@dustinb3403 "Decent" people don't run for office. Even in the rare instance when a decent person gets elected to something, they get to Washington and they have to play the game the way it already exists, thereby removing their ability to do the right thing in any scenario.

I would move that; given the technology we have today, we push the issue of dispersing the so called "representatives" back to the localities they so called "Represent". Makes it a lot harder to live a cloistered existence. If you can knock on my door and ask for an explanation, I may just represent you a little better.

I'm much more of a "start over" believer. I don't think our system works, period. It is old and pre-dates most modern republic designs and it shows. Other countries learned so much from our mistakes, but we don't have a system that allows for growth and adaptation. The US system is designed, intentionally or by accident, to make anything outside of status quo essentially impossible.

@rojoloco yea. . . unfortunately this is true. . .

they have to play the game the way it already exists, thereby removing their ability to do the right thing in any scenario.

So what other options are there?

Burn it all to the ground, then a couple or three generations of some Walking Dead type shit, then maybe something better will rise from the ashes of society?

Sadly, I could see this being what eventually winds up happening.

Well, it's possible, but that's never really happened. And it isn't like the US hasn't gone through this before. Remember that hole Revolution thing? We've done this, and it worked out fine.

Most countries go through revolutions from time to time. The US has gone pretty long without one.

But if we're going to have a revolution, there must be dancing . A revolution without dancing is not a revolution worth having.
