@Zastava Is it fun?
@ErnieLanders Exactly why they are the largest portion for people to try and sway for votes
The checks n balances don't really exist because congress won't man up and tell the judiciary to fuck off
@RageAmp (AmyFan) If you are a kid or have kids yes
Congress really needs to step up and take some power back
IMO if there were MORE senators/ reps it would lead to a better represenated governments and in turn a weaker one too.
I'm not sure why they knowingly give it away to the presidency or judiciary
@Bueller You will eventually need to build Capitol Hill bigger lol
as more people in charge = more distribution of power at the top so people like say McCain don't have all the power at a crucial time.
@ErnieLanders Not only that think of all the institutions created since the easy and simple checks and balances sep of powers of the federal gov't to other things now that has expanded. They've grow into monsters
@Zastava makes sense, what is your costume this Halloween?
My thought was this
Republican Senators Pledge Support For Turning Senate On Full Time - "to advance the president’s agenda" - https://www.perdue.senate.gov/news/press-releases/senators-pledge-support-for-turning-senate-on-full-time
Create idk 4-5 senates, west midwest, south east north est and central
@RageAmp (AmyFan) not sure yet, probably something simple
It would also lead to benefitting the cities they are built in too.
become The Wall
I'm not thick or tall enough
@Bueller That leads to more autonomy for regions and a more decentralized United States
fyi
yup
again its just a random thought
Federal gov't is a beast, but so is the state and the local gov't
and I don't mean that in a good way
look at detroit
for starters
Trump needs to grow some balls and fight them so congress gets involved and we can settle this fake judge bs
To me its just crazy how much better representation was 200 years ago.
@ErnieLanders Judges shouldn't outscope the president
Another thing I would bring back is let the loser of the election be Vice President OR serve on the Presidents cabinet.
This would stop so much god damn bickering.
@shrub congress is too cowardly to act like usual
They know that doing nothing = can't be criticized = keep their seat
We ended it previously to stop civil wars/ people from actually killing each other but I think as a country we are more mature now.
@ErnieLanders Congress got neutered by lobbyists for decades and decades and the majority being comfortable politicians there for decades themselves voted in by an apathetic voting base
And holy shit if Clinton was acting VP I think there would be far less BS in the media.
Clinton is a criminal
execute.
