Electorate tooeasily swayed
To the editor:
The existing U.S. electorate is absolutely and wholly not competent to operate the U.S. via democracy.
It is way, WAY too credulous and far, FAR too easily swayed by the manipulations and machinations of Big Money and of the MegaCorps via torrents of PoliGanda. As we speak, it is being successfully “Gaslighted” by the Trumpists!!!
We simply must start over. Now!!!
The entire Electorate must be placed into a fair, non-partisan Democracy Recovery Program which, among other issues, would clearly instruct the people of the dangers of Unregulated and Anonymous Money in Politics and to recognize when they are being covertly manipulated (Gaslighted).
Exhaustive instruction would explain the advantages and the pitfalls of the various economic systems – at least those that permit the genuine participation of informed citizens. Course materials and content would have to approved by recognized political scholars of all persuasions.
Under “Start-Over,” potential voters must pass a rigorous written examination on Political Economics before they would be qualified and allowed to vote.
