I feel like if our voting system wasn't skewed so heavily toward Republicans (between the Electoral College, gerrymandering being legal, and a general "states can run their elections however they want" to allow Republican-controlled states to make whatever changes they want to favor themselves), we'd see a lot more progress. Instead, it's harder and harder for liberals to vote, the votes count for less and less, and we're barely scraping to just vote out fascists (if possible).

Fix the voting system, and we might get something worthwhile out of Democrats other than undoing some of their predecessors terrible actions and giving just enough to their supporters to whet their appetite without ever leaving them satisfied.
