I completely agree with you.

But it's sad that issues like these can completely grip groups of constituents to vote with tradition against health care, gun control, fair taxation, climate legislation, etc.

People are literally dying by the busload in all those issues, but half the people vote against sane reform for supposedly needing automatic weapons, 4x4 city pickups, $100 less in "taxes" by paying $1000 more elsewhere, and having to eat a 2 pound steak because it's what we've always done...
