Chiron..could not agree more. The problem has to be boiled down to the most basic of understanding. That understanding is in the exercise of our own vote.
In many human services now, including the one that I personally work for and have for the last 30 years or so, what you find is a new language..a new standard, right down to the basic person in need ..this person is called a "consumer". Well, that's all well and good, but if the state or government is the one providing this person with the items (services) they consume, that puts the consumer in a very vulnerable position. For instance, if a salad bar were to sell only brown, slimey lettuce, that salad bar would not be in business long. Our States and Government, if all we offer for services are brown, slimey lettuce types, private industry becomes the next best thing...not because they are any better with the services, but because the government only allows brown slimely lettuce to be served....and in essence becomes the standard by which private industry has operated their own conscience. That has provided America with outsourced jobs to other nations and loss of jobs on our home fronts to provide meaningful employment all in the name of greed. There are isolated businesses who are not mega money industries that provide the alternative picture, but you get the idea.
Same goes for our systems of Democracy. We have republicans and we have democrats, and how dare "we the people" look outside the parameters of those major parties for serving us our constitution. What we need in this country is not necesarily a revolution in the form of picks, shovels, burning torches, and violence in the streets, I believe that Americans are far more civilized than that, and we have exercised our patience for many years and watched this country get shipped out piece by piece by our own elected officials to third world countries for far too long. Maybe, we should call it the CONSTITUTIONAL PARTY
The message should be very simple from this point forward, and it doesn't have to be nasty for "we the peole", it doesn't have to get ugly for "we the peple" , it doesn't have to incite violence, it doesn't have to create ill will. What it creates is a a collective conscious of the will of the people. That message is.....only candidates who abandon the major parties recieve votes....Democrats and Republicans do not recieve votes by the will of the people. That is the only peaceful message we can send to our government. We want our country back, and we start with exercising our right right to vote as a total conscience of a people.
WAMU is one slice of the pie...and "we the people" took a brutal slaying of our constitution and our protected rights as Americans... WAMU is huge on many levels beyond the SP... and it's time for change... I say peaceful revolution through the exercise of our protected rights... Nobody with protected constitutional rights should ever be subjected to greed, rape, pillage, and twisting of law that these parties engaged, and where "collateral damage" amounts to egregious violations of the constitution and despair beyond what is our own doing.
