Fillibusters-Good or Bad?

in my opinion i think that fillibusters have become too much, i think they are used way more than they were ever intended to and ever should have been used.  Has there been some times when fillibusters have helped a situationm? I'm sure there has, but they don't anymore. Fillibusters are the legislative branch's way of not having to make a desicion.  It's no more than an excuse for them to not make a decision. Already it takes a 2/3 majority in the senate for there to be a majority and that holds the senate back from taking action as it is. Thsi idea of Fillibusters is just a detriment to our governing system, especially now that it has gone too far. i see how everyones opinoion needs to be said, but it can be said in a timely matter, not purposefully stopping ll movement.  i feel that it does hurt democracy, mainly by stopping democracy from even happening.
