I don't think they can go much lower.

I am beginning to think the country is fundamentally ungovernable. We have talentless politicians with no talent, backbone or even a coherent sense of what they believe. We have a population that doesn't want to make up trade-offs or compromises; they want Scandinavian services with American taxes, and they've been encouraged that this is possible by simply stopping migration, making 'efficiency' savings or having wealth taxes. We can't build anything because politicians won't commit to projects that will outlast their governance, because NIMBYs will move heaven and earth to exploit every mechanism at their disposal to stop any progress on anything and a legal system that enables them.
