I believe in solving problems, not sharing them.

Well, they throw politicians into the arena to fight to the (political) death over things that are essentially trivial, and they hope that audience members start tearing each other apart, too.

Meanwhile, politicians and people are never expected to actually DISCUSS their concerns to resolution, but are instead expected to troll each other endlessly. So nothing is ever solved.
Who benefits from this? (see the statement in red, below)

What, you have a problem with discussing things?
How should we settle things then?
Pistols at ten paces?
Fisticuffs?
What the hell is WRONG with you?
