Why wont they change their broken political system is a better question?

Because (imo) not enough people feel enough pain yet.. its like anyone who hasn't hit bottom yet, the pain of not changing isn't great enough to endure the pain of change.. most just shrug and say "this is the way it is" and accept it, hold their nose & vote for whoever they think will do the least damage to their present lifestyle.. and keep pushing the consequences down the road to their kids/grand kids/great grand kids..

Sounds like you agree with the following:

no, I dont think there will be a revolution but the US will remain a country deeply divided and fighting with itself, tug of war between the Rs & the Ds,.. and quite frankly, that isnt a good situation either, as we have seen from the last few Presidents... it doesnt matter who is in power/control.. the people are fucked either way.. with each mistake made by the govt, it will continue to cost & increase taxes, fees, & other ways the govt can get its grubby paws on your money.. the next financial crisis/bail out is just around the corner.. Look what happened in Cyprus when the govt stole/seized bank accounts (over a certain amount), that very well could happen here too..

And people wonder why I'm okay with Congress being gridlocked. I support Congress being in recess to an even greater extent than they already recess. That's about the only time they're not actively trying to fuck us. And, both parties are at it, with the only difference in being how they're trying to fuck us.

Too much trouble, and an awful lot of people are making very good livings from the fucked up joke of a political system.

You've got it, the profiteers rule the day and yes for,..the foreseeable future.
