10 Steps To Restore Democracy To America

[Nickdfresh]

WUTS not my style?

Taking assholes down a notch based on their arrogance continually displayed in other threads?

It's about the context...

I'm not really bagging on AS/AA holders - just ones that think they're so far above those "stupid autoworkers, who should just be glad to give away their jobs," because he hasn't a fucking clue of what he's talking about...

Yeah, this is the guy who wrongly continued to argue with me about engineers and autoworkers. Even though apparently he knows nothing about either and knew he was wrong. My brother IS an engineer and I've had several friends who were autoworkers that made close to $100K a year. But he went on making his typical blanket generalizations masked as nuggets of homespun wisdom..

There's something uniquely irritating about Blackdouche. Maybe it's the fact that he thinks his often ignorant opinion matters more than others? Or is it that he's so callous and arrogant while offering so little?

I'm necroposting this (despite all the BlackFag bullshit) because the 10 steps laid out in the original post are still very much needed, and still the solution to fix what's wrong with this country.

I'm not trying to be a dick just for the sake of dickdom,

They sound even more idiotic and Marxist than before. Then again, look who posted it. J/K

Step 1: Turn the power back to the individual states. The Federal Government is into everything and it concentrates too much power in one area. By turning the power back to the states the power is diversified and spread out. Also, each region of the country is culturally different and by making the laws local, they better fit the local population.

1) Corporations exist to protect the individual investors from liability. They are a business tool and not an individual so yeah, they should be barred from the political process. I would suggest to make it illegal for corporate money to be used in elections.

3) Benjamin Franklin once said a Democracy is two wolves deciding what's for dinner. The founding fathers intentionally made the United States a Constitutional Republic based on a constitution that outlines basic human rights so EVERYONE would be protected and represented. We are not a democracy.

10) The US is not a theocracy. It's constitution clearly separates church and state. It provides freedom for individuals to make their own choices and if they fuck up and screw themselves, then they fucked up on their own. Also, it allows the freedom to succeed. So we don't need a pope or another cleric to babysit us. It allows the freedom of religion if you choose to belong but makes it clear it's not part of the government but a right allowed.

I've never understood the great significance of people who say this and after reading about it I still don't. It's semantics and nitpicking since all modern democracies have some safeguards like international human rights laws and/or a constitution. Also people can through the electoral process change the constitution as when prohibition was enacted so the democracy is senior to the constitution.

Anyway none of this matters when your politicians are owned(see #1)

What article of the Constitution does that?

I'm not arguing with you on the "The US is not a theocracy" statement, btw.

I look forward to his show each morning, and it's no coincidence many of my threads here are directly from his show topics.
