The
ideal government is NOT fixed based upon rigid 'rules' or 'laws'
there being NO such fixed points in natural reality. But is instead
based upon the character of the People at hand. Each is unique and
thus they erect a unique, society, economy, and then polity that
reflects their whole and integral personage as one National-State.
Our sense is that in the Anglo-Sphere and perhaps much of Western
Europe that something like the Swiss Landerser, Icelandic Thang, or
even New England Townhall system is not unnatural to the people's
temperaments nor unwieldy to their main need which is to ensure
strong stable families so as to ensure control over territory in
which to raise the children of those families into the culture,
history and general common existence of the People.
In
any event no matter what the mechanics of power in the social order,
there will be hierarchy because men are NOT functionally equal. In
the ideal state the society is tuned such that 'honor' and 'service'
are one. United in the common mind such that 'station' and 'rank'
imply duty to the commonality in the same manner that a Father has
duties to his wife and children, so does each and everyone have
duties to the People in proportion to his ability to perform service.
The diagram at the right visually outlines this.
The
ideal is that the Working Class are the base of the Organic Society.
They are the solid foundations and their integral strength is what
holds up the rest of the construction. This must be respected and at
times action taken to repair and reinforce this base.
From
this starting point, those with a bit more ability go up a step but
while they do in fact have more rewards, which is just, they also
have more loyalty and service expected from them to those both above
and below them.
The
'upper class' or the ruling elite, have the same basic concept
applied to them and have again more rewards but are expected to
ensure that those they rule over are given justice, and allowed the
means to prosper. The exact ends used are frankly not very
important. Just so that the fundamentals that underlay it are solid
the rest will work itself out to the general well being of the WHOLE
and this will tend over time to work to the general advantage of the
parts.
What
is important is WHAT basis the state is founded upon. Liberal States
are just occupational forces used by the oligarchy to thumb down the
commons.
A
proper National-State is on the other hand the Expression of the
commons basic character. Liberal Modernity assumes 'equality' while
the Organic Society is predicated upon the natural and truly UNIQUE
history and character of each and every people, and thus unlike
liberalism we have NO dogmatic assertions to make about this or that
particular, administrative forms or procedures.
We
do not assume that there is ONE universal good form of government as
we reject the idea of there being one universal 'humanity'. What is
good for ours is good for Us and Us alone.
Be
this how it may, in the Western World the county and department
system is mixed with a municipality system, which are established by
long usage as the base unit of the political system.
These
should in any functional system ideally be kept as the 'units' of the
larger polity much as the family is treated as the unit of the people, for social and political purposes.
The
reason for keeping this or that form here and there is to ensure the
least amount of sharp break from the past, and to ensure the most
amount of familiarity with the new system from the outset.
At
the left is our basic outline of authority and power. The People are
the base of the polity and the source from which all sovereign power
rightfully derives.
Their
well being is the highest law.
The
People through the natural relations that form families, and communities diffuse themselves into what can be called counties or
districts if you will.
These
are the primary political unit, as this will be the unit that will
have purview of the local business, production and economy that is
vital to the organic societies functioning.
First
Principles:
Ideas
are the central force in human history, not matter, not modes of
production, which are only the material upon and the means by which
human ideals ie will operate in reality. Human need generates a will,
which puts labor to work upon raw materials with capital, to produce
wealth.
Thus
Men make tools; tools do not men. Tools make money; and both serve
Men.
Men
band together by nature. Man is as Aristotle says, 'the political
animal'. It is his nature to form combinations for the purpose of
ensuring general survival of the kind.
They
do not choose to do so, it is not a compact or 'voluntary', since in
real time each and every person is born into a family group and from
there becomes a member of other groups, which form up into groups of
groups that have internal hierarchies,in all European societies.
The
People are the Sovereignty. The people are both a states foundation
and its animating spirit.
Their
collective world view is its world view, and in the end their consent
is the permission it has to act. Hence the state's existence is
predicated upon the continued support and input of those governed.
The People are the polity. They are sovereign and the highest earthy
judge of all matters political -- God is however Highest
Magistrate and 'ruler' over ALL. The People can in theory
assign this to any number of combinations of offices or persons, but
they still remain the base of the pyramid, which is society.
Life,
liberty, and the pursuit of happiness are meaningless 'rights'
without, a corresponding right to livelihood, hearth and substance to
thus ensure 'life' against the vicissitudes of reality. Thus the
ideal is to ensure as general an ownership of land; and/or ownership
stakes in capital ventures by the masses which will provide the
nation's labor; as may be achieved to ensure the meaningful
application of the above 'rights' to human life and not incidentally
a more generally diffusion of wealth thereby. Thus in the Organic
Society every other consideration will be subject and secondary to
the Well-being of the Organic Whole, which whole will provide the root
that feeds the branches in their parts. It is not an 'either' 'or'
issue.
