> I believe the discussion should rather focus on the role of the law in the public life
This is exactly my concern. This flies over most people’s head.
During the Barret confirmation process I became very interested in the Supreme Court and was surprised to find that I much preffered Justice Scalia’s approach to the the law. To the point where I came to respect a decision I previously thought abhorrent: Citizens United.
Citizens United was the right decision in light of how the legislature wrote the law. The law should have approached that topic in a constitutional manner.
The people really need to get their act together and actually see what Congress is doing. Don’t let the media do the “work” for you. Its not that the news is fake—its that they dont give you the news. To the point of not publishing the texts produced by the governement. The texts are public and can be understood. Unfortunately they are obfuscated by the media which wont list it as a source.
Every power centre in America will happily point the finger somewhere else while the entire system repeatedly fights the same battles, one generation after the next.
This dissipates the political power and attention of the individual, leaving the naked pursuit of profit unmolested.
