Wow, I love this video, Mark Hamilton! It cuts to the chase with little preamble, shows very clearly what those founding forefathers didn’t quite grasp yet about human nature, that humans in general are weak, grasping, self-serving, often no better than chickens in a farmyard, pecking out their ‘pecking order,’ and sometimes pecking-or starving- the tiniest and weakest chickens to death. However, we are moving up as a species into a loftier emotional place, better able to divest ourselves of power in order to help improve the whole reality, to comprehend and create towards the ‘betterment of all.’ I totally appreciate that you are attempting to do so. Kudos! I also love it that you grok–understand–that in general humans managing to move away from the old bicameral mentality is still iffy, at best. We’re in a transition phase with that, and therefore still quite vulnerable. So, instilling the Prime Law is essential, and important…interesting that the Founders didn’t think of that…just too big a stretch to even comprehend back then, I guess. Also, I’m so excited that you created the TVP ‘political’ contract, to ensure that those people we elect to be instrumental in leading this monumental and historical change in the political reality of America will be held in check, both from possible outside forces attempting to pervert and twist them, and from their own possible internal weaknesses. Those things that are most obvious are often those that are missed…Yes, de is, ain’t de do?
