The United States Constitution creates a government of the people, by the people, and for the people… At least that is what the taxpayer funded government-controlled youth indoctrination centers hammered into our heads since age 5. Is it though? In Alabama’s 2022 legislative elections all 140 seats are up for reelection. Of those, 106 seats are running unopposed, meaning only one of the two major parties has candidate(s) seeking that seat. Of these unopposed seats, sixty-five do not even have a challenger in the primary. Almost half of Alabamians will be “represented” by a person who had their seat handed to them. This is not democracy. It is a coronation. It is oligarchy with extra steps.
Of, By, And For The People? Hardly!
