Wow, do I feel icky. I would be calling in sick if I hadn’t already arranged to work remotely. The kind of day I’m having ?
Started off on the Charles Goyette show where he was interviewing the Mark Osterloh who gathered more than 185,000 signatures to put his Arizona Voter Reward Act on the state ballot.
This man believes that bribing people to steal from us is a great thing. I’m not a fan of democracy ( note I didn’t say rebublic and if you don’t get the difference I think we already hate each other) it’s mob rule with a filing cabinet and impractical for a nation the size of the USA. As one caller pointed out there’s loads of people wanting more people to vote but the same effort spent on ensuring that votes are valid , and reproducible , seems to be of less import. It’s a shame that non participation in the system is seen as apathy when for many of those I know it’s the result of a logical process. Voting <> consent for the resulting decisions of the “majority” . Note just how stable the USA has been since the civil war, power passes from party to party it’s like there’s nothing that they fundamentally disagree on, nothing worth fighting for or holding on to, why it’s like an elite conspiracy ;)
I think I need to make a Weimar o mometer to apply to the posts. Ie does the news of the day feel like early 30′s mid 30′s or late 30′s Germany. You may recall democracy really came through in that situation:P
