I ran into this
independent thinker and doer on Colbert tonight called Carne Ross, a transplanted
Brit that got caught up in America’s energy flow.
Without going into too
many details and the little bit of research I have done some reading. His ideas, based on Occupy among others, flows of thought energy that favors
leaderless democracy. And surely with the internet participation in town halls
and decision making on a micro local level is possible right now.
It is like it has taken
democracy something like two hundred years to come to the impasse and the
realization that central control, central king like decision making is not
needed in perhaps 80% of the things and needs of everyday people.
They want to do away
with the post office when the P.O. is the ideal place to become the focal point
of local and federal government, not as a stand in line, hand me something
center, but a place where paper tax forms could still be had both for state and
national government.
The Post Office from the very beginning was designed to be the glue of our republic and keeping the paths of communication open in a vast land mass.
That the Post Office
like in some European governments could be the center of micro-banking to
offset the behemoth monster banks and brokerage houses that feed on the blood
of the masses these days.
And the P.O. could serve
as an information center of computerized government for other needs.
This flows along with my
idea that we must return to local control of creating and servicing mortgages
on Main Street and ignore the capitalist vampire mantra that all good comes
from mega capital.
There are creative
people and ideas left in this dying old world.
A new world of ideas and accomplishments are yet to be discovered.
