CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY DECEMBER 11, 2025
HERE IS A SOLUTION WE HAVE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR. ACCORING TO A NEW POLL BY RASMUSSEN AND THE FREE-MARKET HEARTLAND INSTITUTE, 41 PERCENT OF YOUNG VOTERS WOULD SUPPORT OUTSOURCING MOST STATE AND FEDERAL DECISIONS TO ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE. THEY BELIEVE AI COULD RUN THE GOVERNMENT MORE EFFICIENTLY. THE CURRENT BUNCH OF POLITICIANS AND BUREAUCRATS ARE DOING A POOR JOB, SO WHY NOT TRY AI? IT’S NOT A PERFECT SOLUTION, BUT IT COULD OFFER SUGGESTIONS FOR BETTER POLICIES THAT WORK AND BYPASS THE PARTISAN INFIGHTING THAT SOLVES NOTHING.
THE POLL FOUND THAT 55 PERCENT OF CONSERVATIVE RESPONDENTS AND 28 PERCENT OF LIBERALS ENDORSED AI CONTROLLING MOST POLICY DECISIONS. 40 PERCENT OF YOUNG VOTERS WOULD ALSO USE AI TO RUN THE MILITARY.
LIKE ANYTHING ELSE, TURNING SUCH DECISION-MAKING OVER TO AI COULD HAVE DOWNSIDES. THE CONSTITUTION IS OUR BEST GUIDE, BUT WHAT TO DO WHEN SO MANY COURTS AND POLITICIANS HAVE IGNORED IT?
THESE YOUNG PEOPLE ARE THE FUTURE LEADERS OF THE COUNTRY SO THEIR VIEWS SHOULD BE CONSIDERED. AT THE VERY LEAST, AI SOLUTIONS TO PROBLEMS COULD BE PRESENTED TO CONGRESS. MEMBERS OF CONGRESS WHO REFUSE TO CONSIDER AI’S PROPOSALS COULD BE SHAMED UNTIL THEY DO. I’M CAL THOMAS.
