We have a functioning political system, and not nearly as much power concentrated into the hands of a single person.

- pseudalopex 2y agoFor now.
- mrkeen 2y agoThree branches of government, two houses, mix of federal and state powers, checks and balances, an impeachment system, all that stuff?
- Aeolun 2y agoI think key is not having an executive branch that consists of a single person and/or party.
- Hikikomori 2y agoOur elected officials don't have any direct power over government agencies (ministerstyre), they create laws that the agencies need to follow. Then we have independent bodies that can investigate and remove bureaucrats that don't follow the law. Now are there any cracks in this system? Probably. But we dont have a president with unlimited power than can only be checked by congress at this point.
