Is corruption mostly a good thing?
#11
RE: Is corruption mostly a good thing?
I recently signed up at this site represent.us. They have some interesting ideas of how to prevent corruption and enable collaboration between all parties even third party candidates. I think that is what we need. Tiered voting is one such idea so when Hillary and Trump were up against each other you could have voted for Bernie as your first choice and Hillary as second and when The Bernie votes didn't do the trick you would be assured that your second pick would get your vote. Many other ideas like term limits and preventing lobbying groups from giving money to a politician. Anyway, it is what is needed. Corruption is an artifact of politics, as politics is an artifact of social gathering. These are emergent necessities that arise from the fact that people need government and then people need to watchdog government to assure they are properly represented.
