I think it would work. But would Americans want it? If Texas ever secedes from the nation, I’d recommend that system here.
I wouldn't mind the system. I served my hitch.
Any system will work as long as the guys with the guns want it to. Will it work as well as they taught in the “History and Moral Philosophy” classes? Don't know.
It couldn't be worse than what we've got today, with unelected federal judges and nameless bureaucrats making the rules, and a gutless Congress unwilling to stop them.
