The Economic Branch of Government
Does anyone have an objection to creating a Constitutional Amendment to include and regulate lobbying in the USA government?
My advice is to include lobbyists government branch, effectively meaning the creation of a fourth branch of government aimed at protecting interests of capitalists, such that this caucus would have checks and balances in the same way that the other government branches check and balance each other.
This is necessary because as Robert B. Reich informs in his book, “Supercapitalism,” democracy has become overwhelmed by lobbyists. I have also heard former Congressman Delahunt speak on the issue of lobbyists. Additionally, before Barrack Obama became President, in his book, “The Audacity of Hope,” wrote on the problems of lobbyists and the difficulty of raising funds without selling out.
This economic branch of the government might be established as a body of representatives at the federal and the state level. Thus, my suggestion is to create an economic branch of government in addition to the executive, legislative and judicial branches.
Speaking in terms of Greek mythology, this idea is founded upon the idea that Hades was Zeus’ brother. In terms of the Bible, what I am saying is that perhaps the pervasiveness of Zerahites or Shelahites sometimes creates instability, and such that government needs to include the modus operandi of both.
