RE: BRUTALLY HONEST: They Shout Democracy While They Don't Endorse it...
don't hold back...tell us what you really think.
my problem with democracy is that the vote is diluted.
if there are one million voters...what is one vote worth.
if 50.001 Percent voter one way and 49.99 vote the other
(like The Alabama vote for Senator recently)
is that a FAIR election?
how bout we require a unanimous vote...80%? or at least a supermajority..
2/3rds should be good enough I think.
2/3 yup.
If one candidate doesn't get more than 2/3rds of the vote..
have another election...and another...until one does.
I've witnessed a 2/3rds situation where it was ignored and the result teleprompted without the results being done. Why do they get away with it? No one holds them accountable or the fines are some minor as to be a pretty good price for the return on investment they get.
Accountability is sorely lacking. Ultimately that may be at the root of many of the global problems.
Accountability is sorely lacking. Also, they have no fear of the public at large.
Yeah, I am not actually a fan of Democracies as they exist. I am also definitely not a fan of a true democracy when the masses of people are so poorly educated. That is a pretty terrifying concept.
Yet I find it interesting that these days they have a VOTE and there is a trend of seeming to not do what was VOTED for, or to try to negate it. So why vote at all if some assholes ignore the vote?
If they are going to have a system and then only follow it when it is convenient to their agenda then I say they can hang.
That is how a democratic republic is supposed to work. Take making an amendment to the United States Constitution, that takes a 3/4 vote for an amendment to pass out of Congress and it still takes ratification by the states.The UK is facing the same problems the US is both governments have been hijacked only the US put in power the nuclear football to take it all down and that's what the election of Donald Trump was.
I like Trump...more and more with each passing day.
