re: #789 Obdicut
Buck, the system isn’t supposed to work with the GOP passing terrible, unconstitutional laws that attack women’s rights to choose, and a court case, at great expense to the taxpayer, being brought. That is not the system working. That is the failsafe in the system working.
It’s surprising you find the GOP to be morons.
You define things differently than me. But yes I think that putting forth ideas that might prove to be rejected is part of the system.
Free Speech is good for more than the person doing the speaking. It also helps the listener determine who is worthy of being listened to.
In other words, the voter ultimately decides what gets to be debated and possibly becomes law. If the representative steps beyond representing… they will not last long, and they will not be able to actually create laws.
