Been trying to tell people for decades that collectively we have much more power than the 1% and they are scared to death of us.

I belong to a program of recovery, where political beliefs, religious beliefs, and prejudices are left at the door. In the rooms, we are unified. We are apart of and have purpose. We’ve learned to love unconditionally, to forgive others and ourselves, and to be kind. We try to do the next right thing, live in the moment, pause so we can respond instead of react. We become useful by helping others, and in return help ourselves, with all motives aside. It is a way of life and a design for living, that works under all circumstances and all conditions, and it saved my life more than 10 years ago.

I watched an Attenborough documentary with seals being hunted by a great white shark. The shark is huge, flexible, and fast, and picks isolated seals at will, until,......all seals unite, circle him, and though he faces no physical danger, he gets so nervous by the sheer numbers, that he gets driven away with his tail under his fins, out in the open ocean. It was glorious, I jumped up clapping. If seals can figure it out, so can we. Seal power! ✊✌️

You can watch the same thing in the sky when sparrows harrow a hawk.

If the system we create is a reflection of the cooperative willingness we each can express, such a system will have a natural fit for the both the Individual and the Groups that are formed by the Individuals who Voluntarily come together.

What inspires people to come together? I think our Cultural Stories help create a mental landscape of harmony and a desire to see Unity in the things we choose to do.

A great example of this in ancient times is the ancient myths that show Love having the power to overcome Death; this is seen in the Story of Osiris and Isis of Ancient Egypt, also this is seen in the Story of Savitri and Satyavan of ancient Vedic India. There are of course other stories like them.

One thing we need to have in our present age of Tech is a Unifying Story, something that connects to everyone no matter where we are from, that inspires us all to see a strong purpose in Unity. With that Unity as a guiding principle, which works from the bottom up; from the local to the non-local and not Top Down.

If you gain unity then you must follow a leader who is easily corruptible.

The Republic / Representative Democracy, has failed.

We say it has failed because it does not “promote the general welfare, and provide for the common defense” in ways in which we are in agreement.

And because nothing is more important than our national sovereignty, nor is anything so dear to our sacred posterity, we simply must adjust the mechanism of our government or finish the slide into disintegration.

The ball is in our court; since the authority for government comes from The Citizens.

So… how do we get there from here?

We now have to stand up and inform our representatives that they have broken their Oaths and failed in their Duty to the office in which they were entrusted. They are in Breach, and now must either accept our help by adding the Fourth Branch, The Citizens Branch, The Electronic Townhall to our government or Vacate the building.

Because Citizenship, true Citizenship, is not about writing letters to elected officials or voting some good person into office.

Citizenship is about the Ratification or Annulment of each line of every law, rule, regulation and supreme court decision on the books or that is on the docket waiting to be turned into law, policy and taxes.
