One of the great problems of our time is the lack of trust in democracy. I still believe it's the best system we have so far. The important thing is that there remains the opportunity for people like you to express their discontent. As long as there is freedom, there is hope that things can be corrected. What we must all strive to defend unconditionally is freedom; everything else follows from that. I also believe that education is still very much needed so that people can form their own opinions and defend themselves against the manipulations of old and new media and social networks.
Thank you for sharing, dear friend. A big hug from Maracay.
I believe it to be the best system ever devised too, if we could just get a handle on the corruption. Age limits, term limits, and an end to lobbying are the only ways I can think of to help. I feel like losing all hope of it getting better isn't the best way forward but can't blame those who find themselves in that place. Thanks for reading, it's great hearing from you again! Enjoy your weekend.
