—“…men are more likely to live in a fantasy DESPITE the fact that a sizeable number of men, like a sizeable number of women, believe in the fanciful notion that politicians are our “public servants “….even when reality shows this is clearly not the case?”— @joanlarma

That’s contrary to all historical evidence. In fact the percentage of women who vote for a candidate on likability is astounding, and combination with voting on looks, is terrifying. In fact we would never have elected a left leaning president without women voters. In large part, women are low information voters who are easily manipulated and bias bias in favor of exporting responsibility onto men. Worse, for every male conspiracy theorist, there are two female oppreseion theorists. The tipping point is securely married with three or more children, more if christian, more if ethnically european.

But in support of half of your observation, there is no correlation with public want and political provision at all. In general the state is self interested, the country is too big and diverse for the centalization of social policy, the financial system’s dominance in economy and politics at the expense of social cohesion, and the war on the middle class to resist it all – because they are the only responsible class – combined with the federal government’s geostrategic role highly skews its behavior in favor of peers and yes against the people. Meanwhile the people would follow europe into suicidal sependency if given the opportunity..
