Scrap Elections & Have Lotteries [View all]

[TheTruthBeKnown]

Face it, elections are purchases. The powers that be prop up the biggest whore and fun his election. Then after the 'election' the whore does everything his rich pimps tell him to do.

Our founders couldn't foresee the massive amounts of money in politics. So we need to change the system.

If we had lotteries instead of elections we'd surely have a better quality and more honest government. Everyone could qualify if they pass the constitution's qualifications for office. We'd end up with a government staffed by our next door neighbors and regular people. No matter how much money corporations or the rich have it would have no effect on a lottery.

I even thought a lottery from only a pool of prisoners would give us a better, more honest government than what we have now. Ok, l guess we could omit mass murderers and other violent criminals but I believe even they would be more honest than the criminals who are in office now.

I know there are a few good people in office but having just a few is not enough. We need most to be honest. But that will never become a reality until we take every dime out of politics. Until we are on the verge of a revolution those in office will never change campaign finance laws substantially. They are only in office because they have sold out to the richest pimps so there's no hope that they will r er do what's good for the US or Americans.

A lottery from local, state to national would put people from all walks of life into office and regular people can solve problems better than any rich political whore.

Once a person serves his term in office he goes back home. He won't go to K-Street or to a corporate board. That would be prohibited for life. After serving their terms they'd resume the jobs they had before they were selected by lottery. Because they knew they'd have to go back to live where they came from they'd be ever mindful of all the decisions and votes they made while in office.

Lets end the whoredom the US has become. Washington DC is a national bordello, not a seat of government. We could change that even with outlandish proposals like using lotteries to select our officeholders.

How would you like to wake up one morning and realize you're a US Senator?
