    I’m actually 42. This is my sixth presidential election. I’m old enough to know this post is writing a check our government can’t cash. It’s too broken.

      It’s broken because of GOP and you’re willing to give GOP more power to break it further

        Calm your tits. I’ve been voting D like a good little neoliberal since 2000.

        I don’t need to give them more power. They’ve already elected two presidents without the popular vote, hold most of the Senate because it gives land more power than people, and the House because we haven’t fixed representation in a century. Not to mention the fuckery in every single one of the states they can pull off.

        The fact that Republicans are able to do that sort of shit is how it’s broken. They’re not the problem, they’re a symptom of people winning game with broken mechanics. Like the end of Monopoly when one asshole has all the money.
