It works for democracy as American citizens. They think, with great caution, that socialism can work for America, because they have it from a moral point of view.

We can’t accept the moral status quo and then use the power of the state to impose more tyranny than is justified.

So what’s next for the U.S.? Does it remain the same as it is? After being hit by a vicious cycle of government power, U.S. citizens are finally coming together to start making changes in how they live, work, and connect with the rest of the world.

The first major change is a series of public policy decisions that could be considered to strengthen U.S. citizens’ democratic legitimacy:

• Define “citizenship”: it includes all citizens of the United States (including those who live in other nations);
  
• All American citizens are entitled to vote at any time (without the need for an individual or a national passport); and
• All American citizens are allowed to choose between being a citizen of a country or state and being a U.S. citizen

The second major change is to ensure that all Americans—and all voters in the U.S.—have equal access to government services. Americans are getting better with every minute and every day. In 2007, an average of 9,000 Americans could easily live outside of the U.S., and this year it’s expected to get even higher (by 2032).

So why is it so hard to have access to basic services and health care? Because, as a group, Americans are much quicker than most, and many people may simply not even know their health needs exist. The U.S. is the third largest economic contributor to the average person’s monthly income. It’s estimated that around a quarter of all births to U.S. women come from overseas, making it the third largest source of funding for the country’s health care system.

These changes will likely include an increase in the number of college-educated Americans, which will decrease the cost of college and its associated benefits. The same data is also emerging that reveal that over time, many Americans begin to take care of themselves on a personal level.

One of the most basic reasons why higher education is an expensive proposition is that many states allow you to pay college tuition. This is especially true for colleges and universities; it is also a major reason why many colleges and universities charge higher tuition than others. In effect, for many, tuition increases are what we want, but not what we get for it.

In the absence of proper policies, tuition costs will rise, as do cost of living and the cost of living, all the more so since we are more dependent on tuition over time. Higher education is no longer a great investment for most of us because, once we have a college degree, we have no savings or financial means of making decisions outside our control.

We’ll talk a bit more about the cost of paying college next week.
