Grassroots Democracy

​The purpose of a democratic-representative form of government is for We the People to have control over our elected officials and our communities, but at this time we have neither!

The two-Party system has been controlled by rich special interests for decades, who profit from wars, fossil fuel destruction, economic manipulations, health care lies and fears, big banksters, and food chain contamination. Political prostitutes rewarded by PACs and super PACs dominate Congress and the White House.

Elections are the way to replace corrupt politicians but most folks just vote the same every two years and then they expect different results (a sign of mass insanity?). We need to vote for new independent thinking people who will refuse PAC bribes and promote community rights!

The NH Community Rights Network has assisted a dozen towns with passing ordinances that protect their water resources and ecosystem, and we need many more people taking charge in their communities. We really need more legislators working for grassroots democracy!

We can and must re-organize our democracy from the local towns up, and the 2022 elections provide the way if We the People develop the will! Vote for change instead of the corrupt status quo!

Sincerely, Peter A. White, Treasurer, NH Community Rights Network
