It’s a feature really. It can be frustrating but the idea is that big changes can be made but not on a whim. There generally has to be compromise.
I wouldn’t want to live under a system that can make drastic changes on a whim. The USA is a very multicultural place with many different people with different priorities. We need to find common ground before certain types of things change. This is good even if frustrating at times.
- meddlepal 6y agoIt was a feature until Congress gave in and allowed the scope and usage of executive orders to grow thus allowing the president to bypass congress in a lot of cases. Now congress basically acts as a defensive block to allow a president to enact laws err executive orders at will. Oops.
- nemo44x 6y agoYeah I think it’s time to begin limiting federal power. I feel like a coalition of Democrats and Republicans could come together on this. Everyone being so occupied with national law is driving us crazy. Time to give more power to states and use a weakened federal government for some general oversight, monetary policy, and foreign affairs. Decriminalized marijuana has been a good experiment in allowing states to make their own choice based on the cultural and financial needs that are unique to each state.
