Sadly, I’m not sure there is a perfect solution. Paul Harvey used to say,"“Self-government without self-discipline leads to self-destruction.”Our problem is more about self-interest than self-government.
No,it would not harm democracy, it would harm rural America. It would turn control of America to a few large cities and the rural, blue collar worker would have no representation in the federal government.
As cliche as it is, “democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on what’s for dinner”.
The only reason people don’t understand it’s usefulness is because it is not explained well in schools anymore. Straight democracy creates a “bully” state.
Shouldn’t that be, “Hot ‘Pork’ Injection”?
