I didn&#x27;t say government as in the democratic implementation we have now. Democratic or not, I meant that the function of the government should just be ensuring justice, promoting civility, ensuring health care, providing quality education for everyone. If the 55% in control doesn&#x27;t want the other 45% to have those, then thats a problem with the society -that shows severe segregation.<p>We are not modernizing and improving laws to reflect changing times. Can give plenty of examples for that. Instead we are clinging to what forefathers thought was best at the time. We are in the best time to implement true democracy. Are the red and blue candidates your only choice? Is it so hard to implement a better way to field candidates based on merits&#x2F;goods that you do for society rather than dirty politics? Too much change too soon will often not be well received. So things needs to be improved one by one. But I don&#x27;t see that happening. All I see is government desperate to violate on the rights of people.<p>Hell, if you could build grandiose scale systems to snoop on people, it not that hard to build something that betters the living condition of people. Currently the government doesn&#x27;t care. Too much energy(time, money, lives) are spent on waging meaningless wars. Now if that much energy were to be focused on advancement of society..
