This happens because the authorities consider us a herd of rams and they don't care about our opinions. All they care about is personal bank accounts. We will never live well as long as the authorities seek to increase corporate profits. Instead, it is necessary to increase the level of social responsibility and the living standards of workers.
Are they wrong though? All we do is sit around and argue about Red and Blue issues, when the only real issue is Rich vs everyone else.
The people with the money want us to argue about bullshit issues like abortion, guns, religion, etc. They know that if we're so focused on arguing about this, they're able to do whatever they want with our money in the meantime. They continue to get richer and richer, and all of us are stuck bickering about issues that have different winners every year so everyone feels like their politicans care about them.
The politicans are put of the machine as well. Politics is a HUGE industry, and they know it. The only thing that the two parties will agree with every single time is that there should only be two parties. They share the power, the money, the fame, and so on. They take turns every so often and everyone gets a nice payday.
