Another "Simple" Idea - Read the U.S. Constitution, Know Your Rights

If you read the U.S. Constitution, you will be very surprised to find it is a short, simple document. It's that way on purpose. The authors wanted real people to be able to carry it on their person and to understand its contents.

Isn't that a wonderfully "simple, simple" idea!

So, why do we need so many lawyers to decipher U.S. Constitutional law for us?

Here's the "simple, simple" answer -> people look for loop holes and are willing to pay lot's of money to those who can find them.

Ah, another "simple, simple" fact of life -> greed drives people to make things complex to hide what is really going on by confuse and bewilder "simple" folks, who have been led to believe there's something magic about being able to understand and interpret the law.

I don't think you are stupid and I think you should recognize what's happening. This is nothing new, but it can be stopped. All we need to do is call "FOUL" when we see something going against the rules. How do we know the rules? Read the U.S. Constitution for starts. Then, keep reading and get a copy of your state and local laws. You'll be surprised at what things you are still allowed to do in this country.

Please, make getting smart and taking charge of your life a priority. It's not too late to bring common sense back into our decision-making processes. It's not too late to talk with your neighbors and friends about how you would like your community to be operated. It's not too late to influence what and how subjects are taught in our schools. It's not too late to regain respect for ourselves.

It "simple, simple" takes getting up, turning off the TV, and getting some books from your local library for free - start reading, ask questions, and learn how you can make things better.
