...and yet, the rest of your comment is all your politically motivated beliefs and suggestions for policy based on those beliefs. Why do you believe all government is corrupt or incompetent? It can't be direct observation; there's just too much of it for one person to do that. Why do you focus on schools and homelessness, instead of (for example) military spending or corporate non-taxation? Could it be because of something you read, written by someone with a distinct political agenda?

"I'm not political, but <political opinion>" is one of the oldest tricks in the book, disingenuously trying to put one's own opinions above the "mere" politics others believe in. Stop. Own your political beliefs. Engage as an equal, not a superior authority representing "common sense" or whatever.
