A project to change constitutions needs to be pushed by politicians. But politicians suck, which implies they will not be inclined to push for constitution changes.
So the system converges to a suck-state.
- Rygian 3y agoI wrote this comment as a sort of factual observation of cause and effect. However, I see it is downvoted without replies. What have I missed?
- xedrac 3y agoChange constitutions to what? I think people are far too quick to throw away things they don't fully understand the value of.
- boxed 3y agoWell.. it doesn't HAVE to be. But the alternative is revolution, which is often (always?) much worse than the sucky system in the first place. That's why we are stuck here. But I do think it's possible to have change. I am an optimist. But first we need to try different things on a smaller scale. Municipalities is a good level.
