Democracy is a failure. It is has become an old and obsolete system that needs replacement! Democracy failed 2000 years ago, and its genesis has been distorted since the beginning.
If Decentralization is the next step in the western civilization political stage, will it be a completely new alternative coming to disrupt the current western political systems? Or is it just a fine-tuning of what true Democracy should be?
http://thebypassmovement.com/manifesto/ The only reason America has a thing that is similar to a Democracy is, we as individual people have forgotten how to implement our common law, a thing that is allowed directly by the 7th and 9th Amendments to the Constitution (in the Bill of Rights), and is pointed at by the Preamble and the 6th Amendment.
Nowhere in any of this writing (Preamble, Constitution, Bill of Rights) is there a place that says that people are required to follow anything that is in the Constitution, or that flows out of it. Again, this is evidenced by the Preamble to the Constitution, and the 6th, 7th, and 9th Amendments.
The United Kingdom (Britain and the nations that are part of her), Canada, and Australia are similar. All of these nations, including America, base their law for everyday living of their non-government people, formally if not practically, on the Magna Carta (Note, there is not only one Magna Carta. It was made over several times.), and other great documents that essentially say: The people are free in every way except when they harm other people, damage the property of other people, or break a contract that harms or injures other people.
The 12 person jury is the body that has complete authority in any trial, for judging the law as effective or not, for judging the guilt or innocence of both the plaintiff and/or defendant, and for passing sentence. Don't let a judge tell you any different.
EDIT: If a judge holds a jury in contempt, the jury has the right and duty to call the judge's contempt issuance an error of the court, and then to hold the judge in contempt.
