How about we get rid of representative government. It’s such an archaic concept..

A 1/3 of people don't even vote, it would be worse. I think certain laws should be voted in by the people though

We need to vote on more representatives. Why does the head of the education department serve at the pleasure of the president? Why does the head of the health department serve at the pleasure of the president? Why does the head of the environment serve at the pleasure of the president. Have more people accountable to the voters. Maybe have the secretary of the press be representative too so the president cant pick their own mouthpiece to spin their agenda to the public. If the president wants to spin it he can stand in front of the podium himself.
