So everyone knows what's best for us. Parents know what's best for their kids, of course. There's always a lot of angst when they can't get their point across to the all wise kids who are bound to find out that parents know best after the fact. And kids know what's best for their parents but can find it difficult to say. Actually they worry about how their elders will take this advice a lot more than they need to. Friends know what's best for friends and enjoy letting them know. It's about pointing the finger at you to keep it from pointing back at them. Oh the self satisfaction of being able to say you know better than they about what looks best on them or the best hairdo, etc.
One party knows what's best for the country as equally does the other. The problem is that since they each know what's best they aren't going to settle for less than what they "know". That's just politics and has nothing to do with what's really best for the country.
Sometimes I think maybe we should just settle for good enough and everyone will be happier in their own little reality.
