Governance

-Religion-

There are two responsibilities in a nation the right of the governed and the responsibilities of the rulers. These two responsibilities are not separated but are linked in the union of a solidified or growing nation. Some of these rights granted to the people are as follows. The right for the people to know what their government is doing with in reason. The right to the people to have their costumes and religions protected by law. It is also the right of the people to be allowed to defend themselves against thous who threaten their customs and religion. If the religion of one says specifically destroy another then the religion that threatens and seeks the destruction of another should be eradicated. For the right of the people who are of the other is to rebel against and eliminate said religion. It is also the duty of the governance to hear and act when the concerns of said religious groups actively being threatened by another. It is the responsibility of the ruling body to respect and protect the rights of the people. The ruling body is expected to make decisions on not what people want but on the needs of the people. It is the obligation of the ruling body, them being the one who are elected to rule, is to pass laws that benefit the general welfare of the those they govern. In exchange the people are under the social obligation to follow the laws if they are not repressive. If a law represses a group for example a jiziah is enforced by the Muslim governance apoun a minority religion like Christianity, then it is the obligation of either the populace or the neighboring nations to eradicate said government. The reason for this is that if a way of repression is allowed to continue, weather in a religiously back government or a government who favors one group over the other, the ideology of repression becomes the norm of the religious. This then leads to either division within the religion or resentment from others. The resentment of others then leads to laws being passed which limits the rights of those who adhere to the religious. If the religion who's adherence are in the majority and there is a lack of public out cry to laws based on the repressive aspects of that religion then the minority has every right to do as much damage to the people who are in power.

-Elitism-

The government should not elevate one group over the other or grant more protection or less protection to one group. Doing so justifies the action of said group regardless of weather or not they are good or bad. The elevation of group through specific protection leads to the creation of an elite and establishment of the lower classes based on said system. To do so is against the civil agreement between the citizenry and the ruling body.

-Duty of the Governing Body-

The governing body of any nation should be given their power through election of the people. The placing of a group of people in a position of power then creates a social agreement between the governing body and those that they rule. Those that rule have a specific duty to those they rule over due to the fact that they have made a contractual agreement with said people which allows them to dictates what one does in their daily lives. Some of these mandatory obligations are as follows.

-The duty to consult the general populace on major issues such as those that pertain to the rights of the governed.

-The duty to pass laws that elevate the general welfare of the populace. This pertains to education health, military protection, housing, food, water, and elegy.

-The duty to abide to social contract such as a constitution and to uphold a provision of rights regardless of what the populace thinks.

-The duty to leave office once said time frame has been fulfilled or when the populace or governing body has asked said politician to leave.

-The Responsibility of the People-

-The responsibility of the people is to adhere to the laws if they are not to repressive.

-The responsibility of the people to voice their concerns to those that hold power.

-The responsibility of the people to be civil in their descent of the governance.

-The responsibility to act responsibly when exercising their bill of rights so as to not cause action by the governance to limit them.

-Construction of Government and fulfillment of peoples needs-

The construction of any government should be established through public agreement. This public agreement should include a social contract between the elected body and the ruled. The social contract should be a simple bill of rights that insures the protection of the minority from the majority and the majority from the minority. This protection should come from a system based on elected officials who are in power for a contracted period of time, IE a term limit. Below is a diagram of how the power structure of a government should be constructed.

The senate should represent a state or region on a national level with three representatives regardless of population. On the state level it should be the same in regards to county and district. The term limit should be two terms four years long. The house of representatives should represent the state and counties with five representatives regardless of population with a term limit like that of the senate.

-Construction of a Social Contract-

A social contract is created when an agreed apoun set of ideas is established between the ruled and the rulers. Social contracts at the beginning of mankind ascent from hunter gathers to an agrarian based based society were inferred social contracts based on the establishment of security by the ruled in exchange for food and other items essential for the protection of said security. In the early kingdoms of the Tigers and Euphrates river valley the rule of Sargon was based on this kind of social contract. This contract however was enforced by Sargon as a totalitarian dictatorship which lead to the fall of the Aecadian empire. One reason for this was because Sargon feed he's army through the plundering of the city states he just conquered. This lead to the supporting of raiders form the Zargros mountains and backing of the dynastic linage of said people. This kind of establishment is known as an imposed establishment and hinges on the strength of the military. The social contract established by this imposed or inferred contract is based on the tolerance of the people within the area and the neighboring states.

