Why is Russia's sole aircraft carrier a complete embarrassment among other navies?
Aircraft Carriers are possibly the most accurate indication of a country's military capability at sea. They are both awe-inspiring and terrifying, making them ideal not just for projecting strength but also for serving as a symbol for an entire fleet. With so many advantages, what makes a nation like Russia, whose army relies heavily on displays of power, only possess one? When compared to the ultra sophisticated Ford class carriers that the US is putting out to sea, the Admiral Kuznetsov, Russia's sole carrier, looks more like a heaping pile of old Soviet period hardware. So, why is Russia not producing new aircraft carriers?

Yes, Congress Really is a Bunch of Old, Rich, White, Christian, Hetero, Misaligned Men
» KEY POINTS Congress does not reflect the American people in the most fundamental and even superficial ways. Political alignment, gender/sexuality, race, religion, age, earnings, net worth, and education of Congresspeople do not even come close to the electorate. There is no amount of law, policy, redistricting, quota filling, or any other method that can change the current situation.

Winner Takes All is a Losers System
» KEY POINTS An elected official in the House of Representatives or the Senate cannot cover the will of all their constituents. Their only concern is getting just enough votes to beat their opponents, not actually being the voice of many different people in Congress.
