To Form a Perfect Union - Mark Smith - Bog

More and more we see an increasing divisiveness in America that makes the Civil War pale in comparison. What has led us down this road? How did we get so far down the rabbit hole? Is there any way to reverse this disintegration of our Society? Can we stop the impending doom predicted by the fate of so many other societies that have gone before us? To Form a Perfect Union revisits our basic social contract and offers a path back to our evolution as the most advanced, heterogenous society in the world. Simultaneously simple and complex, it explores the keys that unlock the impediments to this journey. Unlike more recent apologists who endorse historical events as the impetus to justify a changing social contract, the author picks up where traditional commentators left off and looks to our innate human nature-both good and bad-as the foundation of society and its obligations both to itself and its government. The work sets a high but achievable bar for the citizen as it sets the stage for further thought as to who we are and who we want to be as a society. If we are broken or bonded depends largely on how we, rather than government, rally as a society. To Form a Perfect Union strives to motivate the citizenry to re-actualize themselves by striping away the fog that has settle overhead and to get back to basics: The Forgotten American Social Contract.
