    Obama crushed my generation’s hopes. We voted for him to end our foreign wars, crack down on Wall Street, and finally give us universal healthcare. Instead, we got the Heritage Foundation’s healthcare policy and…mass surveillance, for some reason. He may have inspired hope in 2008 but he had beaten it out of us by 2014.

      I don’t really get the mass surveillance point. The worldwide NSA espionage started under Bush, didn’t it?
