19. I personally believe that US Americans...
do not have copies of the US American Constitution, and therefore do not know what it says. I think that if we gave US Americans copies of the US American Constitution, they might have a clue.

No, but seriously, it's a flawed government, because it relies upon representation.

Also, the fact that our laws must take into account tons of cases, they are overly complex and difficult for the people to understand. If laws apply to fewer people, the probability of rare cases goes down, laws may be simpler, thusly more understandable and better understood by the populace.
