Quote by: Clarence Why do away with the federal gov't? We could just fix it to fit the original plan by the founding fathers. It would have to meet modern problems but the essence and goals and attitudes would be the same. This would take an armed revolt at this time. IMO. Too late. Hoodwinked!! Come on, Al Gore!!

Although great and honorable and no doubt executed with the best of intentions in mind, obviously there was something wrong with the founding father's plan, otherwise the US government would not have taken this route. Look at the french revolution. After the king, who was hoplessly corrupted by power and money; they essentially had a dictator, that was also quickly corrupted and began decapitating those who did not aggree with him. We are in the same boat at the moment. Trying the same methodology again would most likely yeild the same result of a corrupt and oppressive government.

In short, trying the same thing again would probably be only a quick fix, trying something new would yeild different and possibly better results.
