    Trust me I’m well aware of the failings of my country. That doesn’t mean I can’t recognize one of them or that you have to remind me of their existence when I do.

    In other words, I get it but you’re not helping.

      You said that they don’t represent the people, I was correcting you. Neither of us enjoy the fact that they represent an unfortunate number of people, but they do.

      What this also means is that they can be removed if enough people stop fucking voting for them. They are not kings, not yet anyway.

        I never said they didn’t? But I get how you got there.

        Agreed, we need to pick our representatives better :(

          I’ll take that.

          I just hope we figure out how to not suck before picking our representatives becomes…more difficult.
