RE: Response to @dwinblood : Representative government is great, just need better reps! #steemit - #anarchism
@positive I like your title, and agree we do need better reps at all levels of Government. I think that most public servants forget somewhere along the line that there job is for the greater good of the public, but a lot of times it becomes the pocketing linings of these politicians that reaps the benefits of our system. And of course they blame everyone else BUT themselves.
Have you ever been a delegate? I have. The likelihood of you getting better representatives is getting more and more difficult. Corruption exists and is growing pretty much all the way through the process. Representatives at this point are more or less ensured to be similar to the representatives we already have. That's who those benefiting most from their actions want in place. They've altered the bylaws, and even ignored them when convenient in both the DNC and RNC. Then take it further and consider the fact we even talk about parties. We should be talking about representatives. Crazy world.
