I try to read a balanced set of news sources, but to me you seem to view things from a much different perspective. I guess it depends on what you consider ‘the media’, for one.
Compare that to Trump's tariff proposals, which most media just assumed he'd not be so stupid as to actually implement, and never reported on critique of them. I've talked to so many center-right people that thought "oh I didn't know this would happen. Oh well I guess it's going to be ok because it's Republicans in charge."
The media covers for Trump's weakness and Trump gives them so many things to critique that never even get discussed. Very serious things. Meanwhile the media has to make up things about Democrats in order to criticize them. It's all hugely biased.
Don't give up hope, don't give up caring for your fellow person. A lot of fools made really bad choices, but it doesn't take many people to smarten up to drastically improve the system. You wouldn't see the Texas redistricting that's going on right now if Trump didn't know that he's completely screwed in next year's election. It's a desperate attempt to hold onto power, even if they media won't say that outright, or even dare to criticize Trump.
The US system is so dumb not to mention inefficient.
To structurally reduce the fraction of GDP devoted to healthcare, we need to make far bigger changes. A lot of the setup right now is to subsidize those on Medicare by those on private insurance programs. The cross-subsidization goes very deep, and anything that might reduce costs also has the risk of undoing cross-subsidization. With half the country refusing to reform health care for the past 30 years, and the other half having their hands tied behind their back on trying to improve health care, we have built a gigantic overly complex system that's very hard to unwind.
A surface-to-air missile?
As funny as that would be, maybe you should define your terms before you try to use them.
> TAM or Total Available Market is the total market demand for a product or service. SAM or Serviceable Available Market is the segment of the TAM targeted by your products and services which is within your geographical reach. SOM or Serviceable Obtainable Market is the portion of SAM that you can capture.
I disagree with the premise. The modern UIs are rife with more special cases, hidden gestures and non-transferable knowledge than the old “one mouse button is enough” or even early windows’ ugly but constant model. Gen Z has harder UI, over a superficial simplicity that is really just a constrained interaction space.
The problem for zoomers is now when they use a deep interaction model, the new complexity of UI becomes a frustration multiplier rather than fixed cost.
