While I'm failing quite miserably at being able formulate my 'mind map' of myself in an easily digestible fashion (ie the only valid way to present it) as part 2 of my post https://blurt.blog/blurtlife/@lucylin/how-to-get-inside-a-super-model-and-finding-ways-to-enjoy-the-experience-part-1 )
.....I thought I might as well offer my input into really changing the world.
Yeah, I know - I said I was waaaaaaay too idle to do that, but it's something to do at the weekends I suppose.
Utopia – a Community or society possessing highly desirable or perfect qualities….
Live-able paradise – A community or society possessing enough desirable qualities to make life very good.
Decentralization is needed !
Global Decentralization !!!!!!!!
We already have this – they're called countries.
There is NO better global decentralization than countries.
Perfect ?
No…but it is what it is, and where are, where we are - so we have to work with it.
Any talk of a ‘border-less world’ is actually a desire for a more centralized world.
A borderless world is a desire for centralized control. (whether you realize this consciously or not).
How about a passport-less world instead?
'Passport required travel' is a relativity recent phenomenon, going back a century or just over - but still very recent.
Before that, people were free to travel across borders without the need to notify governments (for government, read ‘administrative beurocracy’).
...And here's the answer to most problems....
TTOTS – Transaction Tax on Tangibles and Services.
Imagine that?
No other tax.
A 2% transactions tax on everything ,to fund the ongoing functions of the administrative bureaucracy.
If I remember correctly, in the UK, (which is heavy on ‘financial services’), a transaction tax of less than 1% would raise the same revenue as income tax, council tax, and corporation combined.
*(it’s been while since I went down that particular rabbit hole, and this post isn’t about the facts and figures, specifically - it’s about ‘the model’, so the % numbers may not be accurate).
One of the reasons why I came to the conclusion that this is a single answer to so many problems...
...the bank of England, corporations, the fed res, and media like the finacial times etc..in regard to a transaction tax - they fucking HATE the idea....
Imagine a 'passport free world of countries', without a need for government approval or oversight....
'Economic migration' has been happening for millennia -it's been an economic reality previously - not the social engineering for political power or the attempted realizations of an ideology - the very things we see in abundance in in today's politics.
Imagine a world with one simple system of 'transaction tax'.
Everyone pays the same tax to maintain an acceptable level of government administration.
Economics would determine a countries validity.
Nothing more.
If it was efficient, it would be an attractive place to be, and if it was corrupt, it wouldn’t (due to exorbitant to cost of maintaining any corrupt system).
All through just using a transaction tax.
No corporate shenanigans (impossible with a transaction tax – everyone pays the same rate).
No indiscriminate spending and grift via the military/pharmaceuticals/lobbying, complexes.
Block chain technology is a gift in this regard – every penny that’s spent in raised taxes in a country could be tracked Public money raised through the transaction tax = 100% transparency).
The same with voting.
Yes, there a 100 different variables come up
(who can vote? Residents? Or anyone within that territory at the time of voting? etc)…
It’s not important in terms of this post - this is about the model - the principal. .
KISS Keeping it simple, stupid .
If ‘the devil is in the detail’ (a one liner which I believe to be very true) then all it requires is a structure that eliminates the need for lots of details.
‘The devil’, will never be able to get a hold.
Massive government bureaucracy and it’s forever spiraling costs can be pretty much eliminated with a transaction tax and free movement across borders.
If taxes need to be increased in an administrative area called
....the blockchain, public scrutiny 100% transparency + economics - will stop institutional corruption it in it’s tracks (via population movements to other countries).
OR...the population will support the increase in tax .
K.I.S.S
Imagine that ….
Perfect ?
NO.
Perfection is utopia, and utopia doesn’t exist - it’s a vision – an easy lie that's intended for those of low IQ , sold to them by the clever manipulators and those hungry for power and control over others.
It’s a snakeskin oil salesman trying to persuade the brain dead to support their own suicide, via serfdom .
The soros’s, (open society foundations), the rockelfellers, UN , NATO...blah blah - all the same snake....
We don’t need more rules, we need less.
Transaction tax fixes that.
….I’m not even going into currencies, fiat, crypto ect.
There’s no need to.
Why?...
Because transaction tax fixes these issues by the very function of the model itself.
Each decentralized administrative area ....
....and each with their own sovereign currency and central bank for that area + transaction tax's only + block chain transparency = a forced efficiency of government.
KISS – Keep It Simple, Stupid
Why?
Because simplicity is the enemy of the manipulator and power hungry control freak. (aka 'the devil').
Complexity is in the detail, and we all know where the devil lives…see the forever expanding laws, rules, regulations and taxes – in every country - as proof.
The free market will take care of the rest.
Paradoxically, the free market is unbelievably strong, and unbelievably fragile.
Strong - because it ensures efficiency and the redistribution of wealth to those best suited to handle it.
Fragile - because all it takes is a convincing word salad from the mouth of a corrupt snakeskin oil salesman, to screw it up.
Transaction tax and the structure outlined above (especially blockchain technology) – prevents the manipulator using word salads to convince anyone - of anything.
