The biggest problem with poverty in America is the system that produced it. It’s not enough to simply help those in need; we need to stop helping those who are not in need but just want more anyway. They pay millions to sway elections of people who’ll siphon off billions to them.

If more people who don’t like the system had actually voted over the last forty years, those who prop it up wouldn’t have amassed such power. The chronic political disengagement of too many Americans has led to perpetual control by too few.

Representative democracy has never worked. It would have been better if the public could directly vote on war and other things. The North Korean War, Vietnam, Iraq, most likely would have never occurred. Nor the abolishment of the 1955 tax rate. tax-brackets.org/federaltaxt…
