11/3 homework

As Craig has already pointed out, the Psec Advisory Council mirrors the First Continental Congress. Psec is similar to Early America with its diversity (especially the middle colonies like New York and New Jersey, thank you Ben) and the strength of its community. In the upcoming elections, we face a different problem that the one Early Colonists did. I think if Psec was severely flawed, the situations would be more similar. Psec (in my view) is under no imminent threat, so I don’t quite see the connection there. But if it was, the power we hold as students, as members of a widely varied community is exactly the same. The leaders of the advisory council would speak for the mass, the people, the individual voice, which is exactly what the first Continental Congress did. They did not act of their own accord, they themselves deciding what was best for the masses, how could they? They would not be any better than the tyrannical English.
I think that Psec is great the way it is. If I saw some gaping defect, I would no doubt bring it up to someone. But I, in the synonym of the continental congress, am a happy citizen. I’m in no hurry to change the way things are run here, just because it’s possible. Students of Psec should not take for granted the fact that they can change things, and I don’t think they do.
