I strongly disagree with this assessment. Just because polarizing language is used to describe something, that doesn't make the something a polarized issue.
E.g. both parties want to create jobs, they just disagree about what is the best way to do so. Both want to ensure that sick people are treated with dignity and care, they just disagree about how it should be financed. Both want to provide perks and stability to their constituencies, which are ultimately the same people. Both parties want to strengthen the American dollar and promote worldwide economic stability... etc.
