    This country is not a democracy, it’s a democratic republic.

    If you had to choose between immoral and incompetent, who you’ll you pick to represent you?

      Kamala is both!

      Can’t be both at the same time. One trait prevails in each. Who would you vote for: the mostly immoral or the hopelessly incompetent?

      You are right Kamala isn’t as incompetent as she pretends to be. Her actions say doesn’t value life or Freedom which is immoral in my opinion. I would vote for mostly incompetent over mostly immoral.

    Democracy fatal flaw: being a politician is a civic duty and not a career option

    Limit presence in any public office for say a year: then anyone gets public office duty throughout active life

    Individual accountability for any elected or appointed office

    Vote by phone: eliminate elective governance. Adjust voting rights to prevent the tyranny of stupid.

    Is a genocide to steal the votes of people who didn’t vote and redistribute those votes among exactly the politicians people didn’t want to vote for.

      A parliamentary office representing the voters who didn’t find representation should be constituted. This office should vote in their name. Imagine 40% of electoral votes censoring the governance, instead of desperate attempts made by minority groups

    Any democracy today can slip into autocracy and further into tyranny. It was proven in the US to Einstein by an Austrian mathematician. Long as politicians confuse civic duty with career won’t matter what else the democracy improves at

    What is the rule of law in truth, when laws are created to protect the wealth of the rich? Perhaps the rule of morals should define the rule of law rather than the force of arms.