The
means to this generally good end is Law. Law is the will of the
nation. Law will be clearly worded, and made to be internally consistent. Law is supreme within its domain, but should be limited
to the least amount of domain that will keep general good order and
ensure the conditions outlined above, such that the ambitions and avarice of the parts are kept in line with the General Good.
Generally less layering equals more justice to the many and less
legalism by the few, and the less room that judges have to insert
their opinions into the operations of law, the better. We have seen
that this is a particular odious form of corruption.
No
special law is valid, nor shall any unwritten law be enforced. A law
not enacted properly has no effect, and is NO law at all.
Equality
before the law, means ONLY that NO persons get special privileges at
law and everyone gets a minimum standard of treatment before
magistrates. Nothing else at all.
Nor
should it ever be taken to mean that any legal being is equal to a
living man.
Any
act contrary to, or unsupported law by any governmental agent or
employee is tyranny. All acts without power of Law are tyrannical at
their inception. Any state official that acts without the
positive sanction of law is a tyrannt and may be resisted with deadly
force by all citizens.
Any
person that attempts to enforce tyranny by what ever means forfeits
his life. There being only ONE punishment for the attempted overthrow
of the Law: Death.
Tyranny
is NEVER lawful nor just, all may kill a tyrant. No one is bound to
the will of a tyrant. No Tyrannical act has the power or sanction of
law.
Citizens
shall simply dispose of criminals, who may be stopped by any citizen
with any amount of forced needed to protect both his own person and
the general common good. No citizen is liable for a crime in stopping
criminal acts. The word of two citizens in good standing shall be
enough to prove the action just.
Men
make weapons to defend their interest in both their own things and in
the general order about them as such: No law outlawing the keeping of
private infantry weapons is to have effect.
No
Corporate Being is or can be a citizen, and thus NO such being has
RIGHTS.
This
being cannot vote and cannot be called up to defend the polity so to
give it equality with those that can and will is obscene.
Corporations are creations of the state which is itself a creation of
living men, who are created in the image of the living God. Corporate
beings have ONLY privileges.
Corporations
must be loyal to the national interest. It simply makes no sense to
allow enemies of the nation to function from within our country with
our blessing and support.
Voting
and Taxation/Call-up: These should be tied together in so much as
those that do not pay in, nor risk life and limb, should not have a
say in how monies are paid out, this is just. These are the two
primary duties. ALL full citizens shall pay at least some nominal tax
AND risk life to qualify for full citizenship. Any male citizen that
refuses his call up duty will pay DOUBLE tax, and lose his voting
franchise. No service, NO say!
Females
will not be subject to call up, nor shall they vote, but they also
will be exempt from legal duty to the state – jury duty, most
criminal and civil law -- such that their time can be proper
dedicated to the Home, Hearth, and Child. Females that are not
married to a man will be subject to tax at the rate of males that
refuse call up, and shall be 'encouraged' by other legal
restrictions to do their duty to the kind in the home. Liberal
Modernity will perish at all levels.
Duty
and Right: These in union with justice are the foundation of all good
human ordering and just such ordering is the basis for human society.
Rights without Duties to keep their exercise within decent bounds
bring chaos and anarchy, with all the waste attendant there upon. But
on the other side of the coin duty without right is merely slavery
with flowery terms attached to the matter, a form of serfdom if you
will.
All
Rights carry with themselves a Duty to exercise them in a manner that
is just and morally defensible. Duty is the key to right. Thus no
person that rejects duty can act in a manner which is morally
defensible and just. And as such the state and its citizens have no
reason to act as such toward them. Hence those that reject duty do
not have rights that will be respected by the People as valid and
having force.
Given
the above I propose the following :
As
regards:
The
People: Initiatives, Referendums, Recalls and Plebiscites, need put
into place to ensure at all levels of government are the servant and
not the master of the People -- as defined above -- whose will it
represents and whose agent it is in fact at all times. We
want a government of the People, by the People and for the People,
who will be defined as all male adults that pay tax and do call up,
in the new order of things. The simple fact is the rot
begins at the bottom in our system. Our localities are corrupt, the
states even more so and the fed is beyond gone. They are corrupt
because they know that once the every other yearly show at
differences is over it will be back to the same old back room deals,
and shady activities, with NO effective means of the voting citizens
to check their actions. If the country council or mayor, and all the
rest on up, could be simply VOTED OUT like they were voted in, and
this was fairly easily done, these folks would be far more amendable
to public inclination, and far less likely to engage in corrupt and
or unpopular practices. Thus the healing would start at the bottom
and work its way up. This would also be good in that it would instill
the practice of banding together to peacefully debate and otherwise
engage in civic activity in the exercise of their sovereignty.
