The True United States Of America

I propose a government of pure servitude for those in power.
This is how you bring the good to power.
Instead of spying on the people.
The people completely spy on the government.
All government employees get huge payments and lots of perks and bonuses for there families. The best paying job in the world.
But you as a person in power choose to sacrifice your freedom so that you can prove to America that the government is free of corruption so truth is brought to all.
100% monitoring and full disclosure of all government doings to the masses.

Why enslave a nation to ensure security for a group of the small yet large.
When you could enslave a handfull who volenteer for a short term and have them run the country. Enslave Billions of people to ensure security? Or enslave a handfull of volenteers for a few years. Think about it.

All we need is a well-informed republic and all government problems will fix themselves as a result of more intelligent voters.

True. The progressive era fueled this belief that "if you point out the problems, the public will fix it". Unfortunately, that was when we had Roosevelt on our side, now the government refuses to inform us at all.

Umm...

As someone that works in the government.

No, just no. Horribly, positively, no.

The private sector of an equivilent government position almost undoubtably pays more money.

For example, the kind of job I do...my girlfriend got a temp job with a big company, doing a similar type of deal, without finishing her degree yet (i had finished mine) and without needing a secret clearence (i do).

She made around five to six dollars more than me per hour when we took my sallary down to what it would be hourly.

And that's her in a TEMP position.
