The Civilized Web

Nearly a quarter a millennium ago a new nation was created, conceived in Liberty. The idea was that the government would be of the people, by the people, and for the people. The founders went about implementing those ideas as best they could, with the tools they had at the time.

Now, suppose certain evils become insufferable, and a nation finds itself in such a way today. How do you go about organizing a government that best represents the people?

Today our means of communication and interaction are vastly more powerful than before. The internet provides the medium for a true government of people. Just add culture.

Perturbed: Song to the Internet

When in the Course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation. My country tis of the, sweet land of Liberty!
