It's crazy that most of the country looked at that and said either "I want that" or "That's fine, I don't care".
They didn't look at that. This is the frustrating truth we have to come to terms with. People are fucking oblivious. They vote for a single issue at most, and don't understand what they signed up for.
This may sound controversial and no I don't have a way to implement it, but we should probably have a means to screen the knowledge of voters over the things they're voting on before they can access a ballot box.
I've been thinking about this lately. Is this the moment when we realize a democracy isn't all it's cracked up to be?
