The worst part being that democracy's doctor, the "free" press, our ability to diagnose and help ourselves root out disease has been largely absorbed into the borg. How many times did you hear "inflation" in the last 4 years vs. "profit gouging"? Data has shown the majority of price increases were just corporate profit chasing and monopoly/oligopoly flexing on a captive audience.
