IMO, the biggest problem is with the 2 party system. Wev'e had pretty much a 2 party system for as long as the US has existed, and I think it sucks. At least back in the day the 2 parties would at least agree to compermise. Today its more of an all-or-nothing policy.
The problem is, I cant really think of a better way. Would a multi-party system like italy work out better? I doubt it. Multi party systems give greater representation to extremist groups, and are very unstable, so that sucks too, just in a different way.
I agree, we should address the problems in our country, but how? Naturally, if I was in charge it would be better, since everyone knows I'm always right. But, unfortunately I'm immensely lazy and am not up to the chalange, so the question remains, what do we do first if twe want to change the country for the better?
