Can the US reform its political system to be a more modern democracy without bloodshed?
Reform? What's this claim that becoming a modern democracy being a “reformation?”For over 200 years, America has thrived with her system known as a republic. Over this time frame we've always hadA peaceful transition of power (Which is actually pretty rare compared to most other nations)A booming economy, which has rebounded every time it got lowBecome a world leaderSocially progressed on things it should have (like banning slavery and legalizing gay marriage) and held its ground on other progressive ideas that aren't so good (like eugenics) (In the words of Bill Clinton “The left has torn down walls that shouldn't be there and the right has prevented the left from tearing down walls that should be there”)Now granted, I get it: American politics are extremely different from European politics (like how we see Bernie Sanders as a extreme leftist nut job while Europe would see him as centeris). And I get that what y’all’ve been doing has been working for y’all. But at the same time what we've been doing has been working for us too, and while y'all can do whatever y'all want, personally I'll stick to what has shown to work, and not the stuff that Athens has proven to fail…
Politics: Why don't liberals move to North Korea?
They should. I'm sure you heard that there's a conspiracy theory out there saying that Sandy Hook was a hoax in order to get rid of the 2nd amendment. You can watch videos on youtube of Sandy Hook being a hoax. It may have happened but you never know. Some things didn't add up like the fund page was made a day before the shooting, the car that Adam Lanza was supposedly driving was not his mother's car, on Facebook of the people who passed away said RIP a few days before the incident, there's no video tape of Adam Lanza entering the school, on video there's no parents crying hysterically or any emotion whatsoever, etc. Some people think that those families got paid off from the government and entered into a witness protection program to change their names. It's always good to have an open mind because the whole Sandy Hook thing seems like it is a hoax.
What is more dangerous in the long run: Corporatism or Marxism?
they are both equally dangerous as they both are defacto tyranny and oligarchy. In reality, Marxism has been debunked and is no longer a credible ideology primarily because we now know of the market inefficiencies and impotent economies that it yields. The real danger today is corporatism, as it masquerates as free market capitalism...but corporatism is basically govt that is controlled by big corporations and the wealthy...and the wealthier they get from the pro corporations laws and policies their minion politicians push through, the more powerful they become..and its vicious cycle of greater and greater wealth and control for them and less wealth and control of govt by the people.