In caliphates, dictatorships, and tyrannies contracts inferred by the ruled and the ruler is “What has been imposed on me by you will benefit my safety and the safety of my offspring.” or “I will tolerate your tryanny because it elevates the society as a whole”. In these situations often the agreed ruled for exchange of safety against others turns into a situation of agreed rule based on the safety of the society from the ruler. In these situation the authoritative rule as proposed by MoTsu which is established in order to benefit the people and the nation is replaced by totalitarian rule. This then leads to the descent of the people and lack of defense by said populace when the enemy of the nation invades. A social contract should be based on an agreed set of ideas or on the cultural customs that have proven to benefit society. In modern cultures agreed apoun rulers are the best for a social contract where as more traditional societies should be based on the latter.

A modern social contract should have established civil liberates these civil liberties are there to ensure that the populace is not fully repressed by the ruling body. The bill of rights as established by the constitution of the United States of America was created in order to establish three particular idea; one that the ruled are not lower than the ruler, two every citizen of the nation has several rights that should not be infringed apoun and three a checklist of realities that if taken away should lead to organized rebellion or some significant change in the government.

A bill of rights should have these things:

1. The right to bare arms (weapons).
2. The right to percure arms.
3. The right to manufacture arms.
4. The right to assembel peacefully.
5. The right to protest the government or ruling body.
6. Freedom of press.
7. The freedom to exercise ones religion without fear of repression by government or populace.
8. The right to vote and to not vote.
9. The freedom from enslavement either by house or by state.
10. The right to denie enterance into personal property or a buisness.
11. The right to a fair trial.
12. The right to a lawyer.
13. The right to voice ones opinion publicly and privately.
14. The right to be protected from crime.
15. The right to be petition the government.
16. The right to be educated.
17. The right to know what the government or ruling body is doing.
18. The right to form a malitia for the civil defence of the populace and nation.
19. The right to percure land and property regardless of ones race, bloodline or religion.
20. The right to protest a private organization.
21. The right to form a political party.
22. The right to retain or reaquire property after is has been taken due to a legal cause unless the write of law says it's illegal to own.
23. The right to have evidence presented to one apoun encarseration.
24. The right to have acess to evidence presented under supervision during a arrest.
25. The right to have acess to evidence presented under supervision during trial.
26. The right to protect an individuals identity in public, private, or in government setting such as a trial.
27. The right to know what one is being accussed of apoun arrest.
28. The right to have acess to a warrant apoun arrest.
29. The right to privacy in affairs and property.
30. Protection from religious laws and taxation based on religious laws.
31. The right to fair trade.
32. The right to reasonable working shedual, wage, and safe and sanitary working conditions.
33. The right to move to impeach a government officail by populace vote.
34. The right to not quarter army navy or airforce personel in peace and war time.
35. One can not be put on trail without their persons being present.
36. The right to a retrial with a new set of judges up to seventeen times.

Number thirty three the populace vote will be called an act of initiation to impeach in which it passes to the congress. If there is a populace vote to impeach the government official the congress must obey the populace and vote either yeah or nah to impeach.

A social contract such as this is known as an established social contract in which there is either a written or vocal agreement between the ruling body and the ruled. These contracts are usually established after a revaluation or revolt in which the ruled are in need of either placation or need some sort of social and economic change. In order construct a social contract one or a group should have a basic understanding of what one or a group wants. These rights should be established with the wisdom of hindsight and the projection of foresight. Hindsight on what historically has worked and foresight based on what will work for the benefit of the people and government.

-Law-

What has worked in the past that's benefit the whole and what hasn't worked in the past that's been detrimental to the whole should be taken into consideration when law is brought into question. Law is not civil liberties and civil liberties are not law. Laws are a group of agreed apoun ideas and concepts created to protect and promote a civilized society. In on other words laws are to protect or ensure some sort of order where as civil liberties are their to keep people free. Morals often influence laws, morals are a group of ideas and concept that also promote safety of people but in a different way. Law has to do with the promotion of the whole based on the physical understanding of the world were as morals have to do with the psychological and spiritual understanding of the mind in order to protect the whole. For example adulatory although not illegal in laws of the state leads to envy of the spouse and mistrust with in the family. Envy leads to the spouse to make the wrong decisions and commit a violent offence against the other. Mistrust in the family leads to a household were the children are more apt to be juvenile deliquesce. An other example of difference between moral and law is prostitution. The act of prostitution and the social stigma is a moral issue and the laws past on the act of prostitution are moral. Were as laws that regulate prostitution such as were a prostitute is allowed to work, the hours of said worker and wage limits are law.

