Are we at risk of losing our democratic form of government?

Probably.

But let's be honest, here.

Taxation with representation isn't so hot either.

I love the movie "The Patriot" in which Mel Gibson says, "Why should I exchange one tyrant three thousand miles away for 3000 tyrants one mile away?"

Taxation with representation. Not 1000, but 535 of them in the US Capital.

Not when the ruling classes draw district maps like this:

Is that "representation"...?
