alt Hacker NewsI have to admit, I'm very used to politicians tossing out non-fixes as a distraction when there's some problem, but your comment is the first case I've ever seen of a voter openly acknowledging that it's a non-fix, but being happy about it anyway. And not just that, but actually attacking the people pointing out that it's a non-fix, and casting sinister aspersions on their motives.
This isn't even shooting the messenger or the guy pointing out that the emperor has no clothes, I'm not sure there's an existing idiom for the thing you're doing.
There's no such thing as a "fix". Solutions don't exist in politics, only tradeoffs exist. This is a trade I'm quite happy to make.
If others don't want to make the trade, that's fine, I have no issue with that. But saying nothing will happen can't be true. If you remove demand from a market, that affects prices. There's no way I can take seriously a disagreement with tenets of Econ 101.
