Have you ever noticed that no matter who we vote for it's always the Government that gets elected?

I listed to a discussion last night with John Marini, and he pointed out that Congress, increasingly, does not wish to govern and does not wish to make decisions. Instead, they pass off their decision making powers to bureaucrats inside the administrative state.

@GunSmoke9 I don't forget. Socialism will never rule in the United States of America.

@4meAndyou It will one day if we don't fix our schools. Schools are the reason that so many kids believe in socialism.

@GunSmoke9 Twenty years actually living in the sh!thole that socialism would create in our country will be a higher and better education for those kids, and they would, (will?), become the next wave of American freedom fighters.

We kinda broke that mold when we elected Donald Trump.
One of the big reasons other politicians dislike him is because he is NOT government - he's an outsider.
I think they are terrified because he is demonstrating how effective government CAN be IF it actually works on solving problems.

Case in point; Trump did more in 48 hours (with his threat of tariffs on Mexico) to take steps to resolving illegal aliens problems than Congress did in the last 20 years!

@GunSmoke9
I agree that politicians would never vote for it.
Just like they would never actually solve a problem.
But, term limits can be done.
As I recall the fix is a Constitutional Convention.
Potentially dangerous too.

@Budwick I support a Constitutional Convention. Signed a petition sent to my representatives. I think around 13 states signed up. We also need smarter voters.

Never noticed. I just thought they were all schooled politicians.

And who votes for the government?
