Understanding Politics in 2026

No one is coming to save us.

Do you feel like things aren’t working as well as the did a few decades ago?

There’s a good reason - they are not.

We could spend months talking about why…but that’s a waste of life.

Here’s the short version:

  • Too much government

    • regulations

    • taxes

    • money printing

    • spending

  • GDP > Everything

    • outsource to China? What could go wrong?

    • import lower wage professionals to boost the bottomline? Like, duh.

    • build more homes? Nope. That drives prices down and Daddy Government needs a robust economy going into [insert election here].

When GDP is all that matters and money is “free” it’s just a matter of time before the best way to get ahead in America is attaching yourself to the printing press (aka the Federal Government).

As government power and spending grow the only acceptable opinions are those requiring more government power and spending.

Lastly, Americans like you and me didn’t do the work required to maintain the systems designed to keep a free people free.

The Failure is Bi-partisan

Both Parties made this mess.

Both Parties profit from it.

They are complicit.

More on this in another episode.

How do we fix America?

One person and one family at a time.

Our job is to change course for our kids, grandkids, etc. by raising the next generation of American leadership.

It’s by far the most impactful thing we can do right now today.

What about politics?

Who’s in office matters.

Sort of.

But we are freedom loving individuals and parents need to know and understand the root causes of issues instead of the results we see and argue about on social media.

That’s all for today.