Laws should be created for one of three reasons, one to protect the populace, two to ensure the economic success of a nation and three to protect from catastrophe. If laws are reasonable they should be followed. If not then the laws should be changed within the established system. If the system of governance has become unreasonable the it is the duty of the people to change the government so laws can be passed with the idea of the three intended purposes.

Some laws that should exist in a government and society should be

1. No murder
2. No rape
3. No theft
4. That underage sex should be illigal.
5. If one has committed a crime before a law has been passed that they are not subject to incarceration.
6. If one has accused a person or persons of a crime and have lied about the crime the person who has lied should be put on trial.
7. Some one cannot accuse another to initiate a trial on behalf of someone else.

-Justice system-

In a civilized society the application of law is back by two groups the enforcers and the legal system. The enforcers make sure that laws are either being followed or that the populace are not subjecting others of the populace. If one is arrested for disobeying or violating the law their should be a legal system in order to ensure that one is not found guilty of a crime they did not commit. In the world there are various legal systems. A fair legal system is based on the lack of personal knowledge of the plaintiff and the defendant. A fair legal system is not one based on the unbiased opinion of the peers but the unbiased judgment of the judge. A legal system should be innocent until proven guilty and a trail between the plaintiff, the defendant and their respected lawyers who have to prove or disprove charges in front of a body of judges. A trail should at most be allowed to continue for five to nine years and the body of judges should be based on experience in particular cases. The judges should be questioned by a county supervisor as to how well they know the defendant or plaintiff. The defendant is allowed to choose between three, five, seven and nine judges. A number of judges that is divided evenly in two is not an option. The verdict and punishment is decided by the said judges. The reason for lack of a jury is to ensure that the verdict is unbiased. Juries are often drawn in from a local populace which allows for a biased opinion of the either the plaintiff or defendant.

-Economics-

Economics is established in order for one group to gain what they either want or need through trade. An economic system develops either out of profit or out of need. The economic system known as capitalism is a system of trade between two or more parties that are independent of each other in order to gain profit or some sort of need. Were as the economic system of communism is based on the collection of wealth from independent groups and the redistribution of wealth to the whole. Communism is an economic system based on the idea that when the wealth is collected and redistributed that the whole is elevated on a more even scale. However there is also a capitalistic thread in communism which is based on the act of selling the collected wealth in order to garner a higher economic gain for the community. This system leads to the rise of authoritative dictators for if communism in the manner as stated above is to work the nation becomes the company and the wealth of the nation becomes it's product. In impoverished countries communism arises as the answer to poverty for the collectivization and redistribution of wealth is needed so people can survive. Capitalism arises from both want and need usually when a community has established a foundation of living such as a farm, ranch or some other means of gaining the necessities of life. In a pure capitalistic society only those that have established a foundation to trade and those hired by said communities will have the benefit of wealth and the higher of standard of living that comes with it. A nation which taxes the wealth from the foundation of living will never be purely capitalistic if the social contract dictates that the wealth of the taxation is redistributed to agreed apoun areas then it has become a form of communism.

If communism has been determined to be the best system for the people then a policy of the most qualified should be implemented and a system of it is not broken don't fix it, should also be taken into consideration. The most qualified and most successful farmer should be employed by the government to elevate the farms. The most qualified and successful industrialist should be employed to elevate the industrial system and the most qualified and successful teachers should be employed to elevate the education of the populace. If there is market system or business that is successful it should be left alone but if said company does not follow basic civil laws of labor such as a reasonable work time and working conditions then they should be shut down and given over to the state.

