If people don’t ever get a chance to experience the consequences of their beliefs and votes they will have no opportunity to learn and grow.

- toomuchtodo 6y agoWhile I agree, some people will never learn and grow regardless. "Touching the hot stove" doesn't work at national policy scale imho. It's like asking sea creatures to evolve fast enough to be able to exist at the rate of acidification due to CO2 saturation. It just ain't gonna happen. Poor decisions will catch up faster than folks are going to learn.
- srswtf123 6y agoThe consequences of people’s votes don’t matter when political affiliation is handed down within families similarly to religious affiliation. The number of people that say “I vote for X because my family votes for X; we’re X people” is simply astounding. Expecting rational behavior from irrational beginnings doesn’t work well in my experience.
