SPENDING MORE WITH DECLINING EXPECTATIONS
U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres
If people don’t weigh in and set the agenda for government, who sets the agenda?
OWN YOUR GOVERNMENT IS A WAY PEOPLE CAN SET THE AGENDA
Global problems are solved in communities.
Individual opportunity in livable communities is the path to global sustainable civilization. Communities need a structure that supports their accesss to talent resources with gateways into global markets.
Own Your Government may be the most important US export. It provides a platform that conforms to local customs, while offering funding and technological support for healthcare, industry, communication and emergency response.
ONBOARDING begins with deployment of a community platform instance and a workshop led by facilitators trained in a multi-disciplined curriculum. Participants download the app or use a browser to tailor a unique platform for their needs.

Wealth and power are related. We can do little about climate sensitivity of places where we live. Sometimes, we can only prepare for rain, cold, heat, flood, drought, etc. But we need resources. We need money, materials and technology, whether to plant crops, write code, rebuild homes or build our towns on safe higher ground.
OYG platforms create the access to money and resources we need and allow us to take advantage of our collective wealth and power.

An OYG supported community is a self-identifying geographic part of a city, region, state or nation. Residents log into a community's OYG platform with a smart phone or browser. Neighborhood OYG affiliates may provide cost-free smartphones or tablets.
A community's OYG platform exists as encrypted data in redundant servers, with strong privacy protection of personal information, voting data and outcome of polls, using security procedures equal to financial institutions.
Every registered member on a community platform may post a poll to the community. When responses to the poll reach a statistically relevant threshhold, consensus is reported to media, and government officials.
OPTIMIZED FOR POLITICAL EMPOWERMENT AND CONNECTION
One person’s voice has little chance of producing action.
50 people waving signs and shouting get media attention.
OYG shows consensus of thousands, returning power and responsibility to the people.
