What does this abstraction contribute to the discourse? Does it rile up support for fixing potholes? Does it rile up support for Palestine?

My feeling is it obfuscates the issues and makes progress seem impossible.

    It draws attention to the fact that we are paying money to shoot missiles at innocent Palestinian children.

    Ok, but is this the first time? For as long as I've been alive there has been pot holes and there has been discontent in the middle east. So if anyone was wondering, yes, I know america has a failing infrastructure and is waging war across the world. In fact, I believe this is common knowledge.
