The Constitution Of "The Direct Democracy Republic Common Wealth Of The United States Of America" -- Part 2 - Our New Bill Of Rights and Responsibilities -- Article 5 -- Our Basic Alienable National Legal Rights and Responsibilities:

(36) The Right to have three Federal, or State government provided choices for one Competent Legal Counsel, for those lacking the funds to buy the services of a lawyer. (Or should We be thinking in terms of "Legal Teams", instead of singular legal representation?)


The Responsibility of this Right is upon We The People in Our Governance Capacity for Justice and Fairness in Our Society. And Standards will be developed for the extent of "Competency" addressed here.

(37) The Right to Tell The Truth. Protection for "Whistle Blowers". This includes "deals" with criminals for National Judicial, or State's evidence. (Dependent on the State's Discretion regarding jurisdiction of a case.)

This Right covers the incidences when an Individual initially divulges the Truth to American government agencies, or the news media, but not to foreign agencies, or to organizations within the sovereign American Republic Common Wealth that are dedicated to the overthrow of American Direct Democracy Governance.


The Responsibility of this Right is to encourage the revealing of Truth; that is so important to the process of True Justice.


(38) The Right to Sue Corporations for negligence, or harmful services, or products, without "coerced arbitration"*, especially if an offense has caused "harm" to a person or property. The corporate concept of "Limited Liability" has become abused.


The Responsibility of this Right is to not allow corporations to escape their legal responsibilities to the People and to the Nation.
*"Coerced arbitration" is any resort to third party adjudication, or compromises that is NOT willingly agreed to by all concerned parties in a litigation matter.

(39) The Right of American Corporations to sue American "Members of Society" and "True Citizens", for immoral, unethical and/or illegal acts that "harms" the corporations. "Harm" does NOT include "potential loss of profits".

The Responsibility of this Right is the provision of Equal Justice to American Corporations"of "Good and Legal Standing". Standards for "Good and Legal Standing" will be developed.

(40) The Right of "Business Members Of Society"* and "True Citizens" to have Freedom from "unfair" Business Activities and competition, from Entrepreneurs and corporations.

The Responsibility of this Right is to help curtail unfair business practices, such as blocking materials and tools that a business would need to fairly compete. To acquire all of these material stocks and items, in order to prevent competition from acquiring them is unethical and illegal.


* "Business Members of Society" are the "Members of American Society" that own and operate businesses in America, but who are not "True Citizens".

(41) The Right of businesses, entrepreneurs and inventors to have Federal and State Government protection from Invention and Patent Intrusion, within the time parameters of patents.

The Responsibility of this Right is to increase the protections for original inventions and patents. Variations on basic invention ideas will come under closer scrutiny and regulation. The "protection" will revolve around the task that the invention was designed to do and the basic design to achieve this task.


(42) The Right of the "Members of Society" and the "True Citizens" to clearly written and otherwise expressed, legal deliberation and documentation. No more "fine print"! All rules and conditions of contracts will be the same font size as the rest of the document. This practice is an abuse of psychology.


The Responsibility of this Right is to increase the understanding of a transaction on the part of the consumer. The seller should not be allowed to make "disclaimers" smaller on documents, or made visible quicker on media ads. No "flash" disclaimers that cannot even be read because the lettering or audio messages are too small or rapidly spoken.

(43) The Right of The American People and the Corporations to "reasonably" swift Justice;

(A) No more "stonewalling", or "unnecessarily delaying" the legal process with other than one appeal.

(B) Additional appeals will be implemented during the time that the judicial decision is carried out.

(C) The New Standards of Decency in Legal Procedure will define the proper time lengths for legal actions.

(D) There will be more "judges" and court personnel to expedite the timely process of cases. And, if need be, The courts will operate around the clock.

The Responsibility of this Right is to not try to "wear down" or exhaust the patience of litigants in the business sector judicial process. Prescribed times of procedures, for the courts and all concerned in a case, will be enforced in this. "Prescribed Times" for these litigation procedures will be Standards developed for this.

(44) Freedom from Commercial Servitude (debt), Out Of Court Collection Practices and Unjust Penalties for Late Payments;

(A) In New Standards, The People will decide what is permitted regarding the amount and frequency that these punitive business justice decisions are allowed.

(B) New strengths will be added to the enforcement of these Fair Decisions.

(C) No business will be driven into bankruptcy, or Individuals into "poverty" by "Fair Debt Payment Decisions". Fair and Decent Standards for the meaning of "bankruptcy" and "poverty" will be developed.

The Responsibility of this Right is for increased understanding and watchfulness of the ethical responsibilities of Individual consumers and businesses in transactions that involve credit. It might help, with this matter, if professional or volunteer, third arbitration institutions would be developed to investigate these kinds of transactions.

(45) Family Farmers will have the Right to not be conflicted, or intruded upon, by corporate farms. Each of these Prosperity Sectors will stay in their assigned operational areas. The spread of pollen, beyond its original area of application. will be seen as;

(A) An "Act of God".

(B) A deliberate and illegal attempt to intrude on the enterprise of Honest Farmers, or Seed Growers.

The Responsibility of this Right is to prevent prosperity interference from corporate farming strategies and tactics on the Family Farms of American Tradition.

I see the Evolution of America as interconnected with that of Narbarism and, Hopefully, a source of Many, Many kinds of "Strength" for it. We will see.

I have become very dependent on OpEd News for the sharing of Kindred Souls who reassure and even inspire me with their ideas about Life and Our Society. I am also grateful to the conservative agents, who come here and share their perspective on life and Nation and issue challenges to what We Progressives are trying to achieve.

I come here just about everyday to watch for news and discussions that reveal the progress of Meaningful Change and Humanity's Evolution on Earth and the oppositional challenges to the same.
