The simple solution to all of this is to just clone Bernie Sanders 537 times (435 for House of Representatives, 100 for Senate, 1 for President and 1 for VP).

Or we could just make him king of the US. That amount of power would never corrupt anyone right?
In the almost 21 years I have lived, nothing has shown me that these people deserve to lead millions of people or deserve the time of day from me.
This isn't to you but just a general statement. It always makes me laugh when people say their entire life when really they start to think logically in their mid to late teens about anything. But I understand why you don't want to vote. But voting is power.
There are a lot of people who run for offices that can do good and are respectable. The only thing is that they are FARLY overshadowed by the scumbag politicians that have all the money and support by people who tell them what to do.
That's why people have to vote for politicians like Bernie Sanders.

Exactly.
This is why we need a knowledgeable and informed population. This is why Science, History, Current Events, etc, all need to be taught in school. This is why news organizations need to be held to a stronger and stricter code of ethics.
Things need to change, and they will only change from the bottom up, not from the top down. We, the people, have to show them that we know what we are talking about, we know what we want and need, and that we, the people, are in charge of this nation. Once that happens, hell will break loose, but things will be far, far better for it.
I weep because I do not see this ever happening...
Vive la revolution! But seriously, the major problem I see is that the media controls the masses. The fact is, the television has taken so much place in our lives that it has actually a grasp on it. We grew up with it... from 3 years old to your current age, it acquired a certain status where it acts as a mentor and parent. We therefore have a lot of ease to accept horrible concepts as undeniable truths from an omnipotent picture. This is bad, no more free thinking for normal citizens. If you don't know better, you're gullible as the rest of them =/.
I've read an article about a study where people were invited to a tv show. In it, they had to give an electric shock each time the "victim" answered wrong to a certain question. Now the intensity of the electric shocks ranged from 10 V for the first wrong question to 800 V max. From 500V you can potentially kill someone. I must say that the show was a set up and that everything was simulated....except the test subjects (invited citizens). The conclusion was that more than 90% of the people went and gave the maximum dose of 800V because they did not dare revolt against the authority that represented the TV show. They went to 800V despite the fact that the "victim" seemed to suffer greatly after 400 V and stopped responding after 500V. This is crazy! When they were asked why they went this far as to kill a man, these normal people all said :" Since it's a TV show, it's not possible that I was really killing someone". This my friends is power, being able to control people and suppressing their moral values in order to impose yours. BAD FOR THE FUTURE!
The problem is though, that half politicians will say one thing then get elected and just do something outright different, and next time we wont vote for him, but then it's just another douche bag who does the same thing. And it is a cycle that almost always repeats itself. I say if they are Good and actually helped us out they should be allowed to stay in government for as long as they are voted in. And yeah he might get corrupt and fuck us over eventually, but at the beginning he will have had more time to do more good and will have helped us out.

Voltage doesn't kill you, amperage does. Police tasers are 50K volts but only hit you with like .01 amps then drop to like 1200volts after contact. You can get hit with 2 million volts a not die. But you can get hit with 100 volts and 1 amp and your 6 feet under the ground. Sorry for the detour. Back on hating the government.

I agree pretty much 100% with Umpa.
