Time For A New Government for
The United States of America
Rough Draft for a New Government Created for The People of The United States of America
Governments exist to support the rights of the people.
Governments exist only through the power of the people that they
represent. When a government fails to grant rights to the people and
removes the involvement of the people, the people have the right to
change their government in a way that will allow for their unalienable
rights to be protected.
Governments should not be overthrown for trivial reasons; as it is not typical for people to change a system that they are accustomed to.
One of the biggest problems with the U.S. Government is that it is now designed for two parties and it should be designed for three parties in order for the Government to work for all The People Equally!
For decades now these two parties have been fighting for government control and costing 'WE' The People Trillions in Tax Dollars for these two parties to continually fight for who they think is right and who is wrong and who gets control... it has been very very costly in both money and lives and it has to stop and stop now!
Send people to Washington who will amend the Constitution to allow a third party to represent We The People.
Alternate the election of President, House, and Senate every two years so we would always have experienced people in office. Make voting simple and easy by voting online with a unique ID and Password issued by the Voter Registrar. People without Internet access can go to a polling station. Non-citizens are never allowed to register to vote or receive any benefits.
Starting with the Presidency, no more one party as President and Vice President.
All three parties run for president, one becomes president and the other two become senior vice president and vice president ie... the winning party becomes president, first runner up becomes senior vice president, and the second runner up party becomes vice president. No need for the Electoral College.
No more One Party Presidencies, all Pardons, Security Issues, Firings, Wars, and true National Emergencies would now have to be approved by two of the three parties in this office!
The Senate will have 150 members, 50 Democrats, 50 Republicans and 50 Constitution Party and this will always be! One of each party from each of the 50 states. The Senior Vice President would the President of the Senate and tie-breaker.
The House of Representatives will have 150 members, 50 Democrats, 50 Republicans and 50 Constitution Party and this will always be! Three of each party from each of the 50 states. The Vice President would preside as Speaker of the House. No need for the House to elect a Speaker.
Now there is no reason to fight for control of The United States of America and the elected officials can now work taking care of our country as it was meant to be when the Constitution of The United States was created Of The People! By The People! For The People!
No permanent residence in D.C. at taxpayer expense. Congress shall be in session from January 20th to March 20th to conduct The People's Business. Representatives and Senators shall be paid per diem, then go back home. Travel expenses shall be restricted to two trips per year.
"We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America."
All official's finances should be audited at the beginning and end of their public service. If anything is found to be dishonest gain, they are required to make restitution or go to prison.
Elected officials would be paid the average wage of the people they represent. Example:
The 2017 nominal median income per capita was $31,786. The mean income per capita was $48,150. The Census Bureau reports those in the Current Population Survey, Table PINC-01. Real median household income was $61,372.
Move all federal retirement funds to Social Security. Make elected officials, and federal employees, retire on the same system as the rest of Americans.
Reduce the size of the Federal government by half. Abolish property
tax, Federal and State Income taxes and go to a flat tax of 10% on
consumer purchases collected at point of purchase (the tax preparers industry can find honest work). Retain just enough
Revenue Agents to make sure businesses remit all tax dollars to the
treasury departments. (3% to Federal, 3% to State, 2% to County, and 2%
City) If God can get by on 10% so can government.
Replace the Federal Reserve System (a privately owned loan shark operation which has never been audited) with a United States Treasury System operated by Americans for Americans. Exchange Federal Reserve Notes for U.S. Treasury Currency backed by gold and silver reserves. Put a cap on spending and reckless borrowing.
The Two Houses of Congress
Congress is divided into two chambers, the Senate and the House of Representatives.The Senate is sometimes called the upper chamber and the House the lower chamber because the Founders thought that different sorts of people would be elected to these two bodies.
While a census of the nation was not completed until 1790, the U.S. Census Bureau estimates that there were about 2.5 million people living in the United States' original 13 States in 1776. Since then the nation has grown to more than 300,000,000 people in 50 states and Territories as of Jul 3, 2016.

No need to send more than 300 people to D.C. to work for the American people. This would eliminate the gerrymandering Congressional districts.
We The People are America. Unless WE change, America will not change. Unless we are willing to demand absolute honesty, absolute unselfishness, and absolute love in our lives and in our relationships and responsibilities, America, the land of the free, will lose her freedom because We The People no longer have the moral courage and spiritual values to maintain a Constitutional Republic.
