Then start a violent revolution to install a government that will mandate this and whatever else you want by fiat. But until then or otherwise, stop pretending that unelected officials making decisions beyond the authority delegated to them by elected officials is democratic.
- PhasmaFelis 2y agoThe thing in this particular case, as you know, is that we have a very obviously biased Supreme Court making decisions based on what's good for the corporations paying them, instead of either settled precedent or the intentions of the original legislators. The intended checks having failed, they're allowed to do this. You're old enough to know that "allowed to" does not automatically mean "morally right." EDIT: Actually, let's bottom-line it: Stop pretending that pointing out any flaws in a democratic government is anti-democratic. That's exactly backwards.
