    TBF, it did work reasonably well back then. You can’t expect people from the 18th century to design a political system that would work in the 21st.

        My point is that the US political system is in very dire need of a fundamental overhaul. The forces that prevent this are explicitly doing so to prevent the will of the people from being enacted.
