Book excerpt: Andy Cohan, a computer geek fresh out of college, lands a job as a virtual reality programmer at United States Satellite Television, America’s largest HDTV provider. Learning that USS-TV will provide a massive bonus to any employee who comes up with a new blockbuster reality television show and wanting to impress the co-worker who’s won his heart, Andy creates the reality series “By the People.” “By the People” is catapulted to success with Andy’s Video Ion Refractor (VIR), a device that intercepts video ion radiation from HDTV, uses it to identify the viewer, and sends the information back to USS-TV’s master computer. The VIR then identifies whether the viewer is a registered voter. Unlike the Internet, VIR information cannot be hacked, which means people can safely, securely, and conveniently vote in political elections through their TV set. Beyond the show, the implications for Andy’s technology are mind-boggling. VIR could empower ordinary American citizens to take the government away from the politicians and turn it back over to the people who can keep a watchful eye on the state of the nation and vote, right on the spot, about what they want done. What begins as one young man’s simple attempt to snag a bonus and get the girl could end in Andy gaining the potentially unenviable power to control the destiny of the entire world.

Book Government BY the People

Download or read book Government BY the People written by Steven M. Henninger and published by Eiram Publishing. This book was released on 2015-11-11 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The United States of America is failing. We, the people see the devastation coming and fear for the future of our children, our county, and the world. Yet, hope exists. The hope for the future of the United States rests not in the hands of the corrupt politicians manipulating and ruling from Washington but in the hearts, hands, and strength of the courageous citizens of the United States of America. We, the people of the United States are known for our strength of character, courage in the face of adversity, and unshakable belief in fighting for what is right. More than two hundred years ago, our ancestors united to fight for Independence from a government that taxed without representation and ruled based on the desires of a powerful few. By fighting on the side of right our ancestors won independence and freedom for each one of us. Through bravery, determination and a steadfast belief in equality, freedom, and justice we, the people of the United States of America can win the war that has been thrust upon us by the corrupt, the power-hungry, and the unjust. United, we can break the back of the political elite, dismantle the oppressive machine that has become our government, and return our great country to a system of government that operates only at the will of the people and defends equality, freedom and justice for all. Each patriotic American citizen must seek out the few honest politicians left in Washington, the unbiased media personalities hidden among the propaganda pushers, and our fellow citizens who embody the American spirit and fight for the change that we know must happen. We must make our voices heard all the way to Washington. We, the people of the United States of America, in order to return to a more perfect Union, restore justice, and reinstate a government by the people and for the people must demand the corruption in Washington stop today.

  • Author : Thomas Goebel
  • Publisher : Univ of North Carolina Press
  • Release : 2003-04-03
  • ISBN : 0807860182
  • Pages : 324 pages

Download or read book A Government by the People written by Thomas Goebel and published by Univ of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 2003-04-03 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between 1898 and 1918, many American states introduced the initiative, referendum, and recall--known collectively as direct democracy. Most interpreters have seen the motives for these reform measures as purely political, but Thomas Goebel demonstrates that the call for direct democracy was deeply rooted in antimonopoly sentiment. Frustrated with the governmental corruption and favoritism that facilitated the rise of monopolies, advocates of direct democracy aimed to check the influence of legislative bodies and directly empower the people to pass laws and abolish trusts. But direct democracy failed to achieve its promises: corporations and trusts continued to flourish, voter turnout rates did not increase, and interest groups grew stronger. By the 1930s, it was clear that direct democracy favored large organizations with the financial and organizational resources to fund increasingly expensive campaigns. Recent years have witnessed a resurgence of direct democracy, particularly in California, where ballot questions and propositions have addressed such volatile issues as gay rights and affirmative action. In this context, Goebel's analysis of direct democracy's history, evolution, and ultimate unsuitability as a grassroots tool is particularly timely.

Book By the People

    Book Details:
  • Author : Charles Murray
  • Publisher : Crown Forum
  • Release : 2016-08-02
  • ISBN : 0385346530
  • Pages : 338 pages

Download or read book By the People written by Charles Murray and published by Crown Forum. This book was released on 2016-08-02 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The American way of life, built on individual liberty and limited government, is on life support. American freedom is being gutted. Whether we are trying to run a business, practice a vocation, raise our families, cooperate with our neighbors, or follow our religious beliefs, we run afoul of the government—not because we are doing anything wrong but because the government has decided it knows better. When we object, that government can and does tell us, “Try to fight this, and we’ll ruin you.” In this provocative book, acclaimed social scientist and bestselling author Charles Murray shows us why we can no longer hope to roll back the power of the federal government through the normal political process. The Constitution is broken in ways that cannot be fixed even by a sympathetic Supreme Court. Our legal system is increasingly lawless, unmoored from traditional ideas of “the rule of law.” The legislative process has become systemically corrupt no matter which party is in control. But there’s good news beyond the Beltway. Technology is siphoning power from sclerotic government agencies and putting it in the hands of individuals and communities. The rediversification of American culture is making local freedom attractive to liberals as well as conservatives. People across the political spectrum are increasingly alienated from a regulatory state that nakedly serves its own interests rather than those of ordinary Americans. The even better news is that federal government has a fatal weakness: It can get away with its thousands of laws and regulations only if the overwhelming majority of Americans voluntarily comply with them. Murray describes how civil disobedience backstopped by legal defense funds can make large portions of the 180,000-page Federal Code of Regulations unenforceable, through a targeted program that identifies regulations that arbitrarily and capriciously tell us what to do. Americans have it within their power to make the federal government an insurable hazard like hurricanes and floods, leaving us once again free to live our lives as we see fit. By the People’s hopeful message is that rebuilding our traditional freedoms does not require electing a right-thinking Congress or president, nor does it require five right-thinking justices on the Supreme Court. It can be done by we the people, using America’s unique civil society to put government back in its proper box.
