I must admit I have hated successive Tory governments here in the UK, and continue to do so.
But I like the quote from the comic strip Pogo:
'We have met the enemy and he is us'
We have a strong tendency to repeat the mistakes of those before us, to blame others rather than ourselves, which reinforces our own sense of normality and self-justification. It is a lot easier to assign some other group as the enemy and offload on them than to deal with our own problems.
