Thanks for the well thought out comment. I don't disagree with any of it. Mostly, I'm just trying to emphasize that we have a little more time than people realize.

The complexity of federal systems and their traditionally poor interdependence, is both good and bad. Good, in that, as the article says, it will take a long time to make major changes.

Bad, in all the ways you say. They can do a lot of damage with minor, dumb ass code changes or a little tinkering.

The goal needs to be to get them out of there pronto. Dems should be making this a priority and treating it like I said it is at the beginning of the article: A coup d'etat.

There's a wee bit of time, but not much. Thanks again for the comment. Your alarm is warranted.
