There are a multitude of problems created by this political system which was essentially designed to protect the minority of the opulent from the majority. We need to understand that majority rule is not possible under this system. If our government truly is of, by, and for the people, we must fundamentally restructure our political system to meaningfully and consistently empower the people. In essence we need the opposite of what Madison wanted and what Madison got. We need a government that protects the majority from the minority of the opulent. By giving people the power to enact policy they choose, we also put a meaningful check on the concentration of wealth and power by our nations elites.
We must make these changes peacefully, thoughtfully, and with great respect, and we must organize ourselves to convene in convention to peacefully deliberate over a new constitution for the United States of America.
We will all be slaves soon.
Agreed, and wonderfully put.
