Mechanisms of Government?
I can tell you about our system if you wish, Victor, but will take a while to write it all down. Briefly...In most countries, people serve the government. Most Americans cannot understand this concept. In the US, the government was created to serve the people and is accountable to the people for their actions. (Right now they are not being very accountable) We have different levels of government, beginning at local. The hierarchy is in this order; local, county, state (Maryland, New York, Pennsylvania) and then federal. Federal is the highest. Our constitution delegates power to the states. In recent years, the federal government has tried to seize power from the states, and that is not going well. Americans are given legal right to firearms to defend from (overthrow) the federal government if the feds overreach their power; this is happening now. Federal cannot use military against citizens, by law. Military cannot be used to police citizens. Currently our federal government is out of control and an embarrassment to all Americans. I don't think the rest of the world is too happy, either. Big election in November, will be a political bloodbath. Those in power will likely be removed; the President may be impeached and serious changes come to our country. We all hope...and so does the rest of the world. Ask questions if you wish, Victor; I will try to answer.
