    you ever notice that when a vote is 49-51 conservatives win whether they’re the 49 or the 51? Or how if it looks like they’re gonna lose the vote by a large enough margin to actually lose that they can just prevent a vote from happening at all? You ever wonder how the government dare call itself “representative” and then ignore something that 92% of us want?

      The Constitution was designed to make change difficult because the founders feared a strong government. It’s unfortunately a design feature. It’s why it’s harder to actually address a problem instead of preserving the status quo.