-Government and Economy-

A government should provide for the basic needs of those that they rule over given the fact that those who are selected either through election, inheritance or a power struggle have some sort of control over a peoples daily life. This control is usually through taxation, the ruling over through law and the participation in the military. When establishing what the needs would be that said governance are to provide they must look around and ask what does the populace need to have a better life. When that question is answered ask how is the government going to provide for such needs the answer to some would be taxation there is however two other options. Business and collection of wealth. The first is easy to explain the government establishes businesses that then sell their product either to the general populace of said nation or on the international market. The second is to collect the wealth as a kind of tax that is then redistributed or sold. The money from either the business or collected wealth is utilized to fulfill said needs. Here is an example of how this would work, the people of a nation need healthcare and education so the government decides that in order to provide for this need they will sale diesel at a lower price than the private competitors. They, the government, will then take the profit and distribute it between the cost of doing business and the cost of healthcare. However there is a problem the government doesn't have the money to cover the cost of the oil rig and refinery. They have determined that a loan is out of the question so they sale a weapons system. The money is used to cover the cost of rig and refinery. The diesel is sold at one dollar and fifty cents were as the current market price is three dollars and twenty-five cents this leads to the undercutting of the market. Once the government has the money to provide for the need the money should go directly into the need. Which in this case would be health care. The education should be provided on an other economy like agriculture or manufacture in conjunction with minor taxation. A graphic below shows the concept.

If this is the desired method method of paying for a nations need then starting a business based on multiplicity is desirable. Instead of the nations wealth established on one economy a nations wealth should be established on multiple economies such as agriculture, energy, manufacturing and technology. This concept should be applied to the local level first in order to build multiple economic sources. When creating said economy on a local level one must find which economies already exist and what will work and what won't work. For example an area situated in the Nevada foot hills may be good for ranching, lumber and manufacturing but may not be suitable for growing cotton. The government should then base the economy on lumber, ranching, and manufacturing. If agriculture works for an area base the farming system on what is already grown their. Utilize the help of the farmers that have the highest yielding crop either as advisers or as the head of the agricultural department.

-Security-

Security from external and internal opposition should be off the primary forces of the federal government. Security entails police, border security, naval security, air and land. Although these securities are the basic essential of any successful nation so is the allowance for individuals of a nation to form their own security units for the protection of their country. This includes the right to own a weapon and the right to form a militia. In a nation were these rights are granted it would be sound advice for the ruling body to utilize a militia system in conjunction with a standard military, The standing military should be utilized were they are most needed regardless of were the area of conflict is located. The militia unless dictum allows, should be utilized on a home defense capacity. When at war of in conflict information on allies and rules of combat should be distributed to said militias. This is to ensure a uniform understanding and policy between the official and non official military. War in this way should follow these protocols.

-Official declaration of war.

-Time in which conflict will begin.

-Where the conflict will take place.

-The naming of combatant.

-Establishment of rules of engagement.

-Distribution of rules of engagement to army personal.

-Request of specific militias to join in conflict zones followed by an establishment of contract.

-Distribution of rules of engagement to militias and public.

-Objectives of conflict which should be reserved for combat personnel.

When a conflict has ended an official statement has to be issued to militias in conflict zones to cease and dissent of aggregations towards enemy combatant. The government should also establish a policy in the fulfillment of post war obligations such as replacement and rebuilding of destroyed areas.

Revaluation

When one is on the war path of revaluation one must not only think of the destruction of the society that the revaluation lives in. If one only thinks in this manner they are not forming a revaluation they have formed a rebellion. Therefor the individual or group who seeks revaluation must have an order to replace the existing one. If one only obliterates the pillar but does not replace the pillar the house falls leaving a pile of destruction that has to be repaired or rebuilt.

-The Microcosm-

Revaluations often happen as large movements that encompass large amounts of country or territory. These revaluations although they are widespread may not be as successful in the long term due to the fact that it encompasses large amount territory and negates certain localized groups of people or politics. In areas like China and India were the ethnic and political diaspora is varied and the cultural diaspora is also varied. Revaluations such as the Maoist revaluation of the nineteen twenties ultimately failed due to the fact that it was conducted by a small ethic group on the coastal plains of China who were addressing issue that may or may not have applied to other areas of China such as the Muslim majority Tamin Basin or the Buddhist majority region of southern China. Other revaluations such as Mahat Magandis march to the sea were also a failure do to the fact that it did not consider the microcosm of areas in India such as the seven regions of north eastern India that have throughout their history fought several revolts against Indian and non Indian powers. Due to these failures to consider the microcosm violence after independence from Great Britain erupted in said regions of India. The most recent one being the ULFA revolt of the nineteen nineties. If the independence movement had considered the microcosm they would have had a policy specifically geared towards said region. In the case of China a more successful policy of semi beging neglect was applied to the Tamin reigion were as the take over of Tibet has led to several border conflicts with Nepal.

