Yes, it isn’t on the constitution because the founding fathers didn’t ever want to give the people direct control over anything. It boils my blood

The “people” are easily misguided by the powers that be via their media systems

So the only alternative is to allow the powers that be to rule the system while we all suffer?

No, to develop better elites bounded by higher truths and morality that can create parallel and reformed systems. Not all of us are exactly in the intellectual elite echelons, that’s okay everyone is different, but we should make sure the ones that are—aren’t psychotic like the current ones

How do we enact that? The elites are the ones in control and they’d never let that happen

Start with your family and friends, your local community. Invest more resources in the children overall, but especially moreso in those qualitatively proven to have elite potential, deep understanding, and moral fortitude. Some might fall through the cracks past surrounding people’s insights into their potential, but if they do actually have a lot of potential, they’ll figure things out and succeed anyway

Power is in systems, information, leverage, & people; we are a power unto ourselves when there are enough of us working together, with the elites we develop from among ourselves functioning as the leading brains for us as the body in how to coordinate and use our latent power to higher goods
