Possible solution to all our problems?

As many people know, America is divided on almost everything. It's about 50/50 on every political topic, and nothing is getting done. So how about we make a congressional coin? This may sound weird, but it could work. We argue about any topic for 2-3 years. If no solution can be found in this time, we flip the coin. If it goes badly, we can always change it later, but at least we can have an answer. Just curious as to what you think about my random idea.

Update:

@look at my jugs Like I said, we could change it later.

@quipman First, the same could be said about any political party. Second, the last presidential election shows my point.

@Tringle I agree. We need a more educated populace. This is only a random idea on how to just pick something and try it.

@Huh You're probably right. We'd need to flip the coin to see how to flip the coin. Haha.

    Congress wouldn't be able to agree on how to flip the coin and who got to flip it. They'd argue for five years about whether the right or the left hand should be used and then insist that whoever eventually got to flip the thing was a communist sympathizer and a cheater.

    Nice idea, though.

    First problem to solve is the lie that is repeated everyday by the sorry press that the country is split 50/50 which is not true but nothing more than a GOP minority mindset taking point used by the Republicans when the american people are not on their side of a issue.

    Knowledge is the only solution. Too many ignorant people that are products of the progressive ran schools and media.

    That sorta is going antagonistic to human rights. THats an identical element as kidnapping, fairly if a criminal immigrant who supported the illeagals replaced into going to the protest. And does no longer this is kinda stupid if an armored bus stated that it replaced into for illeagal immigrants? Their illeagal no longer stupid. Oh and howdy with invaders? Your performing like they arrive to strive against us. they purely elect jobs.

    when politicians compromise the only people who win are the politicians.........i'd say give policy made by the coin 18 months to get results or it gets the boot........
