Title: So, how much will change for Average Joe following the elections?
Post by: Syt on November 06, 2012, 02:09:02 AM
I mean, how much difference does it make in the everyday life of the average American who occupies the White House? And how much room is there for the president to actually guide his country between realpolitik, party polarities, and whatever else happens in the world?

Lots.

Makes no difference to the upper middle class and elite, though.

Maybe not so much for the Average Joe, but the Average Josie would have lots to think about.

I don't think there's many average Joes on Wall Street, either, but they'll probably collectively spooge their Brooks Bros. slacks.

Bible thumping might come back more strongly or it may not. Depends who wins.

:huh:

Considering the majority of bible thumpers are backing the heathen, I don't see how it'll increase either way.

That doesn't matter. It's whether the HM/NIC listens to them or not.

In the age of polarization, there are no Average Joes.  There are only Above Average Joes and Below Average Joes.
