Necessary Political Reform
Man it’s tough with politics right now. We struggle to even have a conversation with other people, and that’s because we’re locked into 2 “sides.” There are so many important issues, how can each and every one of them fall onto one “side” or the other? Life is not a dichotomy, and the American political system shouldn’t be either. In some way, we need to move the levers of the system to create more diverse representation in our government. There is little precedent, and the powers that be want to maintain the status quo—because they’re the ones in power. But it’s hard to see us accomplishing anything else without first reforming the system and creating new incentivization structures. It’s not impossible. It’s necessary.
