    I actually disagree. Removing it is a democratic idea. We already have 2 houses of Congress which must agree to pass legislation and the president must sign it unless Congress can muster a supermajority.

    Any voter has had 4 chances in the ballot box to represent their interest, we do not need to set artificially higher standards to prevent legislation from passing.

    If voters sow the wind by electing lawmakers that support reckless or harmful policy, then voters should reap the whirlwind that results.
