Has there ever been a time in US history when both Democrats and Republicans have worked so well together?

A very objective way to look at it. I can't help but agree with the deductions perceived. Does this have to do with all members of congress being in the very wealthy column & wanting to preserve their position for themselves & the members of their family that follow? Does preserving that wealth also includes a need to preserve their hold on the conditions that gives them that wealth? Throughout history, all those in power over nations also aculated large amounts of wealth at the expense of the people. wealth & power go hand in hand. Is it just a coincidence that all the people in government are wealthy? The proponents of wealth line the stages in their debates proclaiming their desire to make your life better. No matter who is elected, nothing really changes in the lives of the common people, except that things do get worse( cost of living, fighting wars for the wealthy to gain more wealth, health care for fewer people, loss of individual rights)! Is their a real difference in the major contenders for the leader of America? Is your life going to really change no matter who wins? The political population does work well together when they are working for the benefit of themselves. Keep voting these same people back into office, what you saw yesterday you will see tomorrow. What you see is what you get.
