Read the Federalist Papers, paying particular attention to the intended limits of the powers of the national government, and compare that to what we have going on inside the beltway today. Then tell me that sumbitch ain't broke.
I don’t think we disagree. My point is that anyone tells us they can “fix” it is lying. It’s not broken. It’s just the way it works (or doesn’t actually). Best you can do is severely prune it back.
