What form of government do you propose for our current population?

IMHO, a return to the intent of our Founding Fathers. But if you are asking based on the demographic balance in our nation, I find that we, Conservatives, are moving into the minority and that the majority, whether citizens or illegal immigrants, would like to transform our nation into a Socialist, Marxist state. The problem, as I see it, is that once liberal, socialist programs began to be instilled into our government many in the last 2 generations have been raised to desire and expect to receive everything with no effort on their part. The irony is that many of those who promote the socialist agenda have no intent on that agenda actually applying to themselves as they hold themselves above the law, no matter the law. As proven in other countries, socialism is a method of control over the "little" people and a redistribution of weath, among other things. They know that it would bring about the downfall of our nation and goes against the founding principles upon which our nation are based. But they appear not to care.

I asked the question in reference to John Adams’ quote you posted. Since we no longer have a moral and religious people, would even the Founding Fathers’ vision be appropriate?

We have moved in a direction they feared, away from the republic to a mobocracy, and it’s showing. But what would Adams say is the best government for an amoral people?
