Whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.

on moving toward an Society. But I hadn't thought about why they're so productive. Then I realized it's because they never get bogged down with all the meta conversations that drag down : "Who's paying for this?" "When do we get approval?" "Who gets credit for this?" Yada, yada... But the developers of [OSS2] ([Open Source Society]; [OSS1] is [Open Source Software]), whose work we desperately need if we are to escape from the political specialists who've hijacked governance, don't behave like that ([OSS1] people self-assemble from component services - blogs, wikis, calendard sites; [OSS2] people want it all at one place). Many of the people who are best qualified to be producers of [OSS2]: a new Open Source Society, are grandparents. Yep. They're society's best judge of the -s we should maintain, but they're also the least technical among us. The [OSS2] developers we seek to serve are ready and able to form groups and describe their pain and hopes.
