The illusion is more exciting when it's close.
lack of participation. This isn’t difficult.
Move election day to saturday or make election day on Tuesday a mandatory day off from most businesses.

Good lord but this is thick. If anything we suffer from far too much participation in elections.

Election Day should be a national holiday!!!
Answer: cheating
When he says he sees 'social utility' in journalism, that's just a round-about way to say 'some people value being informed on current events and investigations'. Problem with the legacy media is they fulfill neither function anymore. In their desperate efforts to keep revenues up while faced with the internet and to keep sponsors happy (both non-state and state), they've relied increasingly on yellow journalism. As quality continues to decline, the viewership declines, perpetuating the death spiral.
The silver lining is that as an obsolete industry model goes away, the need they used to fill doesn't, and entrepreneurs are always working to fill the needs of others. There's a lot of turmoil we death with due to misinformation from the legacy media now though, we're in a transition phase.
Because both parties want to be just popular enough to do all the unpopular shit that is actuall their animating purpose.
It shouldn't be
Nate Silver should explain why he’s pushing the agenda of Peter Thiel.
Elections are close because Dominion is counting the votes 😊
Both Candidates suck so many people are undecided 😢
I guess that the parties are going as far to the extremes as they can without losing so much of the middle that they can't be elected. If most of the populace feel the same, then you've got essentially a uni-party.
He lost me when he thought Hillary was gonna win
The Dems and Republicans can merge since they are essentially on the same team anyhow. We need a new party that actually represents what most of us want.
You are so right. A new party that focuses on the common man, not giant corporations, the ultra rich or other countries. A party that will push term limits and an end to lobbyists and citizens united.
@@mikeemerson1091 The Citizens United decision makes some sense if the context even as the justices said it was not good but it was constitutional. The problem is the first amendment in that one ... how do you have free speech AND do away with money in politics?
We should consider getting rid of political parties.
@@thespeez Do any countries that are not dictatorships have no political parties? I don't think we can get rid of all parties ... I just want the people running things now to be gone.
@@Scoots1994the US didn't have political parties for the first two elections of its existence.
Marketing never spends more than it has to. That's why the election is always 50/50. If it were 51/49, then they spent too much money. So it will always be 50/50 by virtue of marketing budget discipline. It really is a matter of marketing dollars. You could overcome 50/50, but why would you do that?
He is a very mean-spirited man not overly fond of the truth...down with Nate Silver!
