THIS is what a Republic is, fuck democracy.
The second paragraph of the Declaration of Independence, which begins with the famous words: "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness." The specific passage regarding the consent of the governed reads: "That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed." This highlights the principle that legitimate governmental authority is derived from the consent of the people being governed.
Our government is not autonomous, it answers to the people but we stopped demanding asnwers.
