The Declaration of RE-Independence

[Prospectus: The Individual vs. The Corporate Conscience]

While the term “individual”, as regards each of us, has “gone to seed” in the human race, the ethics of the corporate has gone to hell.

We humans have lost sight of our own horizon. While a nation of participants (“We the People” turned into a loose collection of spectators, the business of America morphed into a monster of business).

Instead of “In God We Trust”, on our money, money is now the god we trust [the love of $money$ having replaced real love]. While the stock market crash of 1929 was catalyzed by over-extended margins, the morality crash of our recent business climate is the result of under-extended ethics.

It is now left to us citizens, “We the People”, to prevent our Titanic ending and reverse this trend, where the Fates have become the Furies, the Muses became the Harpies, and the Sages have become the fools!

...Let us change our form of government overnight to the better, to something that works, as outlined in our primary legal document, The Declaration of Independence**; and except for vital and emergency services, put the current forms of government “on hold” until our ship of state is repaired and functioning for everyone’s best interest, with equal opportunity for ALL, in the most powerful yet anemic country on earth; no longer FantasyLandUSA, but the land of the brave and free again!

[The mechanism by which we change our form of government is about the only unused portion of our original, founding documents, and it’s time to see it put to good use] .....We will go back to the future we were detoured from years ago when people sought after $money$ instead of love, and business/sports/entertainment instead of family. We must not again mistake our tools and their methods for the life in our lives!

“Without a sign his sword the brave man draws, And asks no omen but his country’s cause”. Homer

[Homer could have been just as easily speaking of someone like Cincinnatus, a 5th Century B.C. Roman {the Ohio city, Cincinnati, was named for him} who George Washington was likened to ---> even our own founding fathers would be in open revolt and rebellion against our current national government!!]

**[[Dec. of Indep., 2nd paragraph: “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men ((people)) are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator  with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.—That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed. --->>> That whenever ANY Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.”]]

I agree with this article.GW Bush has turned this country into a Nation of Cowards.To ask us to give up liberties for a false sense of security makes cowards out of us.I am referring to the Patriot Act.For us to allow our Government to violate our rights is the very definition of unpatriotic.But GW said anyone against the Patriot Act was unpartriotic.He is the only threat to MY freedom.I do nto hold GW entirely responsible.The citizens of this country are responsible for allowing their freedom to be stripped away.For allowing GW to TERRIFY them into giving up liberties.Where would we be if our forefathers had caved under the threat of danger ?Freedom is not for cowards.GW put future generations in danger of their government by making a precedent of giving the President too much power.That's so dangerous.Our forefathers would be apalled.Everything they worked for Bush has ripped apart.And he did it in the name of Patriotism.How DOES he sleep at night ?
