What a great book you have written @adamkokesh!
- And this another great chapter...
I think a much needed byproduct of localization
is competition for citizens among the now more powerful local governments.
- In America, I think power could be given back to the states by repealing the 17th amendment.
- This would allow the states to once again install only those Senators who would be forced to fight for state rights and stand up for the 9th & 10th amendments.
- With less central power usurped by the Feral Government...
- (NOTE: that was not a mistype... I coined the term March 6th, 2017 as proven by this post.
I encourage one and all to start using this, the proper term, for our Central government!) - ... competition would return to the many States as they try to earn an influx of citizens from those states who do not govern for the people.
- If we were successful in creating this environment, we might even end up with FREE Internet for everyone!
- The states with the best ideas (less restrictions, less taxes) on their citizens, would be where people want to live.
- Those states that would win such competitions would likely be the ones who instituted even more localization.
- Those states who chose not to meddle in the local affairs of their citizens. A prime example would be no central funding for education. Letting local school boards make the decisions of how to best educate the local population.
- Most states have counties. If the counties were given back their power, which has been usurped by first State and then Feral governments, then they would be in competition with neighboring counties.
- Which should result in less taxes and less meddling in the affairs of the local citizens.
- This would allow the states to once again install only those Senators who would be forced to fight for state rights and stand up for the 9th & 10th amendments.
- It would be a win-win for everyone.
- And it all starts by forcing the decentralization of government.
- As you so eloquently explained with your post...
- And it all starts by forcing the decentralization of government.
