Being more "informed" feels great at first, but I am not sure it is good. I have been hanging here and a few other places for about 5 years now, and to be honest, I can't think of a single positive thing that has come from it.
The outcome the past few years, I have been more informed sure, but so what? Has it helped any? I have written, emailed, called my "reps", but what good has it done? Every single time they go against my wishes...... I am just an idiot voter, what do I know, right?

What do you propose I do? I am a master at hardwood floors, a master at tiling, I know how to do basic framing, intermediate sheetrocking, intermediate roofing. For a long time all I needed was hardwood flooring, my company was who you would call if you needed complicated stuff done, like intricate borders, curving borders around spiral staircases etc. I am fortunate to own my own house at 30, 50% of a business with 200k liquid assets, a lot more than I can say for other people in construction in the tristate area. Yeah, maybe I am broke sometimes, but all I have to pay per year up here is a whopping 400 a year property taxes, paid more per month back in NY.
