Meet the new shitty peoplePurpleThrobber said:
Disagree. Shitty people figure out how to manipulate the rules.BearsWiin said:It's not the people, it's the rules. Rules determine behavior and outcomes. You want better representation, change the rules by which the representatives operate. You throw everybody out and get new ones in there, they'll operate under the same constraints and incentives as the old group.
Start with competitive redistricting and campaign finance reform
DC is full of shitty people.
Same as the old shitty people

How do you think citizens United affects corruption in Congress?oregonblitzkrieg said:Americas founders made a critical mistake by not including a mechanism in the Constitution for removing the entire power apparatus (every member Congress and the Senate) simultaneously when it become irreparably corrupted. We need to flush the shit, all of it, and start again with a whole new roster of fresh faces.

I have an idea, instead of constantly looking for angles to lead us why don't we just limit the power and reach of the Federal Government and then we wouldn't need to concern ourselves so much with the rules or how sick DC. If Congress and the Federal bureaucracy didn't have the ability to impact all of our lives so directly you wouldn't have people throwing so much money at politicians in order sway their votes and pass their legislation.BearsWiin said:It's not the people, it's the rules.

Corrupt, greedy, and incompetent people will always be with us, why not limit the government's power so that when this people get into position power they aren't able to do as much damage as they are able to do now? -
Agree. Trump is a buffoon. When do we “burn it down??” There’s no proposal on the table to shut down DC. Why not? EPA, education, energy, ICE, homeland security, FCC... etc. the sooner we shut it down the better. It’s a central pillar of trumpism and I support it. The lack of follow through and inefficiency is just shocking.SFGbob said:
