setting the framework

In the past, my writing has been sporadic in its outlook as well as in its output. I hope to change that on both accounts, the former by providing a framework and focus to the general direction of my posts and the latter by posting on a weekly basis on every Thursday night. We shall see. I am often pulled in many directions at once but I will try my best.

I have two primary goals in my writing.

1.To articulate the decline and fall of the American Empire.

This topic is overwhelming in its evidence and therefore endless in its possibilities but I will attempt to focus on a few highlights:
a. Resource depletion especially oil
b. Population/economic growth
c. Economic/societal disintegration due to the conflicting trends of population/economic growth and resource depletion

2. To convince you, the reader, that support for Vermont secession is the only moral, economic, and sustainably viable option for the coming decades and centuries.

I will address the historical record as a way to help divine a more just and equal government that is dedicated to preserving our basic human rights. This will include:

a.
The formation of a truly egalitarian nation
b. The 1777 Vermont Constitution
c. Freedom and Unity
d. A sustainable competitive market place.

I look forward to this task and I hope you, the reader, will join me on this journey. What I especially hope for is that you will also choose to participate and become part of the conversation by posting your comments and opinions.
