As valid and reasonably presented as the points are in this thread, it simply can't continue. I will neither post my agreement nor disagreement. I am obligated to close this thread due to current rules on politics.
Being someone with an expertise in political science, I do have some advice for everyone here.
Contact your elected officials to express your opinions. You gave them jobs, so they owe it to you to do your bidding in office. They can only represent you when you ask them to do something.
Because this thread technically violates the no politics rule, this thread is closed. No infractions will be issued.
