black lives matter

2019-11-16 10:25:13 UTC  

Ofcourse

2019-11-16 10:25:23 UTC  

All politicians are

2019-11-16 10:25:28 UTC  

The ones who aren’t don’t get far

2019-11-16 10:25:28 UTC  

the common man is a sheep

2019-11-16 10:25:35 UTC  

is only rallied by someone from the elite

2019-11-16 10:26:05 UTC  

To completely get rid of the corruption

2019-11-16 10:26:12 UTC  

corruption is human nature

2019-11-16 10:26:16 UTC  

Every politician should not take any money

2019-11-16 10:26:30 UTC  

Otherwise the ones who do take money have an advantage

2019-11-16 10:27:04 UTC  

most of the time they aren't really taking money directly

2019-11-16 10:27:16 UTC  

the company will donate to their pet project in their state or something like that

2019-11-16 10:27:24 UTC  

and it helps them get reelected indirectly

2019-11-16 10:27:30 UTC  

It has the same effects

2019-11-16 10:27:42 UTC  

there isn't really any way to legislate against that

2019-11-16 10:27:47 UTC  

other than making single terms

2019-11-16 10:27:47 UTC  

Bc to get the money they have to do something in return

2019-11-16 10:28:13 UTC  

Yea that would work

2019-11-16 10:28:21 UTC  

But then most politicians aren’t just politicians

2019-11-16 10:28:25 UTC  

They have businesses

2019-11-16 10:28:34 UTC  

And can get influenced thru that

2019-11-16 10:28:34 UTC  

well a lot of them are career politicians

2019-11-16 10:28:48 UTC  

But if we make it one term....

2019-11-16 10:29:07 UTC  

Would make it harder to have a career wouldn’t it

2019-11-16 10:29:23 UTC  

even better is to make it harder to get reelected the longer you are in

2019-11-16 10:29:33 UTC  

instead of over 50% of the vote or whatever

2019-11-16 10:29:37 UTC  

make it go up to like 55

2019-11-16 10:29:39 UTC  

60

2019-11-16 10:29:41 UTC  

Yea

2019-11-16 10:30:22 UTC  

Well idk I just think corruption is the worst

2019-11-16 10:30:31 UTC  

But it’s almost unsolvable

2019-11-16 10:30:50 UTC  

Because people will find a way to influence them anyway

2019-11-16 10:31:29 UTC  

What do you think @tony1

2019-11-16 11:16:47 UTC  

First-past-the-post is broken

2019-11-16 11:17:29 UTC  

First-past-the-post + non parliamentary like US system amplifies the negatives of both

2019-11-16 11:28:59 UTC  

nerds

2019-11-16 11:29:31 UTC  

what would be some advice you would give to someone who is turning 16?

2019-11-16 11:30:40 UTC  

On what topic

2019-11-16 11:31:29 UTC  

Work out and get as ripped as possible to set yourself up for adult health, start eating healthy now and keep the habit up, learn about money management young and stick with it, retire early

2019-11-16 11:41:35 UTC  

to not eat soy

2019-11-16 11:43:44 UTC
