You know it's problematic when most people can't tell you their governor's name, but they know the president's every move
Yea. Most ignore their governors
That feels like it unnecessarily bypasses the senate and Congress
Then America post civil war is problematic :/
I know mine cause the commie is always stepping on rights
True or meme?
goals?
On one hand I hope it's true
large if correct
Well there's different layers to it @Agamemnon's Death Mask
The House represents interests of the people in the Federal Government. The Senate was originally designed to represent the interest of the States in Executive authorities but got turned into another set of popular reps with the 17th amendment. The Governors are active directors of the sovereignty of their states, which the President as Chief of the Federal State is to operate in tandem with.....until the 14th was passed and then it was top-down binding the union together
On the other it is still the death penalty for someone's sexual orientation, when it's not hurting someone. But they are furries.
17th amendment was a mistake
If furries identify as animals is it wrong if you use the meat to feed the poor?
14th and 17th were mistakes
@DanConway A modest proposal, some would say
everything after 10...
They could have given slave children and natives citizenship via law
and 13 fine....
Eh the 22nd is fine
@Legiondude This is why I'm against making the House of Lords an elected house in the UK, because having two elected bodies just fucks the system up
Basically
We modeled our congress off the uk system. The senate was supposed to be essentially our house of lords
Also isnt a title like lord given? How do you vote that shit?
Lords was a mistake.
You don't, that's the problem
There's an entire house of the UK government that is predominantly unaccountable
Senate used to be by appointment of the state
But making it elected wouldn't be any better
I know. But how do they propose to vote that?
From the state legislatures no less
much superior method
and confirmed by the governor?
Yes
Well actually reverse
Governor appointed. State legeslature approved
ah ok had it backward
Like a cabinet position
Still superior
it makes sense
The idea of the House of Lords is good - experts in their field appointed to provide their expertise
