The reasonable man adapts himself to the world;
the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself.
Therefore, all progress depends on the unreasonable man.

You find it humorous that a conservative Republican Judge is willing to speak the truth or you just know that he is correct and don't have any excuse?

You won't have to wait until 2024. Biden is getting impeached after the mid terms, assuming he doesn't die of natural causes first.
The problem governments are trying to solve is the existence of your freedom.

Most committers know I don't;t think much of Democrats,
I don't like Republicans much either.
But when it comes to Democracy, I remember Socrates,
Probably less than 1% of the population understands the
problem with pure Democracy.

Just cam across this
One for Kuleana and his followers
“If the right to self-determination is put into practice all over the world, then there will be over 600 countries instead of the 193 states that are currently members of the United Nations. Of course, that would be chaos,"

Want to guess who said that?

Democracy equates to mob rule.

If you want your rights dictated to you by popular consensus, then you're a bigger fool than we give you credit for.

If we were a true democracy, every one in Hawaii would be living under laws and restrictions voted on by the states of New York, California, Pennsylvania and Illinois.  Together, they represent a population almost 25M people more than Texas and Florida combined.  Those six are the most heavily populated in the US.

When you ask for Democracy at the Federal level, you are necessarily relinquishing democratic rule at the state level.  Because, to do so would mean ripping up the Constitution and vacating the Representative Democracy (Republic) we have had for more than 200 years.

p.s. Socrates died a very long time before the US and our "great experiment" ever existed.  In fact, he was born some 470 years before Christ.  Add another 2000+ years to that, and I'm not so sure we should be following what he said about political ideologies and applying them 2500 years later.
