Yes, I almost completely agree.
Except for the voting part. To vote on a problem, you need to know the potential solutions. We barely know the questions to ask regarding what is necessary to teach a child to be a well-formed person. And laws in those cases lead to serious unintended consequences.
- lordfrito 4y agoRock bottom is the point where it hurts so bad you realize you don't have the solutions anymore, and now you're willing to try anything. Only then are you open to evaluating outside solutions. When the general public reaches that point, they will be ready to listen to any other solutions being preached. A few election cycles later there should be a "sane-ish" majority consensus on which of the new ideas seems to be working. As you said, you can't expect too much immediately.
- solarmist 4y agoI agree; I only hope voting doesn't come into it. Because old laws are never repealed, they are only added to.
