Considering the restraints of 1776, a republic was an astounding step forward, but given the technological achievements which have been used to empower the common man since, for the first time in history, we have the capacity to attempt an actual working democracy and not be so reliant upon mis-representatives. However, it may not necessarily be done by changing it from the top down, but from the bottom up. Should we direct our energies toward the changes that we can make locally first, investing in renewable power, a more plentiful food-shed, and a more resilient local economy, we have a much greater chance of creating a community of abundance than if we use our energy to feed the gluttonous appetite of imperial power. writeinstevemcallister/2014/07/challenge-mis-representative-democracy/
