Simile
The American system of separation of powers and the checks and balances is like a maze, three distinct destinations with many different obstacles. This is true because for a bill to be passed it has to go through two branches of government, the executive and the legislative. The bill can't pass until both branches of the government can pass it and if its is passed it might be repealed by the third branch, which is the judicial branch, for being unconstitutional. So the bill has to go through a labyrinth of processes before it can become a law.

I really like this! I like how you described the 3 destinations and how you said it has to go through a labyrinth of processes before it can become a law. I may be over thinking this but are you saying that it's challenging? Because many times mazes are taken as challenges and are meant to stump/confuse you. So is the law making process confusing?
