I believe that democracy is a participatory activity and:
- To be a healthy person, one has to attend to the health of one's community,
- City governments are created to serve their citizens,
- We do not have to choose between the environment and economics,
- Public moneys are for the greater public benefit and not for private profit or personal gain,
- It is not only the right of citizens to question their leaders, it is their responsibility.
The underlying principal of democracy and government is our First Amendment: Government shall take no action to prohibit the "freedom of speech, or of the press, or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances."
