    OK, that’s some US issues.

    But if enough people want something, it’ll happen. It’s just that 50% of the US hates the other 50% and vice versa.

    Abortion has long been a contentious issue and will probably be a big part of the election. Republicans are currently shooting themselves in the foot with that.

      If enough people want something it’ll happen… how? Like no seriously how? Is there some reason that the people shouldn’t be allowed to directly vote on things? Are you saying that elected officials are reliable in implementing the needs of their constituents? Why is politics so contentious then?
