It's not what they're responsible for. You must be new to the internet so I'll let you in. The above image is a "meme". Memes convey messages via visual and sometimes auditory information. Notice the above meme is split into two frames, top and bottom. Also notice the difference between the frames, the eyes on the top are closed symbolizing a lack of sight or acknowledgement (of an issue), while the bottom eyes are wide open and red symbolizing an alertness and indeed even anger or outrage (of a perceived issue). The text gives the context for the image, e.g. the name of the entity it's refering to and the list of issues or perceived issues to which that entity reacts.

tl;dr the Cali population is quick to believe plastic straws are a critical piece of legislation [which costs money]... while wildfire prevention does not get a budget increase during an increased period of wildfires. Not gonna debate the rest. It seems clear, people are supporting retarded fucking policies when valuable opportunities of real progress are entirely ignored and even discouraged.
