All those citizens who complain that their vote doesn't count have a
point but the problem isn't vote tabulation. The problem is that our votes
are ineffective because we are not voting directly on
issues, we just vote for those who do. So let's change the system. Let
congress continue proposing bills but let the people vote directly on
which ones to adopt. Instead of fighting each other lets cooperate and
remove the teeth of our real enemy, the huge controlling maw of the power
hungry government bureaucracy, which is devouring our money and our
individual freedoms at a prodigious rate. Stop your negative thinking; do
not assume that changing the status quo will result in our current
conditions worsening. Is it so unreasonable to think that by placing
control directly into the hands of American citizens it might actually
improve our lives and our country's condition? Wow, what a concept! Is
your comfort zone so precious that you are willing to preserve it at the
expense of your individual freedoms? What is second best to freedom that
makes giving up your constitutional rights worthwhile to achieve it?
Redundency
We have at our disposal the means to create change that was not available
when our government was formed but the attitude of the average American
citizen still remains in the past. Modern technology has made our present
representative system redundant and gives us the means to directly control
America's destiny at the national and even state level. Unfortunately,
millions of American citizens would rather remain dependent on an archaic
system and under the control of bureaucratic politicians rather than
invest in a modern system to change the governmental bureaucracy that
controls us. So why don't we use modern technology to cast our votes on
important national issues and return the power to the people by
eliminating the career politician middlemen? The only thing that prevents
modernization is the will of the people. Just because the technology that
we have today was not available when our governmental system was created
doesn't mean that we can't use it now to give us direct control of our
destiny. It is time to take control of our government and our future and
it would probably cost the same as a trip to Mars. It is time to throw off
the constraining shackles of governmental control or is being a slave of
corporate America and the past much more appealing?
So, what's it going to be America, more government
control disguised as a "feel good" trip to Mars or power to the people?
