The national media has spent so much time talking about foreign affairs, particularly in the last few days, that it’s worth taking a step back and considering, at some length, the life-or-death issues that Americans face every single day within our own borders.
Outlets like CNN and MSNBC (which has now been rebranded to “MS Right Now” or “MSNBC Right Away” or “MS No One’s Watching” or something along those lines) would prefer to talk about, say, Zelensky’s attire for five hours. But that kind of coverage doesn’t address very basic questions, such as: Is it safe to drive on the freeways in this country? If I’m taking my family on a vacation, or even if I’m just on my daily commute, can I have any degree of confidence that I won’t be sharing the roads with incompetent criminals driving 18-wheelers who can’t even read the road signs, and who could obliterate my entire family in an instant? That’s a question that has a very discouraging answer in a lot of places in the world. So what’s the answer in this country?
