Are they? Was anyone not aware that government is corrupt? This seems to be a generational thing where each decade or so, a younger batch of the exact same people act as if they've discovered or uncovered something new. In fact, this has been going on since the dawn of civilization with a population moving between cycles of expecting change, waiting for change, experiencing no change.. then demanding change, expecting change....... etc etc etc.
At the end of the day, they want nothing. They have no single cohesive idea that people can get behind, that can be drafted into a bill and passed into law. There is nothing that a future leader can stand behind to say "i am going to make this happen". People hated Bush and wanted the opposite. A guy with near zero political experience stepped forward saying nothing but "hope" and "change" and became the next President of the USA. And here we are. No hope. No change. What will the next guy be selling? The same thing. What will actually change, once elected? Nothing. That is the nature of politics. This is the nature of people.
