Democracy won’t be restored until we increase the number of political parties in this country and fix how our officials are elected. I wish I had the answer on how to solve this, but alas… I’ll defer to people who are smarter than me.
No hope even with that, as long as Citizens United is still alive and kicking.
> Democracy won’t be restored until we increase the number of political parties in this country
Parliamentary systems with many parties run into a different kind of dysfunction. Belgium didn't have a government for like two years relatively recently because they couldn't form a big enough coalition. In a democracy, there is no magic bullet that does not involve the quality of the demos.
What is your idea of democracy that needs to be restored in this country?
