I understand why people are frustrated with the current system in general. You wouldn't design it this way. We need more young politicians shaping the laws and more entrepreneurs improving society.
That can't happen, because political positions are basically hereditary. Do you know what happened to every other hereditary political system?
I call baloney. What percentage of the US Congress and governors, say, are people whose parents were in Congress and/or governors? I have no hard data, but my gut feel is less than 25%. That's basically not hereditary.
Anyone with hard data, step right up...
not literally parent-child hereditary but I mean the political class decides who succeeds itself
I get that it's a single case, but Darlene Graham did just take Lindsey Graham's spot, like, yesterday.
