[quote quote=1409]A) Welcome back. Coup de grace post. B) We lost our country when the Progressive Left took control of Education. From Kindergarten all the way to College graduation. Trump is (was) a hiccup on the way to Social Democracy or worse.[/quote]
I don’t think it’s going to be Social Democracy, not for very long. I think we’re headed towards some bastardized version of Communism. The Dems will be in charge, though. Of that, I’m certain.
Maybe a better discussion is this, Neo: what would be a better system? Are you arguing for direct democracy?
I’ve thought about it, for certain. I understand the demographics and communications challenges that, 2.4 centuries ago necessitated the electoral college. And I suppose I wouldn’t mind direct democracy, as long as it came with a system of initiatives, whereby non-felonious American citizens could vote on issues of importance.
But then I think about the intelligence of the average American, the desire of trial lawyers to see the stupidest, most easily-swayed potential jurors in the jury box and then I think “let’s just keep it the way it is.”
