America’s Bottoms Up Democratic Business Model
budbmweb.com

Both parties’ richest 1%’s politicians can’t be right when they have been illegally and unconstitutionally wrong for 46 years (1978 – 2024), also why they did such a good job covering-up their $35+ trillion debt spike, political and corporate waste (plunder total), conveniently with no money (audit) trails. Now, the richest 1%’s Republican President (Donald Trump) can continue ripping off America’s 99%, just like his 6 prior Republican and Democrat President predecessors have done. There is no other way to explain what happened to the “American people’s” U.S. government with a debt total that went from a 1978/$789 billion low to its current $36+ trillion total, still no end in sight, and still under both parties’ richest 1%’s bogus claims that no one is above the law, except the richest 1%! In 2002, 2 DOD audit whistleblowers, complained that they could not account for 25% of DOD’s budgets. The accountant whistleblower who created this website places the richest 1%’s plunder total much higher, and that more than supports the American people’s demands for Congress’ 3rd civil service reform and a mandate for President Donald Trump to cut the richest 1%’s plunder total ($35+ trillion), and not the 99%’s social programs, including its civil servant’s retirement benefits. 

The Home page labels the last 23 Congresses (95-118) and 7 Presidents (Ronald Reagan, George H.W. Bush, Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, Barack Obama, Donald Trump, Joe Biden) as the culpable richest 1% who created this $35+ trillion debt spike. 47 named civil servant and contractor whistleblowers record how that richest 1%’s undemocratic travesty unfolded and why they were forced into making 2 bad decisions. Implement both parties’ deregulation, privatizing, and outsourcing federal scam and you were richly rewarded for breaking the law, undermining the Constitution, and selling out America’s 99%. Or, try to expose the richest 1%’s federal scam and you were retaliated against, demoted, and/or fired for telling the truth. The ultimate travesty is that while America’s richest 1%’s politicians were masquerading as a democracy they were knowingly wasting their citizen’s tax dollars by deregulating (destroying) Congress’ prior 1883 Pendleton Civil Service Reform Act’s & U.S. Civil Service Commission (USCSC)’s rules and regulations that had once protected America’s 99% from all levels of corporate abuse. 

Those checks and balances vanished when Congress passed its unnecessary 1978 Civil service Reform Act (CSRA) despite the fact that Ernie Fitzgerald, an Air Force civil servant whistleblower, had proven that the USCSC had protected America’s democracy. After President Richard Nixon had Mr. Fitzgerald fired for exposing a 2.3 billion C5A transport plane cost overrun, Mr. Fitzgerald appealed his case to the USCSC and won that case only because the USCSC was not under the executive branch, and President Nixon’s control to fire him. Despite that fact, Congress marketed its 1978 CSRA as creating government efficiency when its real intent was to permanently eliminate their (Ernie Fitzgerald / Daniel Ellsberg) whistleblower problem. Then, over the next 46 years, 7 Presidents and 23 Congresses used Congress’ lawless 1978 CSRA to eliminate all levels of dissent, along with the checks balances that had existed under Congress’ prior 1883 Pendleton Civil Service Reform Act / USCSC, in the following ways: 

  • Congress’ 1978 CSRA: (1) gave each President access to 4 levels of loyal political appointees, and (2) divided the USCSC’s duties between 4 executive branch offices, under the pretense of protecting whistleblowers. Then, the last 23 Congresses and 7 Presidents illegally and unconstitutionally destroyed those 4 offices to permanently end both parties’ whistleblower problem, as follows:
      • Now, President Donald Trump is using Elon Musk to use OPM to force the richest 1%’s version of efficiency on America’s 99% (again), more debt, more lies, and more cover-ups from his richest 1%’s media friends, like Rupert Merdoch, Jeff Bezos and others to hide both their and their richest 1%’s politician’s lawless acts. This same undemocratic travesty had already occurred all the way back to President Ronald Reagan.
  • 7 Presidents (Ronald Reagan, George H.W. Bush, Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, Barack Obama, Donald Trump, and Joe Biden) used Congress’ 1978 CSRA’s newly created 4 levels of their loyal political appointees to unconstitutionally change the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) from a
    • pre-1978 CSRA civil servant executive branch of 2.1 million technically qualified/unbeholden civil servants to politically loyal/beholden (often unqualified) and both parties’ hordes of their politically-connected contractors. 
      • This undemocratic travesty is now the root cause of America’s richest 1%’s politician’s and corporation’s 46 year/$35+ trillion debt spike, now also legal (!?) per yet another one of Congress’ lawless laws, its latest March 2022 “new” dictatorial law to now confirm that our Forefather’s 1st 10 Amendments to the U.S. Constitution (our Bill of Rights) are now nothing more than useless pieces of paper!  

