’t vote for Biden. If you don’t have the time yourself, perhaps you can find the time to support or encourage other like-minded people to do so.

I think a diary farmer. Managing the health wellbeing vs cost profit. Dealing with economic and environmental rules.

Would indicate the biggest difference is. The cows do not get to express a choice.

Where as in society the means of production and the customer all have input.
