Now we are in an turning point of history, one on which power can be redistributed in a way that it's most beneficial for the people. Not only that, we can actually take some of the power for ourselves so we can actually put to work where we need it the most.
In many ways, modern technology is allowing democracy to expand to people to have more power on their hands. There is still some way to go before we have full democracy, yet each day people has more power on their hands in order to be more self sufficient. The power of government is getting more decentralized, with much of that power going to the people.
If we want to have a more fair, and equal, society we need to be more active on this redistribution of power. Unless we act, so we can take some power on our hands, we'll lose a great chance to have a meaningful voice on the government or to be able the government itself. The government shouldn't be come from the people, it should be the people itself. In many ways, the government shouldn't just represent the people, it should be the people acting so all works according our own interests so it takes us where we want to be.
The tools to be able to do so are not just coming our way, they are getting better each passing day. Now we need to take them, and wield them in a way that allow not only to take power on our hands. We need to learn how to use them effectively, while we being able to keep the power we gain.
Our government systems need to change, since they have demonstrated that they are not the ones that we need or want to have. They not entirely represent our will, or are efficient at meeting our needs. We need to gain the the power to change our government systems, and make sure that the new systems that arise truly are the ones we need and really represent the will of the people.
We can be part of history, and not only by being in the mist of the changes around us. We can be the ones who build the world we want, in essence be the architects of our future. Are you going to be part of it, or just sit on the sidelines?