If one wants a successful revaluation start with the microcosm usually in a community that has some sort of local attainable goal that could be used as a stable foundation stone for bigger and better things. For example the Kurdish of northern Iraq and Syria are a microcosm of ethnic, religious and political difference from greater Syria and Iraq. The Kurdish have a different language different view of religion based on synchronization rather than supplant and a political view more aligned with democracy. The United States supported the Kurdish of Iraq which became a stable region in the onsueing destabilization of Iraq and Syria caused by militaristic infighting and Islamic terrorism.

-Consent of the populace and Stratification-

Revaluations in the short and long term fail without the consent of the whole either in spirit or in action. In the past revaluations such as the Bolshevik revaluation of the nineteen hundreds the failure happened in the long term. This was due to the loss of consent based on the treatment of the segments of the populace that did not agree with the party or stifling of rights of the populace. When the party was instilled into power the policies of the party weakened the original foundations on which why people joined. The original anger of the revolutionist was replaced, due to policy, with sympathy and fear. If a revaluation wishes to be successful the revolutionist needs a garentee of stability without fear in coordination with a mentality of the revolutionist being the enemy is only my enemy when they fight me with bullets or when they subject me with law.

As in any society revaluations are usually started by the few, in order for the few to become many the few has to garentee that their revaluation will not only benefit the whole but also keep the whole away from the system that they had replaced. This in coordination with a grantee of basic civil liberties are secure will not only gain more members but also keep members. This garentee has to be based on not repressing contradicting ideas of future members but seeing how they can coexist or bolster the revaluation. For example if a member or many members has Islamophobic sentiment one must not totally spurn the group but see why one is Islamophobic and how it can benefit the revaluation. Most Islamophobia is in reality the people being in opposition to the ideas of Islam pertaining to the allowing of slavery, the killing of thous with varying beliefs, and the promotion of polygamy. All of which are explicit stated as an “okay thumbs up go right ahead guys” by a god who is neither all powerful or wise. These ideas have been seen in history, past and present, as the cause of unneeded suffering to the human populace. With this in mind the deamonization of Islamophobes and creating laws within countries and revolutionary groups to protect Muslims leads to said group to be pushed into the opposition and the accepting of more radical ideas. By granting protections of said group also leads to the allowance of mentioned allowance of said group.

This leads to a stratification within the group and eventually a class division when the revaluation becomes successful. This was no more apparent then in the revaluation of the English colonies of New England in which a protection was granted to slave owners. Although it was not stated explicitly in an official rhetoric the benign neglect of generals and soldiers alike lead to the creation of slave laws that protected the rights of slave owner, laws such as the three fifths compromise and later on laws that protected slavery in the southern part of the United States. These creation of stratification by law and outlook of the original revolutionaries lead to a civil war which disrupted the stability during the war in the north states and created extreme poverty in the southern states. This extreme poverty lead to the creation and growth of the Ku Klux Klan which reeked terror on the black, catholic and Jewish populations in the southern states to this day. With this in mind a revaluation should not grant special protection to anyone in regrades to their religious or moral ideas of the those who are against them. In the example of Islamophobia laws as a protection of Muslims inevitably leading to a division and cause a civil war. By not allowing or hearing the reasoning behind a supposed subversive idea it will inevitable lead to a civil war or the eventually destruction of the newly established regime. In order for the revaluation to be successful one must either change the rhetoric of the revaluation so that said subversive ideas are respected and not repressed or not allow ideas that have been shown to cause suffering into the fold.

-End-

All nations and peoples are entitled to rights and responsibility they are also entitled to rebel and form a more perfect union when the government that they have lived under has become corrupted and the people enslaved. In order for their struggle to be successful thous who fight in revaluation should establish a pillar so that all may see that their nation is strong.
