We need a complete overhaul of our political party system.

Both parties decided that seniority = power, and if you’ll always have more next year, it’s never a good time to step aside.

With a “bonus” that younger generations never get the experience till they’re also old as shit. The parties have no reason to change, because they’re ran by the most senior people.

Parties have far too much influence considering they’re not officially part of the government. And the current state of shit is why a lot of founding fathers were against them. I think Jefferson or Franklin wanted to explicitly forbade them
