I'm not really happy with our democracy. It always feels like our say stops at the ballot box, we need more direct democracy.
Eight years ago I would have agreed. But, I think we've demonstrated the short comings of putting authority for our most important policies in the hands of your average citizen.
I don't have a better answer, mind you. Hopefully someone way further right on the "average citizen" bell curve has better ideas.
