You aren't an adult until you stop blaming others for your problems in life.

Some people make it their life’s work to fully understand all sides of an argument. Some people even change their opinions based on evidence and changing perceptions.

No they don't.
Its a clickbait world, no one is honest anymore. Everyone has biases, prejudices.
Truth is a pejorative

I don't believe there should be any career politicians that stay in one role for their entire careers.
First step to address this would be the obvious term limit. For lower level positions, they can be longer than two term but the more power you get, the shorter the term gets. So, you could get voted to the House of Reps and stay there for 3 or 4 terms tops, then you either run for a Senate Seat or retire. You get to be a Senator for 2-3 terms then you can run for President or retire. President gets 2 terms. There would be no pre-req to be President, but it'll be the end of your political career essentially after your term is up or you get elected out of office.

Nobody who doesn't pay a net of at least $2000 in Federal income tax should be allowed to vote.
What if I'm retired and just living off of my Roth IRA and long term gains in a brokerage account? I wouldn't pay any taxes on the Roth withdrawals and just long term capital gains rate from the brokerage account. $0 paid in federal income tax. Seems a bit silly.
Or maybe I'm a medical resident with a stay at home wife and 2 children. I make $55k/yr and have $0 in federal income tax liability. Should I be allowed to vote?

In those cases, we could allow you to donate $2000 annually.
Or maybe use some of your past paid taxes as a credit. Get us this close, and I'm sure we can iron out the details.

Men should be able to duel without repercussions with mutual consent and two impartial witnesses. Firearms would not be allowed. Define impartial however you like. Let’s say outside immediate household.
Your home is your castle. Trespassing allows homeowner to provide reasonable means to secure his property. That includes expanding use of force above currently allowed limits (i.e. I can shoot you on the porch if I choose and decide you’re a threat).
