Google for your local, state, and federal law. Your continued presence in the jurisdiction indicates your acceptance of the implicit contract defined by these laws.

If it doesn’t vibe with your beliefs (which is fair!), there are other jurisdictions available for consideration, a visa and plane ticket away.

The laws are not the contract. I already moved where I did because I liked the laws. But the damned things keep changing because of this social contract. If the laws were the social contract, your parent comment wouldn't make sense either. Not liking the laws is one thing. Justifying new ones because of this pretend contract is another.

I’m not sure what to say if you’re not happy that democracy isn’t static. The only thing in the world that is constant is change.

You call it “pretend”, but the results you take issue with appear to be very real.

That's one of my complaints about democracy. Something doesn't have to be real for people to vote like it's real. There's no contract that says anybody owes anyone anything else at a specific price.
