  14.  
  15. In the age of reason we the people cannot accept the current political and economic systems that are used to govern the world by a privileged elite. Tyrannical forces that are employed by our governments and imposed on the people through strategic psychological oppression must cease to exist. The proximity of our ultimate fate as a species has caused us to reexamine some of the truths that we hold to be self-evident. All Persons are created by nature and are curiously and wonderfully made.
  16.  
  17. Therefore, our inalienable rights of Life, Liberty, Freedom and Security, Privacy, Property, and the pursuit of Happiness are to be valued by all and available to all who desire such qualities. They shall be secured by governmental entities, instituted by the people, monitored by the people, and most importantly serve for the best interests of the people. At the present, our governments have forsaken their oaths; hence, the trust once afforded to our leaders has been destroyed as deception continues to pollute the once free air of our homeland.
  18.  
  19. In order to survive, the time has come for us to reclaim our freedom. No more shall we suffer and be passive as our government attempts to subjugate our civil liberties; our tolerance has been tested to its limit. To authenticate our speech, we will provide facts and evidence supporting any assertions so that you may bear witness to the upcoming liberation.
  20.  
  21. The government has infringed on our Natural Rights as People.
  22.  
  23. The government has embraced an obsolete economic system, thus imposing on our personal, political, and economic freedoms.
  24.  
  25. The government has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution, and unacknowledged by our laws, giving assent to their acts of pretended legislation.
  26.  
  27. The government has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harass our people.
  28.  
  29. The government has militarized law enforcement and Officers of other Offices.
  30.  
  31. The government has failed to disclose information on acts of terrorism, both at home and abroad, although truth is a fundamental belief that should be shared and practiced by all citizens of the world.
  32.  
  33. The government has engaged in preemptive wars without any civilian control or oversight of the military.
  34.  
  35. The government has launched unconstitutional invasions of independent nations without declaring war on those nations. These have not been justified by the common defense of the planet.
  36.  
  37. The government has used false flag terrorism and staged provocations in an effort to justify their malicious objectives for global control.
  38.  
  39. The government has in many cases verboten our right to petition and peacefully assemble for a redress of grievances, which violates freedom of speech.
  40.  
  41. The government has denied the presence of political diversity and has ruled our countries by visibly antiquated and undemocratic systems.
  42.  
  43. The government has failed in protecting the fragile environment from pollution that threatens our long-term survival as a species.
  44.  
  45. Throughout the course of these oppressions many of us were ignorant to the fact that our leaders were engaged in such atrocities. Some of us feared knowing the truth and instead negated the facts as a defense mechanism to mask our disappointment. Among the few, however, the truth was transparent as we wrestled against the pressures of conformity with the status quo. Yet we persevered and we will no longer allow our governments to be deaf to the voice of justice nor dilatory in amending the current state of our nations.
  46.  
  47. The People should never fear their government, instead, the government should fear it's People.
  48.  
  49. We the People of the world choose to re-declare and re-establish our sovereignty. We are the ultimate authority of our governments and our planet. We expect and demand that our governments will abandon secrecy and accept truth and integrity. We reject the status quo and are united in our pursuit to bring into fruition the constitutional and foundational precepts of our great nation.
  50.  
  51. This nation of People under the universe shall have a new birth of freedom, and will ensure that a secular government of the People, by the People, and for the People, shall not perish from the earth.

  62.  
  63. By the authority of the Declaration of Independence, which recognizes that governments are instituted to secure the rights of People and derive their just powers from the consent of the governed, and of the Constitution. Therefore, as all power of governance is inherent in the People, we the People of Greenway declare that all Persons who form a social compact are equal in right: that all power is inherent in the People, and all free governments are founded on their authority, and instituted for their peace, safety, and happiness; and they have at all times a right to alter, reform, or abolish the government in such manner as they may think proper.

  66.  
  67. Further, it should be understood that the sole object and only legitimate end of government is to protect the citizen in the enjoyment of Life, Liberty, Freedom and Security, Privacy, Property, and the pursuit of Happiness, and when the government assumes other functions this becomes unjust usurpation and oppression. The government shall maximize positive physical and emotional experience of the People while minimizing the negative.

The Greenway shall guarantee equality of rights, privileges and duties to all the States as States; to all the citizens of each State as individuals, and shall see to it that no State shall enforce any law which shall trespass upon individual rights as declared to be such by this Constitution.
  84.  
  85. All power is originally inherent in and consequently derived from the People, therefore, all officers of government, whether judicial, legislative or executive, are their trustees and servants; and at all times, in a legal way, accountable to them.

  1448. We the People of Greenway declare:
  1449.  
  1450. We the People recognize that our communities are under siege from the corporations that cause economic, cultural, environmental, and public harm;
  1451.  
  1452. We the People recognize our confinement in a system of laws that grants greater rights to corporations than to residents of our communities;
  1453.  
  1454. We the People recognize that this system grants corporate minorities the legal authority to override the community majority right to choose that which secures its health, safety, and wellfare;
  1455.  
  1456. We the People recognize that the legal system has conferred unequal power on the basis of property ownership so that those holding the most property obtain and wield superior rights;
  1457.  
  1458. We the People recognize that this system of law hinders and obstructs our ability to adapt to economic, cultural, and environmental change;
  1459.  
  1460. We the People recognize that corporate control of legislation and governance denies our right to an authentically democratic Local, State, and Federal representation necessary to protect our communities from corporate harms;
  1461.  
  1462. We the People recognize that our health, safety, welfare, and survival of our local businesses, farms, ecosystems, and neighborhoods depend on restructuring the current system of governance, because it favors corporations over community-based, democratic decision-making;