Antonia Juhasz, an expert in international trade and finance, explains how America’s richest 1%’s politicians used this same deregulation, privatizing, and outsourcing corporate efficiency scam to crash 13 citizen’s governments by also replacing their civil servants with America’s contractors, per her book, “The BU$H AGENDA, INVADING THE WORLD, One Economy at a Time.” For the “American people’s” 99%, this same corporate efficiency scam (Congress’ 1978 CSRA) led to the replacement of the executive branches’ technically qualified/unbeholden civil servants with politically loyal/beholden (often unqualified) civil servants and contractors. The below bullet highlights how this same federal scam works per the Home pages 47 whistleblowers who were also replaced with politically loyal/beholden (often unqualified) civil servants that both wasted the American people’s tax dollars ($35+ trillion, so far) and undermined every facet of their lives, per a few of the following examples: 

How does President Donald Trump have Elon Musk promote government efficiency, using Congress’ 1978 CSRA’s Office of Personnel Management (OPM), when 7 prior Presidents (including Trump) used that same OPM to create today’s 2.1 million already politically loyal civil servants that have already rubberstamped $35+ trillion in political and corporate waste (plunder) over the last 46 years? The last thing the American people need is an 8th richest 1%’s President (Donald Trump), who is still fixated on loyalty, like the other prior 7 Presidents (including Donald Trump)!

Albert Einstein’s definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result. The American people have more than fulfilled their civic duties and voted the bad guys out and the supposed good guys in, with one major problem! The bad guys included both the richest 1%’s Republicans and Democrats who have already destroyed the “American people’s” democracy and stolen $35+ trillion of their tax dollars. This undemocratic travesty is not going to change unless America’s 99% force the changes needed to make their government work for them and no longer for the richest 1%’s politicians, their richest 1%’s corporate friends, and their richest 1%’s media friends (like Rupert Merdoch and Jeff Bezos) who cover-up both their and their ricest 1%’s politicians.

This effort begins with Congress’ required 3rd civil service reform that creates a bottom up, more democratic form of government that this time  is “of, by, and for America’s 99%, and discussed in the following paragraphs.  Based upon the information discussed in this website, it becomes clear that for an American (or any) democracy to be credible, sustainable, and cost effective, America’s 99% must have access (real time) to: (1) the same levels of information as our politicians, in addition to possessing the checks and balances needed to validate the accuracy of the media information they receive, not too divide them with fake news but to unite them with the truth, and (2) an accurate accounting of how our politicians spend our tax dollars, also that both parties have successfully prevented for 235 years (1789 – 2024). Congress’ 3rd civil service reform should include 2 aspects of the U.S. government’s operation:

(1) Legal and financial culpability
America’s 99% must send a loud and clear message to the 5 still living Presidents (Clinton, George W. Bush, Barack Obama, Donald Trump, and Joe Biden), their Vice Presidents, and all still living 23 Congresses (95-118) current and former members (through their actions or inactions) that they jointly broke the law by retaliating against whistleblowers (using Congress’ lawless 1978 CSRA law) and that they must now be held legally and financially accountable for their crimes ($35+ trillion worth), including jail time.

  • In the case of President Donald Trump, he should face the same legal and financial levels of culpability as the other 4 Presidents. As in the case of President Richard Nixon, President Donald Trump should also be replaced with a Republican Congressman (or woman) who will end the lawless practices where Presidents have retaliated against whistleblowers  for rightfully questioning the political and corporate takeover of the “American people’s” U.S. government.

(2) Create a bottoms up more democratic form of government (3rd civil service reform) that rescinds its prior 2 civil service reforms and that includes the following 2 part process: (1) Recreate a technically qualified civil servant executive branch, starting ASAP, to restore the 1883 Pendleton Civil Service Reform Act and its USCSC’s checks and balances, and (2) Use that newly recreated technically qualified civil servant executive branch to legally and publicly question:

  • (a) Congress’ past, current, and future laws, (b) the President’s and their political appointee’s actions (reduced from 4 levels to 1 level), and (c) the judicial branches interpretations of the law, including the U.S. Supreme Court, and
    • including all distortions of the truth by America’s 1%’s richest media friends, like Rupert Merdoch, Jeff Bezos/others,
      • also yet to be held legally and financially accountable for their gross levels of misinformation that enriched themselves and America’s politicians. 
  • (b) An integral part of Congress’ 3rd civil service reform should also include the creation of a single 20-page (or smaller) U.S. Constitutional booklet that legally defines how the U.S. government operates, and with an open public acknowledgement that all changes, by either party, must include the republishing of a new U.S. Constitutional booklet. 

