: An interesting thought. To create a new government right on
: top of the corrupted one...
Almost. :) The idea is to _repopulate_ the _vacant_ government that we already have. It went like this:
1871: The District of Columbia Organic Act created a private corporation with the trademarked name "United States Government". Call that Corp-US. This was done, lawfully, Constitutionally, to carry out the business affairs of Govt-US.
1913: Corp-US was broke and had to borrow funds, from "those families". The loan (not of money, but of notes) was made, on condition that the Federal Reserve Bank be created. This is when the 16th and 17th Amendments showed up in Corp-US's Constitution.
1914: All freshmen Senators and Senators reelected by popular vote were seated _not_ in Govt-US but in Corp-US 'offices' only. The Government has been largely vacant, ever since.
1944: Corp-US was quit-claimed to the International Monetary Fund, making it a foreign-controlled private corporation.
(No wonder everyone's gotten so upset about the UAE ports deal; we prolly subconsciously sense our own so-called government has been foreign-controlled for decades. :)
So, the idea is not to create a new government on top of the old one - but to _revive_ the original government that always should have been at the foundation of Corp-US and directing its activities. (Presumably that Govt-US could revoke the 'charter' of Corp-US.)
: The government is a representation of the morality of the
: people who allow that government to live.
Hmm; certainly could be - but as pointed out, that's a corporation we're looking at, not the actual government. The people might choose for it to go away, whenever they finally realize how the whole scam and deception has been laid upon them.
I don't think we can lay responsibility for a corrupt Corp-US at the feet of the people who have done their best to play by the rules and "do their civic duty" as they've been led to understand that duty. It's nonsensical to expect the people to do something about all that, unless/until they can understand how they, and their parents before them, have been deceived and defrauded.
: What can we do? Attend city council meetings? Investigate our
: politicians? I say YES to both.
Yah - some folks might find that fitting to do, and do it. But they'll be investigating from the wrong angle-of-view until they come to understand this distinction between "the corporations" and "the actual intended government." States, counties and cities have also "incorporated" thanks to some advice given by the IMF to the State Governors in 1968.

(It begins by saying Lincoln put the country on a martial rule / emergency war powers footing. I'm not sure that's correct, as I understand C.J. Taney told Lincoln he could not legally pursue the Civil War via that method, but Lincoln did it, or pretended to do it, that way anyway. I'm not sure of the legal and Constitutional ramifications of that, but it may prove the Corp-US has been illegal from the beginning and all its statutes and regulations might be 'void ab initio' because of it.)
