Juristical Democracy
Ebook (EPUB Format)
At this point in the history of the West it is becoming increasingly obvious that democracy has become a bit of a sham. It's main justification for existing, that government reflects the will of the majority of the people, is not borne out in reality, for as poll after poll and survey after survey show, there is an often great gulf between what the majority of the people want and what the people are in fact getting.

At this point in the history of the West it is becoming increasingly obvious that democracy has become a bit of a sham. It's main justification for existing, that government reflects the will of the majority of the people, is not borne out in reality, for as poll after poll and survey after survey show, there is an often great gulf between what the majority of the people want and what the people are in fact getting. After over two hundred years of practice too many interested parties have become far too skilled at bypassing the will of the majority and imposing their own vision on an often disagreeable populace who feel powerless to stop this process even when it is obvious to them. The present political landscape is a clown-car kabuki show of bad actors, con-men and a conflicting mass of interest groups trying to bribe or intimidate politicians into doing their bidding. The media has betrayed its historical mission of informing the public and has, with very few exceptions, thrown its lot in with the left-wing statists and corporate globalists. Our political class, indeed our elites in general, seem to increasingly be taking an openly hostile stance against their fellow citizens, actively seeming to favor citizens of other countries over the citizens of their own countries who have put them into office. They seem to take a perverse pride in coddling active enemies of their own countries and spitting in the faces of the people who have elected them. The media has become a threat to the very process of democracy itself, indulging in the with-holding of information that they have decided the people should not see. Our representatives cannot be trusted to do what they say and representative democracy selects for the greedy and power hungry. Juristical Democracy is designed to cut through all of these layers of obfuscation and bad-faith actors and return the decision making apparatus to ordinary people. It would bring the decision making processes out of the corporate boardrooms and the smoke-filled rooms of party-based politics down to the street level which is where the spirit of a proper democracy should live.
