Even if they don't the only thing "both parties are the same!" nonsense accomplishes is moving the Us further right.

I'll bet I can find an equally hateful post from the left. Are you up for a signature bet?
Do you post on alt right boards yet?

This sums it up pretty damn well if you ask me. Especially as our current system is concerned. Maybe if a righteous person actually got elected things would change, however, one person cannot fix a broke system like ours. I'm afraid one of the only ways we will see real change is if representative democracy is replace with direct democracy. Till then corruption will continue to run rampant and the people will continue to be under-represented if they are represented at all.

Didn't it exist in Greece for a time? I'm sure it's existed in other places as well. Doesn't it also exist, at least in part, in many states in the US alone?

Direct democracy denies benevolent and smart people power when the masses decide. Besides it will get corrup in short time.
Benevolent dictatorship is the bee's knees.

You think the US should be run through ballot initiatives? Do we need to have an election for every decision that needs to be made? It’s absurd

With the right app, I'm sure it's plausible.

Yeah it doesn't seem that difficult to me. That said I do understand your point. Perhaps a compromise could be enacted where each state has a single representative to handle all the bullshit, while simultaneously each state could first hold ballot measures for their own state to pass things (i.e. legalization of weed) and then they could have their state representative take the ballot on the federal level, and if 26 states support the measure it is passed into federal law. Or something along those lines.

So when we vote to turn your land into a resort for gay bears, you will be fine with the will of the people?
