How do you think we got the current laws?
That's right, we got the current laws because groups of people could convince sufficient people to change the existing law to their views. That is a continuous proces and has served over hundreds of years to produce the laws that are currently in place.
Are you seriously suggesting we stop changing law, send the entire legislative body home and live with the current laws forever?
