Talk politics.

Priorities are screwed up, nobody understands investment. Basically the Republicans in my state want to drastically cut spending on everything, despite my state's terrible infrastructure. We're living on things that our grandparents build in the '50s and hoping they keep up for another decade. There's also the "tax pledge" that promises not to institute a sales or income tax. Not that they won't raise taxes - just that they'll avoid broad-based taxes that are more resilient to economic swings. Instead, we have a state-wide property tax, high business taxes (which defeats the claim that our tax structure is better for business), and high hospitality taxes, despite hospitality being a big service in the state, and heavy competition from surrounding states (we basically remove our hospitality advantage by having that tax instead of a general sales tax).

Then the priorities on what we spend on are all messed up, they want to privatize functions that by rights should be public (prisons, roads/traffic enforcement, etc.), and they desperately want more government involvement in areas like reproductive rights and the like. We finally have a working school funding system after decades of legal battles, and they want an amendment to tear it down. It's just a huge mess. I don't even agree wholeheartedly with Democrats, I just can't see myself voting for any other party when the other party is so blatantly irresponsible.
