I disagree on that. Part of our problem is that those in government don’t really understand governance and the sustem is complex. That takes time and mentorship, a jury duty like system might make bribing harder, but it would make a functional government next to impossible.

No more 2-year presidential runs or congresspeople needing to fundraise and run for their entire term.
