if the citizens of a democracy were doing their due diligence
within the firm understanding that they are their government,
there would be no separate entity “government” to oppose.
There would be people working out what they need and how
to make the world they want to live in. There would be power
hungry narcissists, but they would be easily shouted down by
the people who understand the politics of power and the
difference between power over others and power to achieve
our common goals.
