Ranked choice voting would help, but I like that "throw the bum out" option mentioned here.
Showerthoughts
A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----
I agree ranked choice voting would be nice. But i think the american people can get behind someone if they know they plan to smite him for it later.
He should march the military into congress and arrest those dirty politicians. Democracy is evil and needs to be wiped out.
(Joking)
I don't think the president could unilaterally implement this, but it would be nice to be able to vote a president out of office if they're really fucking things up.
It is called an impeachment and it shouldn't be used willy nilly
That's not really in the hands of the people though.
Well you do vote for officials
