Tracker Posted November 10, 2022 Report Share Posted November 10, 2022 5 minutes ago, 17to85 said: Democracy is worth the cost. I prefer the French system wherein potential candidates must first gather a certain amount of signatures from the riding to register as candidates and then spend a very limited amount of money, but all media must give equal exposure to all qualified candidates for free. The runners-up get their expenses reimbursed if they get a certain percentage of the winners' votes. Winning candidates have their jobs ensured if/when they return to their previous jobs, and employers are reimbursed to train a backfill employee, and if the winning candidate's job is made obsolete or substantially changed, when s/he returns, s/he will be trained so as to either fit the old job or qualified for a new one. 2 minutes ago, JCon said: I believe he's referring to the amount spent by the campaigns, not the state to deliver the election. Apparently the candidates spent some 9 billion dollars during the recent campaign. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the US military has 750,000,000,000 to play with. But America cannot afford a good public education system, clean drinking water for all or universal healthcare. And veterans' services are inadequate to the extent where more US servicemen have been lost to suicide since the Iraqi war than died in the war. The same is true for those who served in Viet Nam. Helluva war-glorifying system. the watcher 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
