A 3%’er I am not. I am, however, an old fashioned American who has served his country and community. I have been involved in local, state and national politics most of my adult life.

While our founders invisioned and penned a document creating a government of the people, by the people, for the people; our political parties, and thus our government , has morphed into something else.

Our ” representatives ” have adopted an attitude of elitism. Despite the peoples wishes or intent, they have grown to think they are our ” leaders ” and know better than we what is best.

They sell their souls, votes and country to the highest bidder. They seek monetary support from outside our own country and when it is recieved, they suddenly represent the donor and not the ” people” of America.

Yes, our founders intended a government comprised of the people. They invisioned a centralized government that was weaker than the monarchy they had struggled to seperate from. They intended the vote to be the tool for change just as they intended for their to be checks and balances within that government. They also knew a goverment could and would run amok if the people we denied the ability to overthrow such a government by force if necessary.

Today, our elected elite is not responsive to the American people but to the foreign interests they have courted for monetary gain, negating the intended power of the citizens. Let’s be honest with one another.

A self-employed person struggles under a combined 43% tax rate at the federal level. That does NOT include state or local. These are imposed taxes. They were and are seldom approved by the people. They are forced upon them.

The ” state” has taken the position the people work for it and our job is to strengthen the state. The ” state” says it owns us and our property. Disagree ? Ok, dont pay your property tax for a period of time and see for yourself who ” owns” your property.

We all search for an answer to our delima. Is it insurrection ? Is it a move to a third political movement ? I do not have the answer. I do know, however, we the people has been replaced and the America fought for has, over the past 50 years, been replaced by elitist rule and they have no common interest in ” American ” values or ideas as described by those who founded it. They have only their own self interest without regard for the country or the underpinnings it was established on.

many of our states are posturing , without any true intent, by decalring the sovereigncy. The individuals only declaration of the same is attained thru the abilty to force government to be what it was intended. In a corrput system, morphed by greed and influenced by foreign entities, that abilty will only lie thru armed resistance.

You have confused my blog with the public square, the only “proclamations” I post are my own. There are a number of places you can start a blog for free and post any irrelevant thing you want there.
