Review

Intense fact and survey based analysis of the current political climate in America. This is a uniquely polarized time in US history and it divides across humanities deepest lines: race, wealth, location, education. The author confirms the irrationality of politics making an excellent case for why political identity is attire/identity. Klein suggests some solutions which do feel a little liberal leaning, but overall felt very well balanced. Just several well argued perspective on the political system not the individual politicians. Ideas that should probably be part of the mainstream perspective, would be a much more constructive conversation. Broken is the right word here, the center cannot hold.
