Asymptomatic

I think I’ve become a single-issue voter. This election has been very contentious, and there’s been a lot in the news about how it’s a very close race that the election is too close to call, particularly for the presidency, but also for the Senate. A lot of the issues they’re discussing are related to economics and the economy. The dollar that people bring home from their jobs isn’t stretching as far as it used to. People are talking about the border and immigration, and how there are people coming into this country who, some say, are taking away jobs. Certain candidates claim that these people coming in from outside the country, illegal immigrants, are a danger to us in some way.

There are also other issues like women’s rights, the right to choose what to do with one’s own body, or just plain old abortion issues related to Roe versus Wade and its overturning in recent years. But ultimately, the issue that I don’t hear anything about on the news, and the thing that concerns me most, is climate change.
