The United States Election Process With the 2016 presidential election on its way, with two of the most polarizing candidates ever. And one who shared that if he loses then the “System is rigged”. With Congressional approval rating at 17%, politics in the U.S appears rotten. Which is what the freackanomics episode I listened to, “10 ways to make politics less rotten” was about.

On the surface, the restrictions on total character count imposed on modern means of communication like text messaging and microblogging encourage the condensation of lexical units and simplification of grammar (Lyddy et al., 2014; Danescu-Niculescu-Mizil, Gamon and Dumais, 2011).
