Who Cares About the Constitution?

What do global warming, the economic meltdown and health care crisis have in common? They are all problems that could be solved by changing the Constitution. Yet most people think the Constitution is irrelevant to their daily lives and has no real impact on the world around them.

Nothing could be further from the truth.

Imagine if the Constitution banned all forms of pollution. Global warming would disappear. What if the Constitution regulated the financial system. Banks wouldn’t collapse and your hard-earned money would actually be safe. Imagine if the Constitution made the government provide the best health care system in the world, for free, for all citizens. You wouldn’t have to worry about getting sick, getting better or how to pay for it.

Unfortunately the Constitution as it stands, can’t do any of these things. But imagine if it was rewritten and these principles were locked in, where politicians and big business couldn’t meddle with them?

The Consensus Artifact shows us how to bring about this change. It creates the important connections between the complex world of politics and the day-to-day issues that affect your life and really matter to you. Reading the book will turn your well-founded mistrust of politicians and the political system into a desire for change and action.
