Idea #US76 - We The People Branch of Government

Create a new branch of government that includes we the people and give them a competing currency for participation.

 

Argument
Think Local First

I think it's obvious that the ruling class won't let this happen on a national level any time soon, but we could do it on a local level by running our people for positions of public office, like county boards and city boards, as well as mayors etc.

Free State Project members in New Hampshire are having success getting elected as state reps and others get elected as selectmen etc on the local level. And some are trying to start "Free Towns", which I'm also promoting.
