A Government That Serves the People, Not Itself
In a healthy democracy, power belongs to the people—not to lifelong bureaucrats or entrenched political elites. But in Massachusetts, that balance has been lost.
When unelected insiders and partisan gatekeepers hold more influence than voters, we no longer have a functioning democracy—we have an oligarchy.
Government should work for the citizens, not serve as a career ladder, a family inheritance, or a personal empire. Public service is a duty, not a benefit package. Transparency, audits, and accountability aren’t optional—they are essential.
Our founding documents—both the U.S. Constitution and the Constitution of Massachusetts—clearly define a structure of three separate, co-equal branches of government. These checks and balances weren’t designed to be symbolic; they were meant to protect us from power grabs and one-party dominance.
