My point was that a Republic is just as susceptible to abuse by the government as a pure democracy...

Most Republics have not lasted...

There is nothing inherently more stable about a Republic than a pure democracy...

Well, we'll just have to disagree on the Republic verses Democracy debate.

Like I've stated ..no one could convince me that they're equal in stability.

I'm speaking of the United States Republic and its checks and balance system.

Not a c*******t dictator form of Republic.

The question is what do we shrink? The military? Regulatory agencies? FCC? FDA? CIA? NSA?

Be specific.

Another reason for me to bite the bullet and v**e Trump if she’s the nominee.

Please explain, isn’t that what the Constitution and bill of rights are designed to protect us from? The abuses that can creep into a republic!

Every republic is unique...

Point to another that is comparable to the US?

One would hope...

When a government gets too powerful what is to stop them?

I’m more worried about the regulatory staff. They have way too much power for unelected people.

They are definitely dangerous but I still think the military industrial complex is more dangerous.

I don’t know- we’re getting hit from multiple directions. Monsanto has far too much control over our food, small farmers and ranchers are getting pushed out or swallowed up by corporate farms and ranches and Big pharma carges exorbitant prices. To name a few.

I can’t see any changes forthcoming with any of the current candidates.

Fact
In my opinion. Each citizen has a responsibility to learn as much as possible regarding a specific issue. With social media they can find others that are also informed about the issue and figure out a strategy to address it. Then do something.

I would excuse the learning disabled.
