Our Government Was Never Meant to Look Like This
The United States is a constitutional republic, not a democracy. Today I'm going back to the original text of the Constitution to uncover what it actually says, and just as importantly, what it doesn't.
The Constitution never mentions health, education, or retirement. The president was never meant to wield this much power. The Senate was never supposed to be directly elected. And the First Amendment almost wasn't about free speech at all.
The Founding Fathers didn't trust pure democracy. After 250 years, it's pretty clear they were right.
