What an absolute joke of a political class and disgrace of a justice system we have in this country. The great experiment is failing. For now, at least we’ve kept the radicals away from the Supreme Court, but how much longer will it hold them off? The house is collapsing and frankly I don’t see how we fix it without some serious changes.

Off the top of my head, we need – at minimum: constitutional amendments, disbandment of executive agencies and federal police, hard limits on federal employees within the capital DC/VA region, open source and transparent voting systems, a basic standard of healthcare available to anyone who wants it, nationalization and disbandment of media companies, referendums for military actions and withdrawals…

Ironically, there are probably a bunch of angry leftists in this thread who agree with all that, although they’d be hoping for different outcomes at various steps in the process. But maybe there’s something to that, and we could meet in the middle. We all agree major changes are necessary, and if the country has not yet fallen, then there are processes available to us, the people, to resolve the problems we agree exist. If we could agree for a few years to address the problem head-on, the politicians in power wouldn’t be able to stop the changes, like a convention of states passing an amendment for term limits taking immediate effect..

It’s up to us.
