This Joe Is No Ordinary Joe!
Democracy Is NOT A Spectator Sport!!
On December 23, 2021 I was joined by Joe Howard to discuss how Americans abroad can become part of "democratic renewal in America". This is a continuation of our discussion. We are joined by Athena Mason and Marc Nixon. Both Athena and Marc are leaders in the movement to create a democracy in America where the interests of all Americans are considered. You are invited to connect with Athena and Marc at OurVoices.party.
The description to the December 23, 2021 podcast included:
There are two groups of Americans whose interests are not considered in the political process.
Group 1 - Americans Abroad: US citizens living outside the USA who are very much aware that their interests are not represented.
Group 2 - Resident Americans: US citizens living inside the USA who (although able to vote) do not have the opportunity to vote for candidates who represent their interests. They are increasingly becoming aware that their interests are not represented.
Unfortunately the US political process is run for and only for the mainstream political parties. Neither party has either awareness or concern for the interests of Americans abroad. To put it simply:
"It's not they don't care. It's that they don't care that they don't care!"
There is no short term solution to the "PartyOcracy" of US politics. In the long run "Democracy In America" will survive only with the creation of new political parties and through the rise of independent candidates. This is the only way to nourish candidates who represent the interests of the voters rather than the interests of the parties.
In today's podcast I had the opportunity to speak with Joe Howard. Joe is an American (with an interesting background) living in Thailand where he teaches English and Physical Education. He is also working on a Masters in Education through the University Of The People.
Joe is doing what no expat or group has done before. He is working with new political parties to ensure that the interests of Americans abroad are represented and that pure residence-based taxation is part of the agenda/platform.
He is currently working with the "United People's Assembly" which is creating an Americans Abroad caucus. With or without changes in US tax policy it is essential that the interests of Americans abroad find a home in the US political process.
Americans abroad are good at complaining and bad about taking specific steps to help their situation. You are invited to ride on Joe's work. All that is required is that you support democratic renewal for Americans abroad!
United People's Assembly (Guilded) is getting organized. The Guilded link is an invite link.
