The problem as I see it is that most of the important issues facing society today cannot be remedied at a lower level (inequality, global warming, anything related to the internet) or are the direct result of lower level corruption (discrimination).
Agreed, thanks for following up, these are likely near impossible to solve at a local level. I don’t have good solutions, and I certainly don’t envy the folks we elected who really do need them.
It’s good that it stalls in that condition, IMO. I’d expect unaligned moves in Congress to cause social strife.
Can we remedy things at a lower level before we push a fix through and apply it to half the country that doesn’t want it?
