Weeping

“The more I see the more I find reason for those who love this country to weep over its blindness.”

Alexander Hamilton

From Alexander Hamilton the excellent biography by Ron Chernow

This remark was made during 1782 before the end of the Revolutionary war and was referring to the States unwillingness to fund Washington’s army. Usually I am sanguine about politics but now I find reason to weep about the bad direction we are heading under the Trumpians.

The photo is of some of the material we received about last Novembers election. Is there a correlation between the complexity of voting and voter turnout?
