    I’ve seen groups of all sizes break down so regularly that I disagree. This isn’t a problem with our system of government, it’s a problem whenever you have a group of people who are trying to make a decision. They have power trips and logical fallacies and do all kinds of idiotic things.

    Even if I agreed with you, it was We the People who allowed that to happen. We had to have fucked it up for the rich to even be able to do it.

    Half of Americans read below a 6th grade level. We are too stupid to govern ourselves.

      Keep on a lickin’ maybe one day that boot will shine.

      I’m not sure if you’re trolling, or you actually believe that bullshit of an answer, that you just typed up.

        What boot am I licking? Nobody should be in charge, because whoever they are would be a human, and humans are too stupid to take care of themselves.

          They aren’t bootlicking, they’re telling you the fucking truth and you are too thick skulled and poorly educated to understand it… proving their point.

          US citizens elected Trump. They believed the blatant lies despite being told the truth.

          That’s all there is to it.

          We are genuinely so fucking stupid as a society that we (not me- citizens in general) voted to give up all our rights and enable a Hitler wanna be.

          And we are too stupid to understand that all it would take is a couple hundred thousand of us marching into DC and guillotining every member of government that allowed this, then allowing the military to conduct new elections with stricter rules. This process is literally in our constitution. Second amendment.

          Prevent public officials from lying by law, stop lobbying, stop allowing money to matter in politics (no candidate may spend money on advertising of any kind.)

          Each candidate gets one hour on free, live television/streaming to present their campaign. If they lie at any point, they are immediately disqualified. Then there is one debate. Lies are immediately disqualifying from public office here, too.

          That’s it. Simple as can be.

          But US citizens are too stupid.
