1. Organize Community Rights Teams
2. Teams organize local communities & towns with bi-laws & ordinances as below
3. Encourage visiting to help populate sparsely populated areas: each community provide guest space for visitors(CELDF.org can help with wording ordinances.)
Government is moral, if it is self-government and if it is not abusive.
Ideas to Improve Legitimate Local GovernmentIf libertarians (or other antiauthoritarians) get elected to local office, here are some proposals I have for local "laws".
1a-
Share Government Property. Make all local Residents co-owners of local government property, tax-free. Let residents organize businesses on this property tax-free with profits shared fairly among all residents, thus providing earned income for all.
1b-
Buy in Bulk. Local government help local Residents buy goods wholesale to increase Residents' buying power.
2-
Increase Proper Law Enforcement. Deputize all local residents without pay, who have committed no major crimes, because all residents have the right to enforce constitutional law.
3a-
End Frivolous Prosecution. Do not prosecute "illegal" drug users; just prosecute violent people; and promote recovery programs for addicts (like WA's LEAD program).
3b-
Protect Residents from corrupt government by preventing state or federal officers from prosecuting local residents for:
--- 1. tax "evasion";
--- 2. driving without license or insurance;
--- 3. "illegal" drug use;
--- 4. other victimless "crimes".
3c-
Prevent Government Corruption. Put security cameras on all major public officials and on all prison guards and inmates, to be used against corruption and abuse. Use honest Scientific Method to perfect corruption prevention.
3d-
Develop Proper Science. Develop proper scientific method to prevent corruption in science and use clean science findings to promote liberty for all and end government corruption.
3e-
Reform the Ruling Class. Use progressive teaching & parenting methods to reform the ruling class to reduce their fears of poverty, reduce class pride and increase caring and cooperation.
3f-
Mediation: Favor mediation over court.
4-
Improve Public Health. Have a health department to promote good health to residents and to counter false health propaganda.
5a-
End Taxes. Try CAFR1.com etc to end taxation. See #5b also.
5b-
Start Local Government Banks. End taxes by starting local government banks which charge interest on loans, which would be used by local governments instead of taxes. See my Feb 9 message below.
6-
Improve Elections. Request candidates for public office take polygraph tests to confirm that they are not crooks and will not seek profit from office beyond what the average citizen receives.
7-
Make Schooling Free, Not Compulsory. Allow students to learn what they want starting at an early age, without having to take tests and without being forced to get vaccinated.
8-
Start a Town. Like-minded people can collaborate to start a town, then they can pass ordinances like the above.
9-
Prevent Poverty. Try Michael Hudson's Economics, minimum wage job guarantee, etc.
10-
Ecology; Antidesertification. Promote Savory's Anti-desertification, Organic Farming, permaculture, etc, to improve the land for present and future generations.
The Constitution is said to be the supreme law of the nation, but corporate governments seem to like to deny that.
Most governments in the U.S. have become incorporated, apparently. It would be good for some of us to learn the law and the history of corporate government.
