RE: United States: The Next Generation

Thank you for your comment. For a few years I focused on destroying the system, thinking it was worthless and tainted by evil intent, and easier to be done away with completely. eventually i come to realize that doing away with a century of congressional legislature, and infrastructure, would be counter productive to an extent. Its often easier to scrap a project and start fresh, rather than take a broken project and make it function properly, at the expense of time and resources. knowing this fact, and thinking of the US a large project, the building of which took place over hundreds of years, it wont be so quick and easy to build replace.
The first step in doing away with any corruption of any project, is to first isolate out, then do away with the corrupted pieces, and replace them with functioning parts. this is imperative for us to do as a nation, we must oust those who hold the interest of the rich and powerful in their hearts over the People, and our liberty. The more we awake, the more at risk these "bad actors" are of being replaced in office, or as head of some corporation, or secret agency. This is a long ongoing process, that will take continued vigilance.
we have to regain the vigilance that our ancestors held towards their government. we must adopt the mentality of the Boston Tea Party members who were at an uproar over a 0.5% tax increase. today we fork over roughly 60% of our total income to taxes, and fees, etc etc.
from there we must take a position that backs our foundational values of liberty, and morality, and base our societal goals on principles of personal privacy and freedoms, knowledge and technological advancement.
I have shifted from trying to get rid of government, to trying to overthrow the active corruption we see within it.
a government cannot be good or evil, it is nothing more or less than what its people are. we have allowed a disconnect to form between us and our system, where it is considered sovereign above us, rather than beside us. a nation state can only be sovereign because its people are.
My greatest concern actually tends to be the lack of understanding, that the United States is nothing more than a compact, similar to the United Nations. It is nothing more than agreement reached by the 50 nations together, to live by certain values collectively. People actually believe they are American, when truly they are simply citizens of their State. the citizenship given to them at their birth to the United States is "voluntary" and "implied" by acquiescence, but in no way physically related to being in the united states republic.

There truly is a great divide of information, that which is given to the public willingly, having been twisted to fit some sort of narrative, and that information that one takes it upon himself to be educated in.. searching for answers that have been hidden purposefully within the letter of the laws, and the actions of those who enforce them.
