Salbuchi - Second Republic Project - Pillar 4 - REINVIGORATE REPUBLICAN INSTITUTIONS

Hello, Adrian Salbuchi once again.
This is the fourth pillar, the fourth video in the Second Republic Project.
I called it Reinvigorating Republican Institutions.
If the first step is to recover the Nation-State, restore the Nation-State,
and the second pillar is to recover Sovereign Currency,
and the third pillar is to reject the Debt-based Economy,
then the fourth pillar is to recover, reinvigorate Republican institutions.
If politics is no longer depending on money power
then we are half way to our goal.
This means that citizens will be able to access government posts
not surfing on huge waves of money
but by showing what they know how to do,
debating their ideas,
being good people and that's what we need in government.
It means wrenching the monopoly over political power from the political parties,
the social organizations - political parties - that are most dependent on money power.
It means that political representation can be channelled
via a myriad of legitimate intermediate social organizations.
Not just the political parties.
Why not the teachers' unions,
the engineers', the lawyers', the students', the artists', the technicians' associations?
Why not neighborhood councils?
Why not leages of housewives?
Why not veterans' associations,
small business associations, trade unions, religious organizations?
I'm sure the Housewife Union or the Housewife Leage would have a better candidate
who would have better first-hand knowledge about the economy
then many other US Republicans or Democrats.
I know that the Forest and Conservation workers
will no doubt know much more about the environment than a Labour party leader.
The teachers' union will know much more about the educational crises,
how to solve it,
than some stupid government official in Washington.
We need to bring back our political intstitutions to health, to use common sense.
How can we expect to have a truly independent judiciary, for example,
if we have a Nation-State that is a colony, that is colonial
that is usurped by other interests.
How can we have Congress that works
if lobbysts are allowed to slush money around
promoting the interests of banks, oil companies, drug companies,
war-mongering defense contractors,
Israel or abortion right activists,
all of which have one thing in common:
they are against the rights of the common working man and woman,
they are against the common citizen.
Depending on the country you live in
this entails having a new Constitution, as in Argentina,
or a new Bill of Rights, or a new Declaration of Independence
as in most every country in the world.
In all cases it requires founding a Second Republic
that is sovereign and freed from the chains of our present colonial republics
subservient to the global money power elite.
This is a revolutionary act.
This is a declaration of being free.
This is a statement of wanting to be free and living in dignity.
