> see iceland Support banks until the goverment collaps? Does not sound like a great idea. > If you live and a free country and abstain from participating in politics, then in my opinion you have abdicated your responsibility as a citizen. Voting is irrational form any perspective. Political organisation is not really worth the time it costs. Thats that sad true, economily speaking the goverment is a externality it would be good if everybody did inform themself be active (add so on) but in reality you yourself doing it is just a waste of time. For that reason the idea came up that there should be a constitution. The problem is that that did not work very well, the constitution was just overruled or ignored (for sometimes good reasons). What to make of the situation is hard, some people want more federalism so the voter is more effected by his opinion, but many people oppose that because why have good things someplace and bad other places, it would be much better to have good things everywhere.Other people want a new constitution, but I do not see any reason why that would not end the same as the other consitution. Again other have tons of ideas, change the style of voting, change the style of representation and so on. Again others become anarchists.
