This isn't going to be a situation in which there are two halves of a population voting for different people. That makes your point even more absurd then. How? Because now you're suggesting people take on both the government (mind you a government from a nightmare scenario that would never happen in the U.S. because there's no one person in the government that's allowed to do whatever the hell they want) and the more than half of the population that voted them in. I suggest you look up how dictators come into power in democratic governments. Immense turmoil causes people to turn to extremist leaders, and then those they elect stabilize the country at great cost to freedom, which they eventually can no longer tolerate. Which isn't a realistic problem for the U.S. because even elected leaders have other officials they have to go through first to get anything done. The only way anything close to what you're suggesting can happen is if the entire country consistently elects officials who all agree with each other to serve in office at the exact same time. And lol if you think that's happening anytime soon, if at all. --- I have nothing else to say <cite>RchHomieQuanChi posted [p:913832501] in We need th...
