>>16471322>well that's just how it works right nowRight, but it's just that I think the chances of it changing for the better are really low, and even if this were pushed for by anyone, it would be prevented from happening by the incredibly corrupt government already in place. Because it's just not in their interests for how things work right now to change, and I doubt the next generation of people in power will have any different views. Fat chance, in my opinion. Being too hopeful.
This would be a matter of literally everybody in a position of power not wanting things to change and doing what they can for it to not happen, rather than anything like one politician losing or winning. These same terrible people would have to get together and not be terrible for one second, in order for it to happen.
Your argument is that it'll slowly set into place, but I feel like it wouldn't be allowed to move at all, let alone slowly. There wouldn't ever be an outcry for it, because the idea is just not going to be brought up to the masses. Who probably wouldn't like it at first impressions, anyhow. They're convinced that they have the right to vote and it's something that they should greatly value, so, the suggestion of the government taking that away would just come off as unacceptable to your average American.
I'm basically saying that people are too scummy for it to happen.
Like you said, change over generations could be a thing, but all we can do about that is guess. What if the mindset people have three generations from now is practically the same as the ones of today, at least with this specific regard? I guess it depends on how optimistic you are.
Oh, but rather than implementing it into an already established country, it could be considered by whoever picks up the torch after the inevitable collapse and power vacuum. Which is still only hoping.
