American politics are complicated. Hatred is everywhere.
The empire is faltering. Dialogue and listening are on the decline.
Everybody is on the defensive. Resistance defines popular culture.
Let good energy flow. Resist destructive power.
Have some tolerance. Take the heat. Don't burn out.

Resistance controls the flow of energy. It is a bidirectional property, conducting in the direction of lowest impedance. Capacitance is the ability to hold a charge. Capacitors can be charged in either direction and will discharge in the direction of lowest impedance. If there is no path to ground, an ideal capacitor will hold a charge indefinitely, like a perfect battery.
