Apparently when 'representative democracy' in a Republic gets distant and unaccountable, things start to get nasty. We are now seeing these problems crop up: concentration of power, abuse of taxation, marginalization of the citizenry, and the move to vest more power into centralized government. Strangely enough the problems we face, in overview, are no different than <a href="http://thejacksonianparty.blogspot.com/2006/05/21st-century-and-we-people.html" rel="nofollow">we have faced before as a Republic</a>. What is now missing is flexible, responsive, limited representative government, that can quickly change and adapt because it takes on a light load and leaves the burden of things to We the People. That Republic could identify its foes and what to do about them... what we have today cannot. Well we seem to be seeing some troubles warned about some time ago when things first got rolling.
