You do recognize, do you not, that the Republican party currently controls the
House of Representatives, the Senate, the Executive Branch and some might argue
the Supreme Court as well, right? That being the case, it's kind of up to the
people who are running things to fix it, is it not?

Right now, with the threat of eliminating the filibuster, the court of last
resort for any minority party, the democratic party has been effectively
removed from the process in a very significant way.

So much for the theory of checks-and-balances.
