Reminds me of that youtube video where this guy bought every single share of a company to make the point that there are counterfeit shares of companies out there. Sure enough, when he had accumulated the number of shares the company said there were in existence, people were still buying and selling shares on the stock exchange.
Our system is so broken that it takes a slap in the face for people to grasp just how broken it is. Once faith runs out it is done.

Broken has become the new mantra. Politicians on all sides are jumping on the concept. None of them admit that THEY broke it.
The average person pays little attention because it is the same ole rhetoric, same ole problems, same ole same ole. Makes not difference whether it is the budget, economy, jobs, unemployment, illegal immigration, etc. One can go back 5 years or 15 years or 25 years or 40 years and hear the same ole tired warnings and wailings.
How many of those 'crises' did politicans create just so they could claim a legislative or governmental crisis, throw money at the problem [money which seems to always find its way to political cronies], and claim it resolved -- until the next time it becomes a political football.