Politicians and the administrative class generally need to remember
right good and well that they hold office and public trust, and for
that matter any station in life, at the leave of free men, who can
and will freely take that trust back with impunity, as is their
right.
Parties:
The only thing more openly controlled, than a two party state that
does not allow any sort of national or any meaningful state
plebiscite on matters of nation/regional impart, is a one party
state, with an openly Leninist system. The unofficial two party
system is in dire need of being dismantled, and any advantage or
control over elections and candidates eliminated by means of positive
legislation. In their place I would like to see only individuals
running on platforms that they will be bound to keep if selected by
the people.
Voting:
If you do not do call up and do not pay at least the nominal minimum
tax you will not vote. Voting days and times will henceforth be
uniform across all jurisdictions, and all voting days will be a paid
holiday so that working citizens have time to exercise their
franchise. Really though there is NO reason that voting cannot be
done on the fly. We have the network technology to allow people in
the Hindu Kush to vote if need be, so all the silly technical
arguments against popular direct voting are rubbish, pure and simple.
The
Law: Standardized legal procedure and practice across all
jurisdictions Common Law will be put to bed and Stasis Dare will NO
longer exist. What was ruled before will be of NO consequence now. A
Codified Civil Law will be the order of the day. The People and
Congress -- which Congress will be thoroughly under the control of
the people by means of recall and plebiscite -- and NOT judges will
make law; judges will merely rule on the application of particular
laws to particular citizens, and then sentence them to the proscribed
punishment.
The
States: These are anachronisms, and at the very least require their
laws and administrative codes normalized by introducing uniform legal
codes, procedures, criminal codes, regulations. They should be keep
as congressional voting districts and administrative districts, but
have NO existence beyond this. Their governors will be appointed from
the center and there will be no legislatures. All legislation will
come from the Congress.
The
Congress: The House-- Needs to be expanded to four times it current
number and all members need to be voted in proportionately in the
House by 'state' voting districts, with any party that can get 15% of
any district's electorate eligible. The Senate – four senators with
all being elected by direct election by administrative district
formally known as states. This expanded Congress should be the center
of the new state and the prima inter pares among governmental bodies,
and all laws will be passed by it, subject to veto by the electorate,
in the name of the People and Congress.
President:
Needs abolished and replaced with a collegiate office subordinate to
the Congress, all of the current executive offices will be put at the
disposition of congress and the people, which will alter, abolish or
reform, them as needed.
Courts:
The court will be a strictly junior partner in government. They will
be subject to recall just like any other public official. The House
will nominate them and the Senate will either confirm or reject them,
subject to the final approval of the People at large.
Central
Banks: There is no action that these parasitic bodies performs that
the body politic cannot perform for itself. If the nation can charter
a bank to lend itself money..it can skip the bank and simply lend
itself money. If the nation can give a bank power to issue legal
tender at interest thus facilitating bond sales and debt, then the
nation can issue legal tender, on its own accounts without interest
and no inherent debt attached. Thus I move that the treasury simply
issue debt free notes that function in much the same manner BUT that
are issued without interest and without bonds bearing interest
backing them, but that are backed SOLELY by the productive capacity
of the nation as a whole. Moreover I mover that the international
investors bond -- ALL OF THEM -- be defaulted upon and any properties
they may hold within the United States be forfeit to the Treasury to
be sold at free open public auction for public profit. I can see no
reason to allow foreigners and traitors to keep ill gotten loot.
Army/Police:
will be under the command of the new congress. It shall be manned by
the citizen body who shall serve in rotating reimbursed 4 month call
ups from 18 to 58 years of age. It shall be composed so that no unit
is based near its home nor has a majority of persons from any state
or locality. The Officers to include upper ranking NCOs shall be the
only professional corps of career soldiers in the state, and shall
serve from 16 until 70 . There number shall be limited to 50,000 to
be chosen based upon ability alone, and they be provided for at
public expense from tax revenue; however they shall be barred from
marriage and all their property will revert to the state upon death.
The army shall act as the constabulary force, when and where the
armed citizenry cannot keep order, so there will be NO more local, or
state police.
And
thus ideally one ends up with a system in which the People are the
real power and in which they have control over all the various
sectors of society which have power over their persons, families,
homes, and livelihoods. They have control over their present and thus
can preserve their past and work to make their future brighter,
lighter and better for all.
