The problem with the situation if the USA were to become a true democracy is would I even want to live here or would it even be safe?
Having a pure democracy in concept sounds nice and ideal, but that’s only assuming the people setting it up are of fair minded thought.
There are probably more lazy/violent annoying people in the world and if the majority had their say, it will not be a world/government you even want to be in or have any part of.
I sorta succumb to the belief that it’s pretty much impossible to appease everyone and not in my lifetime, but in the future, there maybe some other revolution in the US, but I’ll be long dead and decayed by then…
Even if you were to kick out all the politicians like in Iceland, there is no proof that the new government will be any better. My wild guess is this Iceland thing will be a major flop.
And the US is probably far more diverse in ethnic makeup and political view and general household mindset…[/quote]
Funny. You could replace the word “politicians” with “teachers” and then you’d be agreeing with me on the teacher tenure thread, too. 😉
