A real revolution needs to come from the mind. Replacing the current set of dynasties with another set of dynasties is not the way. A real revolution involve changing the status quo, transforming our current set of institutions to an inclusive. Like federal-parliamentary government

I really disagree with another revolution.

This is just meant to be a primer and is not meant to be an "academic" argument on why we need economic charter reform and the audience was meant for my friends so I am sorry about the casual style of writing. Also forgive me if there are times I kinda gloss […]