The truth is in the block chain.
Ok, that’s my input to changing the world ....!
K.I.S.S
Utopia doesn’t exist, but a peaceful world that limits large scale fraud via a standard transaction tax in each decentralized area...
......and with a freedom of movement with no governmental oversight , and in conjunction with block chain transparency on (gvmnts spending) , means no corporatism or excessive socialism.
No frivolous spending without consequences*.
*You want to be a government bureaucrat ?..You forfeit your own assets if you fuck it up -found guilty of any grift, nepotism, etc...
It is -realistically - possible.
K.I.S.S…and a live able paradise for everyone, becomes so much closer.
Oh yeah, and fuck Joe Biden ( and anyone else wanting to control others)…
Now, my uber intelligent readers - go forth and blow some gaping holes in this post , and it's argument s...
…PLEASE !
Your to kind to the state government " country " with that transaction tax thing , ..be careful now , for they might add that tax to the existing robbery they already do .
Do like the free travel across borders , but i am more for decentralizing at a smaller level , one world , not one government , decentralized local community's made up by individual privateers ,... No more governments means , no more country borders , no more army's ,.. and at least , no more proxy war's .
And no tax whatsoever to pay is a big positive to ,... go build your own roads . ;-)
War kills , trade keeps alive ,.. one world , one love ,.. peace to all .
...it's an either/or proposition - anything else would just be a continuation of govmnt grift.
decentralization to smaller and smaller countries could happen - or not - dependent entirely on the free market mechanisms that will run through all the different geographical areas.
(country A has a 10% transaction tax, and an area in country A decides it can run it's affairs within that location with 5% transaction tax....economic osmosis and social values will decide the outcome. It's about the lack of rules under one umbrella of principal - not more rules , creating complexity)
Governments are an extension social hierarchy - which will never go away, (irrelevant of whether we idealistically 'like it' or not.)
Accepting they are a thing is the first step to keeping in them inline. (as opposed to hopium and idealism)
Transaction tax and block chain can do this.
So a system where you only pay tax during a transaction . Like when you get your monthly pay for your work done , or when you pay for a bread . And only 5 to 10% tax ,.. sounds tempting . But what do we pay this tax for ? A army to protect the borders ? a police force running around punishing people for crime-less crimes ? ,... while they only really need to maintain the sewer system and some of the infrastructure . So i propose to stop using the term government for this system , something like maintenance and shit control unit , M.A.S.C.U. for short will do .
Then i wonder , when i trade my tomato's for banana's ,.. do i pay the tax then in banana's or tomato's ? ,... or apples maybe ?
;-)
...it was about 6 years ago I first looked at this transaction tax.
If memory serves me correctly - the funding at the time for government expenditure meant less than a 1% transaction tax!
If the main costs were utility infrastructure, funded local judicial system and local public order (local police for local areas only), I recon the tax rate would be massively less ...
Nobody needs police, private security of local people yes, the right to stop people NO, the right to solve crime YES, the right to prevent violence YES, but not the right to pursue victimless crimes, no victim no crime.
Local people doing security makes them accountable to local people.
I agree.
You have a good point ,... still i detect some need for hopium and idealism to ever get a system like you proposed in to place . ;-)
I see no need for local police other then people having the right to protect their own private property . We don't need a clan off armed men for that , or to check us constantly , while traveling on public streets , for crime-less crimes and bullshit bogus rules that "people" always come up with .
Nah , ill trade some banana's for apple's , or take @ajerkoff his self made copper freedom coin's ,.. even when he makes tin ones ill take em ,.. so at least i can hang on to the bronze age , pour me some sizzles to hack rocks and build me some pyramid's .
In a perfect world , transaction tax could work yes ,... it's what some still think about communism to ,.. but the world will never be perfect , so we might as well choose to be peaceful agorist's and be free , and be ready to fight for it ,... until death .
Anarchy , no rulers ,.. total destruction ,.. seems the only solution ,... am i a domestic terrorist now ? ,.. for having these thought's ?
I do not consent or interfere , i watch it crumble and collapse by it's-self .
Aware that ill have to survive in the ruin's that it will leave , i am just getting ready for the darkest days to come .
;-)
Simplicity is king. Love it. I'd vote for that. You nailed it with the 'devil's in the details' too.
Well don't be voting for me !...Ewwwwwwwww....
No I won't, coz I don't consent to being governed by anyone.
.....now i'm getting paranoid about my reply vis-a vis my 'don't be an intensive cow', because you never answered...bugger...
(... read the other replies below it - i was only joking!) ...and now feeling like I have to explain myself (to you!)
.
I have officially reached a low point in my life....
Oh blimey sorry but I really have skin of a rhino, am used to mixing with the boys and their banter. Very few things bother me, except physical cruelty. Sticks n stones and all that. I was busy playing in me new polytunnel hahahaha
If you could please advise me in advance of when you are no longer going to to be looking at replies, and going off to play, that'd be great ! lol
Take it as given, I take my time looking at replies, I'm busy trying to feed the starving zombies........
Good !....bloody hell, was I sweating with that kind of responsibility
Nice keep it up.
