The election that we just had was a repudiation of the status quo: an overly-regulated system that is no longer responsive, or delivering, for the needs of The People... government is theoretically a constitutional system of checks and balances between equally powerful branches. But what government actually is, is an overly-complicated, byzantine, bureaucratic maze of rules, loopholes to those rules, and norms; complex enough that ???? if you want to find a rule that keeps you from doing something, you'll find it; and ???? if you actually want to do something, you can find a loophole to get around said rule. And then the norms are just how often you've had to pull any of this shit.
