As much as I like the idea of starting all over again the people who will need to be the ones spearheading starting all over again aren't likely to be in positions to be able to do so and then all we end up with is the same thing with different people at the top pretending that somehow the exact same bullshit will magically be different/better because they're the ones in charge now.
ideally I'm wrong there and there's a lot more people with good ideas than we realise because the media will never ever cover anything in the same universe as actually informative and useful because that doesn't make money or something
As eldest and I were hiking over to our local polling booth (it's a really easy walk and we were walking pretty fast as we were worried about getting rained on but I was not driving down the freaking road XD) we were discussing using blockchain for voting and how that could be authenticated and anonymised, so there's hope somewhere.
