I don't think proponents of the filibuster grasp just how much easier it is to pass legislation in other high-income nations than it is in the United States. Even if we abolished the filibuster, which we should, the legislative process would still be more difficult here than for most of our international contemporaries. The notion that we would descend into irreparable instability if we made legislating a bit easier is just not supported by what we see around the world.
