Synopsis "The Little Republics: A Guide to a Constitutional Form of Government at the Local Level"
All revolutions are and have been a response to the violations of the rights of the people and their perceived grievances, both real and imagined. Hence Jefferson's admonition: "The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants. It is its natural manure," Jefferson wrote this in a letter to William S. Smith, who was manning a diplomatic post in London, on November 13, 1787. This book is a quasi blueprint for people looking to alter and reform their local city and county governments to bring greater accountability and restrictions regarding codes, statutes, taxes, leans, levies and fees. The idea is to follow Thomas Jefferson's admonition to bind government with the chains of a constitution, including at the local level. Once he said famously, the Founders task was not yet finished, they needed to provide constitutional government to the "little republics." This book is about how to form those little constitutional republics in order to get the power of government back in the hands of "we the people."
