politics

I've been thinking a lot about a conversation I had here, when  I think @javabu.eth mentioned the majority of the masses that voted in last election don't really understand the policies they're voting for.

Looking back to the last UK election, the majority of the populace voted for labour and had discussion few of my colleagues in the UK, they all seem convinced to the extent I became convinced as well, but few months down the line they lost conviction and I noticed the way they support labour reduced bit by bit, lately I noticed they kind of ignore most news about labour failures and they just move on from this, it's intriguing that after 6months they move and but those that voted against the party will have to bear the consequences till next election.

Bringing this analogy to the America space, the majority clearly voted for Trump even tho I now agree with @javabu.eth that majority of the populace don't even understand some of the policies they voted for.
