The puppet masters seem to enjoy the Punch and Judy show that the 2 right wing political parties are performing for them. A conservative government, historically favors the status quo and secures that the wealthy are in control. The infrastructure, period maintenance, dealing with the effects of storms, flooding, drought and other disasters that do not directly affect the puppet masters have not priority. For a brief period of time from the end of the great depression until 1974 there was growth in everyone’s income and assets. Both before and after that interval, inequity was present and there was no growth in income and assets for any but the wealthiest. It is hard work to maintain the superposition of progressive and conservative legislation that results in growth. It is much easier to stir the emotions in the form of political ideologies, and keep the puppet masters in control and shut out the middle class without their being aware of it.
