With all the regime change going on in the world, as well as the potential economic default scenarios that actually endanger our government and way of life, perhaps it's time to ask ourselves what a better government should look like. After all, our Founding Fathers told us that it is a natural right of man to alter or abolish their government as they see fit if it becomes destructive of their rights.
No one can argue that that hasn't occurred in America.
And the circumstances may be upon us that will take care of the problem automatically rather than any uprising. An economist was asked something to the effect of when we might regain our freedom. His answer was, "When checks from Washington no longer buy anything." That day may be right around the corner, and when it arrives, it might not take much prompting to convince most Americans that something different has to be done.
So this is my question: If the current government collapses under the weight of its own hubris, greed, incompetence, and lust for power, what should a new government look like? Should we continue with our current model of executive, legislative, and judicial branches? Would a parliamentary system work better, like in the UK where they elect ministers and one of them is elected the Prime Minister, subject to confidence votes? What changes would be needed to ensure our legislative branch isn't for sale to special interests? What type of constitution would guarantee our rights better than our current one? What should our criminal justice system look like?
Please add more questions and answers.
