Why can't we have national referendums on assisted suicide, how medical marijuana should be distributed, legalization of marijuana ( f the united states this time), safe injection sites and if polygamy should be legalized? isn't this our country?

Because referendums are expensive.

Seems reasonable to me.

Issues on spending are different, because people will vote to spend but not to tax.

Also, referendums only encourage the agenda freaks to come out from under the rocks.

The current process at least weeds these freaks out.

The fact that you can't even realise I'm saying education failed you speaks volumes.

This should be fun.

that does not mean I am stupid, that means I am not willing to slop in the mud with you

btw, that was an epic choke by the Canucks
enjoyed it thoroughly
