"The Stonies"
![]() They aren't famous for being upholders of democracy; in fact, they're not famous for anything AFAIK. But by 2022, thanks to the GOP, American voters may find themselves looking up with envy at the Stonies. Next year the hapless American voters, with their one drop box per zillion inhabitants and their polling stations open for a full 3 hours only, will be fainting from heat exhaustion as they wait in line to vote. Emergency medical workers will be shot on sight for trying to give voters a bottle of water, and everyone will be thinking, "If only the US could have elections like Estonia!" Thinking back to a pre-Trump era, MB members, with a more musical frame of mind, will probably be humming to themselves an old Dylan song:- "I must have been mad
I never knew what I had Until I threw it all away"
