The current system works well for those with political power and economic wealth, protecting it and entrenching it.Big corporations (including the big media) and major political parties have no motivation to change the system.
The dumbing-down of public discourse to simple, often trivial issues plays right into their hands. [or I'm the archbishop of Canterbury!]
But their power depends on our complacency.
Think about your children and grandchildren, decide what are your real issues, and start talking about them, and doing something about them.
Don't wait for the politicians and other 'leaders' to catch up -- there's nothing in it for them.
It's time to leave them behind, give up on them, and take matters into our own hands, before it's too late
