(this is reference material for the post immediately above)
Primary (Big Hairy Audacious) Goals:
G1 |
Healthy Communities, Healthy World, End to Suffering: Both physical and emotional health for all of Earth’s creatures; Well-being not Wealth |
G2 |
Stability & Diversity of All Life on Earth: Return to the law of limited competition (no destruction of creatures that eat the same food we do, or their food supply); Greatly reduced human population to allow a return to diversity of life on Earth |
Indirect (G3, G4) and By-Product (G5) Goals:
G3 |
Reduced Human Impact: Less use of land and natural resources by humans and human enterprises |
G4 |
Natural Habitats & Rights for Non-Humans : Restoration of most of Earth to natural ecosystems, to a state unimpacted or only marginally impacted by humans; Basic rights to life, freedom from persecution (other than for food), freedom from suffering, and an end to treatment as human ‘property’ |
G5 |
Peace, Security, Economic & Political Stability, and Emotional Health: All these long-time human goals would be achieved as a by-product of attaining Primary Goals G1-G2 above |
Technology & Innovation Projects:
T1 |
Self-Sufficiency Technologies & Innovations : Examples: Solar energy, advances that allow all communities to be energy self-sufficient; Other innovations that allow each community to supply and provide as many of its basic needs as possible (food, clothing, building materials, transport & communication), so that only luxuries need to be imported or exported outside the community |
T2 |
Anti-Aggression Technologies & Innovations : Therapies, herbs and pharmaceuticals that make humans less violent, since the aggressive impulses that we required for survival in our early evolution are no longer necessary, and are in fact destructive |
T3 |
Biological Technologies & Innovations : Within ethical limits (i.e. without exploiting any animal species for the benefit of another), development of pharmaceuticals & materials that reduce suffering of all life, or allow more to be done with less resources |
T4 |
Networked Computers & Collaborative Focus Group Solutions: Redeployment of computer power to develop additional solutions leading to attainment of Goals G1-G4; Use of the Internet and other collaborative communication tools to produce thought leadership and develop additional solutions cooperatively across disciplines |
T5 |
Anti-Polluter Technologies & Innovations : Development of online lists of polluters and tools that allow citizens to lobby for action against polluters and organize boycotts of offending companies |
T6 |
Anti-Fertility Technologies & Innovations : RU486 and other innovative technologies that reduce human fertility painlessly, equitably and, to the extent possible, voluntarily |
T7 |
Inter-Species Communication Technologies & Innovations: Linguistic and other technologies that aid in deciphering other animals’ communications and allowing us to communicate with them |
Social & Educational Projects:
S1 |
Re-learn How and Why Communities Work : Development & teaching to all ages of curricula that explain the logic and efficiency of community-based businesses, governments, schools, regulations, economic systems, and other institutions, compared to large, centralized organization models |
S2 |
Educate & Foment Dissatisfaction & Critical Thinking: Revamping education to make critical thinking the #1 core skill; Publishing magazines & books, and organizing groups to foster dissenting ideas and dissatisfaction with the existing political, economic, social and religious dogma that are causing our current crisis |
S3 |
Voluntary Food Production Reduction: Encouragement of programs to produce less human food as a means of stemming human overpopulation and excessive human land use (read Story of B for rationale for this) |
S4 |
Voluntary Fertility Reduction: Support for ZPG and other organizations leading the fight to get humans to reduce our population voluntarily |
Economic, Legal & Political Projects
P1 |
Anti-Waste and Anti-Pollution Laws & Taxes: Elimination of subsidies, revamping of regulations and tax laws in order to prohibit or tax waste, high resource use and pollution, and encourage clean, employment-producing and efficient businesses that promote reuse/reduce/recycle principles |
P2 |
Decentralization of Political and Economic Power: Banning of corporate involvement in the political process, including lobbying and political funding; Elimination of trade regulations and other laws that limit national & local governments’ ability to minimize environmental damage and exploitation of employees within their borders; Devolution of authority over land & resource use, industry, energy, health, education etc. to local community level, and allow taxpayers to vote on how they want their tax dollars allocated (which government departments and programs) when they pay their taxes |
P3 |
Laws & Taxes Limiting Human Food Production : Elimination of subsidies and enactment of laws and tax penalties to reduce food production levels to that needed to support the local community |
P4 |
Ban on Ecologically Damaging Technologies : Examples: nuclear plants, dams, animal testing procedures, some agricultural genetic engineering |
P5 |
Stringent Conservation Laws: Prohibition on taking more out of the land than is put back; Remediation of much of Earth to a ‘natural’ state free from significant human occupation or interference |
P6 |
Animal Rights Laws: Basic rights to life, freedom from persecution (other than for food), freedom from suffering, and an end to treatment as human ‘property’, for all Earth animals |

©THE MAJORITY VOTE SYSTEM.By ©W.C.Realph.I have structured a system of governing that all countries can incorporate into their governing system without the services of politicians or dictatorship. The majority vote system has been created for citizen of a country to govern all aspects of their country. This is the only common sense way to stop most wars, destruction of the environment, child slavery, the over-throw of democratically elected governments by other countries, corruption, pollution, collusion between businesses etc and politicians against the citizens by the media etc
