5. The problems with our political system is that both sides think the other is undeserving.
and they spend all their efforts trying to take it away.

Where are the visionaries who want to do things for all mankind? Curing cancer, heart disease, diabetes and alzheimers, transitioning us to renewable energy, advancing technology... If we put all our efforts into bringing everyone forward instead of trying to take down the other guy wouldn't we be better off?

And in terms of fairness, why don't we ditch the loopholes first? Why isn't that the epitome of "fairness"?
