Power doesn't corrupt people, people corrupt power. -- William Gaddis
"Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely." - Lord John Dahlberg-Acton
Hello, and welcome to "Power Corrupts". I'm David Schied, a person just like you who is interested and doing something about the corruption of power I see happening all around me here in the United States. We need to re-institute independent "citizens' grand juries" as the "4th Branch of Government" to call corrupt government to accountability for not doing their job, to maintain the proper "checks and balances" on each of the three branches of government as otherwise prescribed and delegated by our State and Unites States constitutions.
Bio:
David Schied was born in Montana and raised in Oklahoma and Texas. After high school, he went on to realize his "American Dream" to be in Hollywood movies, to author two books, and to live in Japan. (His books - now out of print - were entitled, "Streetwise: An Introduction to Self-Defense" and "SAFE AT LAST! A Complete Manual to Home and Personal Security".) He graduated cum laude with two BA degrees from the University of Southern California. He went on to earn his Master's degree in Education at the University of Michigan. Since 2012, he has been working on his Ph.D in Education. He is also co-founder of the Sherman Institute.
A lifetime learner, David holds seven black belts in three styles of martial arts. He has a long history of "fighting" for victims' rights, civil rights, and Constitutional rights. He is also one of three Michigan "delegates" elected to attend the historical Continental Congress in 2009.
Statement:
"Courtesy, integrity, perseverance, self-control, and
indomitable spirit" are the tenants defining my life in
early adulthood. Biblical principles now govern my mid-life ambitions
as an advocate for family values, healthy lifestyles, and the rights
of American citizens to be free of government oppression, political
hypocrisy, and media propaganda. I believe in "equality for
all", with a special focus on the "underprivileged",
those who stand up against tyranny, and we who value Love and
Justice. I pledge to do my best, in duty to God, to the citizens of
the U.S., and to my family.
