Well everyone, here's my first post on my new blog. Probably the best way to start a blog would be to outline what will be going into said blog, so that's what I intend to do.
You can't understand where I'll be coming from unless you understand my socio-political view of the world, so that's gonna be the subject of this here post. To preface THAT, I have to explain my personal theories about how stuff works. I believe, first off, that every nation, empire, people or other society are cyclical in nature. This idea I got from the book "America's Man on Horseback" by Guy Odom. () One can see evidence of this cyclical nature in Rome (Kingdom, Republic, Empire), Russia (Barbarian, Empire, Totalitarian), and others. My belief, guided by this cyclical theory, is that the "indomitable" United States of America is going to fall apart in the next fifteen to twenty years.
"Hey now" you're probably thinking. You can't do that, sir.
Well, I'm not saying were going to collapse, I'm simply saying that we are going to transition to the next phase of American society. That's where my political views come into the picture.
The way I see it, a majority of the people in this world, especially our decrepit and corpulent nation, is retarded. This is actually not a fair term, because I personally know mentally challenged individuals with a greater IQ than the average American. But anyhoo, people are stupid. This is a fact of life (just look at the 90's for god's sake). Because of this fact, I believe that the best form of government is one where the people can actively participate, but not actually screw up everything. I believe in constitutional monarchy.
The way I would set up "my" U.S. is like this.
1. Take the office of the POTUS and change that into a hereditary monarchy. To ensure that the new monarch would always be suitable set up certain requirements for the throne (intelligence test, bachelor's degree, pass USMC recruit training). His powers would be similar to the POTUS, but with the ability to create and enact laws on his own, as well as veto power and all that POTUS crap.
2. Get rid of the Supreme court. Seriously, why do they exist? (As a branch of Government anyhoo) Replace with a Council of the High Lords, made up of the rulers of the three subgroups that the U.S. would be divided into (powers identical to monarch, but localized.) They can do the same things as the senate can now, but this council would also have the power of veto if they act unanimously.
3. House of Reps remains the same, however they can veto either of the other two branches with a sixty-six percent majority.
4. Have this system (Steps 1, 2, and 3) trickle down in a federal manner, to the subregions of the High Lord's super regions, then to the states, then counties, and then towns, where the nobility and the executive are identical.
Well thats all I've got for tonight. Please comment, it will make me happy.

The correct phrasing of the fifth paragraph would be "way I see it, a majority of the people in this world, especially our decrepit and corpulent nation, is retarded." I just would like to point that out since you are talking about intelligence and I found it relevant. Although I should not be talking because it took me four tries to spell relevant right.
Thanks William. Change'd.