Given the absence of a constitutionally required technically qualified civil servant executive branch, those 47 named whistleblowers are now key to creating a better, stronger, and cost-effective democracy, and for the following reasons: (1) they know which laws to keep and to rescind, (2) they know which civil servants and political appointees broke the law and who are also legally and financially culpable for their crimes, (3) they can define the technical educational requirements for all civil servants, and that had once existed prior to Congress’ 1978 CSRA, (4) they know the strategies to create the bottoms up, more democratic infrastructures that are needed to expose all levels of political and corporate waste on a real time basis, not a 46 year/$35+ trillion dollar debt spike, after the fact, and (5) they also know how to responsibly and gradually decrease the U.S. government’s numbers of contractors to return those jobs back to civil servants, also key to decreasing these untenable trillion-dollar debt spikes.

Based upon that accountant whistleblower’s information, that was covered in this website, he identified how Congress’ 1978 Civil Service Reform Act’s newly created Office of Personnel Management (OPM) was used to eliminate the (pre 1978 CSRA’s) college degree requirement from 4 prior government service (GS) position standards, as follows: electrical engineers (GS-???), accountants (GS-510), auditors (GS-511), and information technology (GS-343) positions. However, he believes that the dumbing down of these 4 OPM position standards now covers the full gamut of the U.S. government’s operation, and that has now infected (politicized) entire departments, bureaus, and agencies, like both parties’ lucrative Department of Homeland Security.

Given the urgency of recreating a technically qualified GS civil servant executive branch, starting ASAP, that effort now requires the following 4 concurrent actions: (1) Those 4 dumbed down OPM professional position standards must be upgraded, to include those college degree requirements. (2) OPM must be legally required to complete a review of all federal professional position standards, and that must be made publicly available to the American people. (3) All OPM position standards that are not equivalent to their prior 1978 CSRA requirements and the private sector’s equivalent educational requirements must be upgraded, and republished for the American people. (4) All employees who are currently filling those higher professional positions, but lack the college degree requirements of those prior 1978 position standards, should be given the option of retiring at their higher (and undeserved GS grade and salary) or being demoted based upon their current educational qualifications. This action is necessary to change the executive branch from unqualified back to qualified, starting ASAP, and to recreate the checks and balances of educating each new President and their political appointees, as did exist up until Congress’ 1978 Civil Service Reform Act, and its deregulation, privatizing, outsourcing federal scam. This is also why all 47 whistleblower’s input is necessary to address their specific technical issues of the U.S government’s operation, this time openly and publicly, no longer filtered and covered-up by America’s richest 1% politicians. 

Based upon the information discussed in this website, and the need to eliminate 235 years 1789 – 2024) of both parties’ smoke in mirrors that were included in Congress’ 2 civil service reforms, the following 23 Citizen Based Government Reforms (CBGRSs) are offered as a starting point to include in Congress’ 3rd civil service reform. That includes restoring our Forefather’s most basic Bill of Rights (1st 10 Amendments to the U.S. Constitution), that 13 Congresses and 7 Presidents (including Donald Trump) have already destroyed, still under America’s richest 1%’s politicians version of the “American people’s” democracy: 

