>The DEA is limited by statute to enforcing drug related federal crimes.

How can we repair a system that's been systematically corrupted over several years? As a systems engineer my instinct is to rebuild the system from the ground up. If only politics was that simple.

The answer appears to be build a new system quietly behind the scenes and then abruptly switch over to it one day without regard to the difference between systems.

The U.S. is more a tale of peacefully handing power between two separate systems that both constantly evolve.

From time to time, these two systems lead to a state of cognitive dissonance which threatens their existence until a time in which the rubber band violently snaps back to an equilibrium.
