Saving
America: The Necessary Steps To Reclaim Our Republic/Democracy
"We the people" Need to Insist Upon Restoring the Vision of
Our Forefathers, Before it's too Late
NewsFocus, Op-Ed, by Tim Watts -
122609Many people in the US have been screaming
to the rafters over everything that is wrong with the US since
9/11. Many have also proposed their ideas on how to right the
ship back to semi-normalcy as quickly as possible. Not all agree
on the quickest path to full normalcy, but most everyone
undeniably yearns for it.
Despite the fact that George W. Bush failed as a leader and
gutlessly said that "there will be no going back to the era
before 9/11," we the people offer a single-digit salute of
disapproval as well as an obligatory yet well deserved F-bomb in
protest and disgust
- Election Reform -
Get rid of Political Action Committees (PACs)
and corporate donations. Reform HAVA and rescind the Citizens
Untied Act.
- Media Reform
Break up media monopolies and encourage diversity of news and
opinion. Re-take PBS, C-Span and NPR.
- Take over the Federal Reserve
Return power to print
money to U.S. Treasury and U.S. Government. Print "interest
free" money, like the Greenbacks or colonial script.
- Balance the Courts
We should not lean left or right, but strike a
fair balance in our courts. Partisanship has no place in the
judiciary.
- Tax Reform
Make the rich pay their share accordingly, as we do, with no
more loopholes. Stop all illegal taxation of income.
- PATRIOT Act Reform
Re-establish the Constitution & Bill of Rights for "We the
People." Also, rescind the Military Commissions Act, NDRP, and
AUMF.
This is but simply touching the tip of the iceberg. We have
many draconian laws on the books since the death of President
Kennedy. Much needs to be undone before we can regain what was
deliberately stolen from us.
If we don't act soon, it
may be too late to reclaim the country we once knew. Those that
have all the power are counting on you to be complacent,
unmotivated and ignorant.
