Today I talk about the principles that underpin the concept of Locally Grown Government. The first two are the most important because they act as the limits or boundaries within which everything else happens. They are Sustainability and Adherence to the US Constitution. I think the structure of the Constitution was designed to be sustainable. It has allowed America to adapt to changing conditions while still remaining mostly true to the principles of bottom-up government and primacy of individual freedom. However, the flexibility of the Constitution also provides enough room for bad policy to be implemented that could ultimately tip the balance away from sustainability. It seems to me we are at that tipping point. After the first two principles, we will go into more depth about other important principles that would guide policy making.

United We Stand. Divided We Fall. Each One for the Other, and All for All.
