You can create any reality for yourself if you focus on it long and hard enough. Our world is a product of our thoughts and actions. This applies to us as individuals but not in the collective form. While we have many guides for individuals on how to manifest reality we are missing a way for society as a whole to manifest our greatest ambitions.
Our governments have undermined democracy by limiting our input to one vote every few years.
People require more than this to manifest there individual and collective dreams. Its only through direct democracy tools like referendums and ballot initiatives can the will of the people be fully expressed. When countries are over taken by dictatorial regimes they often descend into economic calamity and worse situations where millions of innocent people are killed.
Real positive civic change can only happen when people regain their inherent right to self determination and demand a say in all government proposals. People will only be self determined when they have representatives that pledge to respond to the will of the people.
Society needs a global platform for online democracy. Once a direct democracy platform is widely used great things will begin to happen. If we continue to put our fate into the hands of dictatorial representatives then we will continue to falter on the economy, peace, environment and a host of life and death issues.