    • (1) Legally require the permanent end to America’s deregulation, privatizing, and outsourcing federal scam, that has already crashed 13 citizen’s governments, now inflicted on America’s 99%, and a wakeup call for citizens (worldwide) to work together to create the necessary checks and balances to manage the world’s richest 1%’s blatantly dishonest and morally bankrupt politicians.
      • That effort begins with America’s 99%’s demands to hold their richest 1% also blatantly dishonest and morally bankrupt politicians and corporate executives legally and financially accountable for their crimes against Americans and our fellow citizens (worldwide), including jail time. 
    • (2) Automatic recall vote for any politician, political appointee, judge, or Supreme Court Justice who fails to uphold our Forefather’s first ten Amendments to the U.S. Constitution, the American people’s Bill of Rights, and their most basic democratic rights, all violated by the last 7 Presidents, Congress, and U.S. Supreme Court Justices.
    • (3) Voter-based change – require that the winner of all presidential elections are based upon the popular vote and not our Forefather’s rigged an outdated Electoral College process.
    • (4) Campaign finance reform – fund all federal campaigns with fixed dollar amounts of the tax payer’s dollars, and get lobbyists and SuperPacs out of the business of corrupting America’s easily corruptible politicians.
    • (5) Automatic loss of office, fine and penalties ​for any public official who gets elected on a specific promise and then blatantly ignores that promise after they are elected, like President Barack Obama with his failed promise of an “open, transparent, accountable government” or President Donald J. Trump with his also failed promise to “Make America Great Again.”​
      • This same requirement must also apply to U.S. Supreme Court Justices who lie to Congress regarding their promises to uphold the Constitution (like Rowe v. Wade), and then conveniently change their minds after their appointments, and that occurred with the last 3 U.S. Supreme Court appointments, Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh, and Amy Coney Barrett.​
    • (6) End the practice of having 2 liberal and conservative media sources that are controlled by politicians and corporations, America’s capitalist version of a state-controlled media, not unlike Putin’s Russian dictator, only now under the richest 1%’s version of the “American people’s” democracy.
    •  (7) Rescind Congress’ March 2022 “new set” of laws that created 7 politicized and beholden groups to the President, also the antithesis of our Forefather’s 1883 Pendleton Act and USCSC that legally allowed whistleblowers, like Ernie Fitzgerald, to speak truth to President Richard M. Nixon, then undermined by the last 7 Presidents and Congress.
    • (8) Term limits for members of Congress – require that any Congressmen/women who exceed a fixed term limit, 2 six-year terms for the Senate, and 6 two-year terms for the House of Representatives (or some acceptable timeframe) must leave his or her office.
    • (9) Term limits for federal court judges and U.S. Supreme Court Justices – to depoliticize the judicial branch.
    • (10) Require that all judicial branch appointments be approved by both the Senate and the House of Representatives to better represent the American people.
      • GAO’s 2021 testimony confirms that President Joe Biden can still spend his $6+ trillion federal budgets, still no money (audit) trails, and no way for the American people to know how their tax dollars are spent, ditto for the 47th President (Donald Trump).
    • (12) Require an end to the legislative/executive branches’ 235 year “budgeting” policies that conveniently allows all accounting data to be deleted from the U.S. government’s books to illegally and unconstitutionally hide how America’s Presidents spend their citizen’s tax dollars,
    • (13) Eliminate Congress’ 4 executive branch offices that Congress’ 1978 Civil Service Reform Act created to protect whistleblowers but that both parties then used to eliminate those whistleblowers, and that includes the Merit Systems Protection Board, Office of Personnel Management, Office of Special Counsel, and Federal Labor Relations Board.
    • ​(14) Rescind Congress’ meaningless whistleblower protection legislation, and its meaningless 1883 Pendleton Act, 1978 CSRA, and 1989 Whistleblower Protection Act, that the last 7 Presidents have violated now for 46 years, with the full knowledge and consent of Congress, then covered-up by both parties’ politically controlled liberal and conservative media sources.
    • (16) Legally require political appointees to report their President’s lawless acts to the Department of Justice, or be held legally accountable for failing to do so, instead of writing their tell-all books, enrich themselves, and where those corrupt politicians (and those political appointees) are never held legally and financially accountable for their crimes.
    • (17) Legally require the loss of all book profits from political appointees who fail to report their President’s lawless acts, solely to enrich themselves.
    • (18) Amend the U.S. Constitution to prevent presidents from firing U.S. Attorneys for any political reason, other than their lawless and unconstitutional actions.
    • (19) Congress gets the same retirement and medical benefits as federal civil servants, no more, and no less.​
    • (20) Future Presidents, members of Congress, or any federally-employed manager can no longer hire family members,​ at any level.
    • (21) Rewrite the 1863 False Claims Act as it was in the days of Abraham Lincoln, and not the watered-down version as it is today where politicians are now in bed with both parties’ lobbyists and contractors, also no time frame for prosecuting corrupt contractors.
    • (22) Legally prevent civil servants from being furloughed for political reasons to prevent self-serving politicians from using federal civil servants as pawns in their never-ending political power struggles between all 3 “not so independent or democratic” branches of the U.S. government.
    • (23) Rescind all President’s pardon rights while in office or upon leaving office as it makes a mockery of the law and another power that Presidents should never have had.
