During the 1992 USA Presidential campaign, Ross Perot observed that: "a general lack of accountability among elected officials and those in the bureaucracy is the one specific reason that the people of America suffered…. and our only means of correction is to inspect their work and hold them accountable.”
Mr. Perot went on to note that this can easily be done with computer programs.
He called it: THE ELECTRONIC TOWNHALL.
“It is only logical that it will become our Fourth Branch of Government”, he said.
Objective reality:
the voting members of the US Congress and the State Legislatures do not have enough time to read, comprehend or debate any of the laws they vote on. They vote 100 times a day, every five minutes, while in session.
Approximate absolute facts:
Every day that the Congress and Legislatures are in session 100 new bills are introduced and distributed.
The representatives are given two weeks to review the bills before they are brought up for The Vote.
Two weeks into the session they begin voting on the Laws that were previously introduced, while newer laws are introduced.
Many of these bills are in excess of two thousand pages.
The arithmetic demonstrates that the elected representative does not have the time to even read the name of the Law much less the content of it.
Since the Representatives cannot evaluate 200 thousand pages of law speak per day, they vote the way their Party advisors tell them to vote.
This demonstrates that Representative government does not exist.
Thus, they have forfeited their delegated obligations to us, The Citizens. And the only way to prevent these over worked and fallible people from making even more tragic mistakes, from which we, and the rest of the world, might never recover is to include ourselves in the final decision-making process.
The Electronic Congress
How it works:
Before a new law, tax, or expenditure can be put on the books it must first be Ratified by the Citizens.
Existing laws can be Annulled by the same super majority required to Ratify them.
This program can be applied to every level of government and will ultimately solve every problem we have.
To prevent chaos, the basic law, our Constitution and Bill of Rights, would be exempt from review.
Mr. Perot speculated that the Founding Fathers would probably have done the same had the technology been available in their day.
Just imagine:
With a new understanding we will also be able to accommodate new proposals initiated by us, The Citizens, for program and infrastructure improvements.
We, The People, could actually direct the priorities and review the progress of the major agencies like the: CDC and NIH as well as the libraries, school boards and local police departments.
If our government truly is of the people, by the people and for the people then this is the only way forward.
How to implement it:
Start here:
Dear Mr. / Madam School Board Trustee
I write to you today in a sincere effort to help you accomplish your noble reasons for seeking this office.
That is to help you facilitate the betterment of our schools for our children and young people.
To do this, I ask you to make the Board meeting agenda questions and the data points behind them available to me as well as all of the other taxpayers.
Upload the stack to a server where we can read, ratify and or annul the elements after log on.
In a perfect world each paragraph must have at least three possible answers: agree, disagree, no opinion at this time.
Direct democracy is a growing trend, and many companies offer these services:
hosting, voter receipts, and a running tally of totals for everyone to see.
In this way Madam Trustee you are assured that you will always have the strength of the community with you when making the decisions that really do effect the lives of our people.
Concerned Citizens could have AI parse a recent law or Supreme Court ruling into its actionable elements, apply the Ratify or Annul Questionnaire, then distribute the links.
Can I make money with this?
Of course, you can. Use AI to parse the laws you find most egregious into their component pieces. And then have it build the ballot / questionnaire along with some demographic background to make the game especially interesting. Charge a $1 per voter per law to deliver the results of the poll to the government officials and watch the evolution in real time.
The Electronic Townhall becomes the means by which the Authority of the Citizens is used to Ratify or Annul the Propositions of Government.
Ask the local school board for their agenda items, have AI parse the actionable elements, create a questionnaire, distribute it to the concerned citizens and then evaluate the results.
When Human Beings made in the image of God can see the results of their noblest and most sober thoughts, at such a scale, then there will be the moment where Our Benevolence and Good Will shall
overcome Evil and then we can all live happily ever after.
Ross Perot publicly promised that if the People of America would elect him to The Presidency, he would give us The Electronic Townhall.
The Fourth Branch of Government will allow us to go from Chaos to Prosperity and a Life Worth Living … until the end of time.
We were created by God and in the image of God; we are human beings, not animals in a pen.
Corrupt systems need dismantling or blowing up. There is no fix. If new systems evolve like the old, then you can expect similar corruption to infest them.
This is not true. (rarely it is the only option). We have repaired many many broken systems. A simple example is if your computer is corrupted, we can clean it up. Burning it down causes more suffering and therefore is not the best answer.
Credit Tolkien or LotR scriptwriters with this self-evident fact: "The hearts of men are easily corrupted.” All systems built or managed by corrupt people are corruptible. Remove corrupt people, galvanize human hearts against corruption, and good systems will follow, but we must vigilantly and perpetually guard ourselves and our systems from corruption. Good people and truly Godly people have always been our best bet.
At this point, I'm either waiting on a miracle or for humanity to mercifully kill itself off; so, obviously it wasn't so much about morality as it was genetics; not that genetics can't be overcome, but then that monkey is always on one's back, especially with a history of an unfortunate childhood, that exponentially, weights the scale towards psychopathic behaviors.
The whole thing about COVID-19 in this respect is interesting because those vaccines weren't
nRNAs, meaning that they caused genetic changes that doubtless will show up in genetic code during one's reproduction.
So, what would be the likelihood of another virus going ape shit on humanity that would then rewrite or over write the psychopath gene?
Then, at least at birth, we'd all be at least sort of in a way equal in opportunities, but, not really of course, because of the external environment, that's in large part due to the imposition of other's value systems that tend to intentionally interfere with healthy human development.
As though that day would ever occur, and it would be immoral to do so, because it would interfere with an individual's genetically ordained freewill; but then aren't all of humanity's afflictions like Small Pox, Botulism, Poliomyelitis, etcetera also preordained as well? Yet, if not out of mercy for others, then for our own well-being, we cure them?
Gates et al, they all want to be as God's; or at least Gates has said as much; but, I think that a cure may already exist.
ISRIB (trans-isomer), it has already been used to reverse dementia, the treatment of Down Syndrome (which also has a violence component to it, has gone through human testing and is FDA approved for some uses, but it's not yet in the form of a harmless viral infection. All of that, would of course be totally inappropriate and immortal, but, if as humans it isn't done humanity will go extinct.
Matt, did you ever read about the Seventh Day Adventists? Well, according that Scripture, an alien beyond this world instructed a certain human to write it all down; what's the point? Coincidence? Or divine intervention that I just think to look up certain, seemingly u interconnected subjects as needed? Because, obviously, unless I was hallucinating, even at age three, Godot spoke to me about "my" son, not his mother's brother; so, if I'm not hallucinating about that, and what he spoke of, then there is a chance of stopping our impending extinction.
Like everything else in my life, this idea will also go nowhere, but so be it if that in fact is the case
Whoa dude! All of that is great and fine, but has little to do with solving the issue at hand. I thought this was the “what are we going to do about our corrupt government” track. You veered of course a bit

Seed of an excellent petition to local pols. If we take control at the bottom, maybe we can yet neutralize this top-down system.
