It ' s funny how Trump was never labeled a racist his whole life until he ran against the Democratic party . Not a Democrat then you must be a racist ! !!<| sep |> I ' m not a fan that people are downvoting you without replying , personally . Actually , the ' state ' as you say in the US has either massively shrunke . g . the decimation of the social safety net by both parties , of which VA is a part , or has expanded in the wrong waynamely , police state and corruption and that is actually a large part of the issue , yes . Can we agree that there are things private industry is good ate . g . innovation and technology , manufacturing , resource extraction and processing , and there are things they are bad ate . g . health care , education , prisons ?
