I've always wondered how we have created the system within which we find ourselves. It is possible for someone to write this well about an argument and obviously be in the right. But somehow, their argument will either be completely ignored or rebutted with a comment that doesn't properly argue the article. The injust law will then be passed regardless.

I'm talking in generalizations and not about this issue specifically. However it is a recurring theme that some invasive law will be proposed, and reasonable people reasonably argue why it shouldn't pass, and it passes anyway. How have we allowed this to happen?
