Are you confused as to where this is going or just curious? I've tried to explain some of my thought process before I rolled it into what I called The Problem. I am hoping that some of you were nodding your head instead of shaking it as you read these past 10 posts.
I am analytical. I study what I see and try to improve it in my work. I listened for the last few months of the rhetoric from The Two Sides as to what is wrong with the country and knew they didn't find the cure, they only managed to cover up the symptoms.
What?
I have used homeopathic doctors for myself and my family in the past and still believe in natural cures for much of what ails us. Apple a day kinda thing.
Sit down cuz this will be a shocker for ya. Drug therapy is a theory. And it is not a perfect theory. There are benefits but components are missing otherwise there would be that magic pill that makes you thin, cures cancer, and all the blah, blah, blah. Religious? God put it on the Earth for a reason. Non-believer? We are all connected and everything interacts.
What the .... does this have to do with the country and politics!?! Its the cure we are after not covering up what's wrong, not kicking the can. I needed you to understand that last bit before I went on. We good? Awesome. What is the cure?
VOTE SMART
When the nation was in its infancy, men chose to try to make a difference and SERVED, unpaid. They were elected to this crazy new form of government and knew they had to do their part for representation of their neighbors. Some probably served reluctantly but did so because it was needed. When their term or terms finished or possibly when the bank account ran low, they went back to their day job. The built in breaks were so they could tend the fields, mind the store, or whatever it was they did back then. It was not their source of income.
Anyone who has read the factual early history of the US knows that GW didn't want to be king. And Congress realized 170 or so years later with FDR, that they didn't want a king either and the 22nd Amendment(2 term limit) became part of the constitution of the United States.
That is so cool! The boss can stay for 8 years and he is out but me? If my name was Strom Thurman, I barely missed the chance to be involved with this amendment, vote into office in 1956 and took a paycheck til 2003. Okay, that's not true. Got paid til I died but stopped running for election in '03. More factual.
He is not alone in longevity of SERVICE for the country. Leadership is what the media calls it.
Think about this, they limited the president to 2 terms but once they got the taste of being the ruling class, they wouldn't or won't consider the same for themselves. Absolute power.
The cure, Andy! Stay focused.
It's simple. And a little complicated. Maybe not so complicated but many things have to happen in order for my crazy idea to work.
Enough already! Tell us and we can work out the details next time!
VOTE SMART
They won't give themselves term limits and we aren't represented by them anymore. So until we can get term limits into place for all elected officials, we come together as the angry mob that we will be after this next midterm and with a social contract with each other, we take our country back...
By voting out everyone who has been in office for more than 2 terms. Everyone.
The implementation will be discussed next time. Its gonna take a lot of work.
