America (Europe and the rest too) has stalled politically, socially, economically, industrially but the people can pull it out of the free fall and only the people, ordinary Americans can and this is how and why:
The politicians and the lobbies do not want change because they benefit from the current system that gives all executive and legislative power to politicians and lobbies.
The needed change is to add “the Swiss clause” to the US Constitution just like the Swiss did in the1800s to their American-inspired constitution.
This is what they did: they took to the streets, peacefully but relentlessly, demanding essentially that the voters must have veto power over any law or policy developed by the poluticians if any group of citizens is able to collect about 1% of signatures of registered to take their proposal to stop the politician to a referendum whose results must be enacted by the politicians and that not even the Supreme Court can modify or invalidate.
This simple change radically shifted control of the Swiss federal government, state governments and city governments from elected politicians and top bureaucrats to the people. The change also radically reduced the political power if the lobbies and of big money.
The results have been in for decades; Switzerland is the best governed most stable country in the World and has the most stable governments.
But only the people, the ordinary, intelligent Americans with common sense, who are the majority of Americans can bring the change.
The very same people who are the backbone of any country, those who are responsible parents, husbands and wives, responsible workers,
responsible neighbours, responsible drivers and so on. They have a lot at stake.
The politicians have demonstrated they need direct supervision by the people of any (not all) of their decisions.
If the people are disillusioned, disappointed, angry at politicians and lobbies if all the youtubers do is point out what is wrong if all we do is post in X, Substack, TikTok, etc., NOTHING will change if the people are not at the steering will and also control the political acellerator.
All postings and debates by ordinary Republicans and Democrats; all that Charlie Kirk did, all the great interviews by Joe Rogan and others, all the books and editorials from the Left and the Right, all of that are distractions and entertsiment until the hard fact is corrected, that the American people and the people of all representative democracies are second class citizens who can speak but can not do, voting to just elect us not enough, we need to vote on issues.
People in non-democracies are basically treated like working animals, no rights, China the obvious example.
This is why America, and other countries nedd “The Swiss Amendment”:
Americans have to face the truth; the executive and the legislative of the federal government, state governments and city governments are all controlled by the rich and the big business lobbies.
Most American politicians can not serve the people because they depend on big money to finance their electoral campaigns.
The big lobbies and big money have figured out that by giving big money to Republican and Democrat candidates they control most politicians. They might prefer Democrats for cheap labor through open borders or Republicans low business taxes or keeping big business happy by not touching the big health, big pharma or big weapons interests.
The result is that US democracy is as dead a democracy in the German Weimar Republik in the 1930s.
You know who and how killed it.
Already America shows the same symptons; deep polarisation, politicians discredited and growing antisemitism.
The only missing ingredient, a big depression.
The catastrophe can be avoided and no, Trump can not do it, in fact he is accelerating it because he too has fallen under the control of the lobbies.
That is demolarising his base and even independent lefties who disagree with nany of his policies but hate the control by the lobbies as much as his own base.
Millions of Americans saw Trump a a candidate free of lobby control of control by the lobbies. Unfirtunately he had no option but to take lobby money, Musk money to get elected. His party also needs big money for the midterms.
The people saw how Bush, Obama, Trump many before fell under big money and lobby control and Congress too, no matter what party controls Congress.
It is obvious know to every American on the Left and the Right that, no matter who is the next president, no matter what party controls The House or The Senate, the government will continue to be controlled by big money and the lobbies.
