should just be Anarcho-Primitive. Wouldnt need to argue all about this. Just steal each others food and women, then die from TB

We need to decide as a matter of values if any of it *should*

Constitutions get overthrown by regime change all the time.

I wonder if we’ve found a snag in our system: by the principle of natural rights, prostitution would be a natural right of someone’s choice; but the principle of democracy and representation would have the people be able to vote as they desire, even if that would be against the constitution. So where do we stand?

I don't think many people would argue that prostitution is a natural right

There is a term for that Emperor... Majority Rule. Reason we are not suppose to be a Democracy.

By declaring us a Democracy, our politicians effectively betrayed the founding father's visions.

Putting us on the same path as France and UK.

And European Union.

You know why we have United in our name.

Because each representative suppose to represent their own state.

Not the whole nation.

Then you should probably stop letting people vote for stuff. Otherwise, the majority will continue to rule.

Yeah but the founding fathers did see the need to reform the system and be able to amend the constitution through a super majority

Set up an elite oligarchy.

That was because it was suppose to be hard to even get a majority vote.

Because they were diverse ideas and opinions.

This is why things like the electoral college exist.

So, people cooperating is breaking American government. Yep, this country's bound to last a thousand years.

Now we are seeing this fucking destruction of diverse opinions an ideas is leading to a single ideology rulling.

All thanks to the left.

I'd say it's more thanks to the internet

The foundering fathers thought that because we are so diverse, we wouldn't be able to come together to alter the constitution on whim, making it harder for it to be changed unless it must absolutely be changed.

an elite oligarchy would go against the basic principles of the people being ruled by someone who they don't believe in

And then we banned booze.

No... the federal government banned booze.

Unchecked power.

Wasn't that because all the men were at war and weren't able to vote?

The citizens really didn't vote that in.

Which isn't a problem if you don't believe that the legitimacy of a government depends on the will of the governed.

The citizens actually revolted and created a underground trade for booze.

The government even attempted to posion booze to deter people.

How basic is this principle of reverence for the Founding Fathers?

Yeah, prohibition era was pretty lit

Depends on the person.

People died from making wine from concrete

Fun times

Concrete, what the fuck

Honestly I think every American should read "Common Sense" to understand why the country was formed the way it was.

There was a form of concrete or plaster that had used fermented grape juice (shitty wine) as one of the ingredients
