A New Constitution

We the citizens of New Nation are bound by laws of nature, whether from the simple sciences or metaphysics, to maintain the highest levels of humanity in ourselves as well as each other. No member of our community shall be deprived of those things that are essential to life and the pursuit of Enlightenment.

* Persons become citizens of New Nation by registering with the National Office of Records or being born to such citizens as mentioned. When children reach the age of 18 years, they are to register as independent citizens. Every citizen receives identification numbers that are used to function when dealing with the legal systems and organizations of New Nation.

* New Nation will be governed by two main bodies.  The National Council of Policies consists of members representing local territories or counties. This body consists of ten percent of the citizens of our nation. These representatives will divide themselves into parties based on the political philosophies of their constituents. From this body will come the primary minister, chosen from the party with the largest number of members, and the deputy minister chosen from the party with the second largest number of members. The two ministers are to work together as officials that speak to the people as well as for the people on the world stage. The primary deputy is responsible for choosing the necessary staff and/or sub-ministers.

*The Council of Laws is dedicated to understanding the laws in order to dispense justice to all citizens of New Nation. The members of this body serve as judges to grant fair decisions in disputes between citizens with each other and citizens with the government. All members of the Council of Laws must have a scholarly knowledge of at least one political philosophy, one spiritual philosophy, and one scientific principle. Local judges are to defer to the Grand Committee in cases that are unresolved. The Grand Committee is made up of 13 of the best judges as elected by their peers. The members of both councils are voted in by the citizens of New Nation.

* All citizens will be educated as much as humanly possible to their fullest potential. Intellectual standards are measured on a national scale in comparison to the most enlightened societies of the present as well as the past.

* Private business is encouraged to operate within our borders. Industry is allowed to grow as much as a leader can make provided it not break any regulations deemed fit by the people of the community where such industry is located and the leaders of the enterprise not earn more than 20 times the least paid person of said enterprise.

* In terms of livestock and farming no farm shall be more than 20 times the home built upon said land.

* Amendments to this constitution are only legal if voted upon by two thirds of the citizens of New Nation.

* All ballots in national elections have a list of representatives beside blank boxes. The blank boxes are to be marked with an x.

* Campaigns should only last ten months. They should start the January of the year that the incumbent’s term is up for renewal.

* We are pluralistic in terms of belief as well as non-belief. All rituals are to be deemed acceptable by localities. Once the majority of a local district or county decides upon the acceptability of a ritual or practice, all parties must accept such decisions.

* All public infrastructures such as bridges, levies and federal buildings will be inspected and maintained annually.

* Citizens will decide the general areas by which their taxes shall be spent by checking a list order of personal importance at the beginning of each year. The list consists of: National Defense, Education, *Environmentalism, Health Care, Housing, Foreign Aid, etc.

How Obama Made History

We all know that President Obama made history by being the first dark person to be placed as the head of the United States, but he also made history in another way. Obama was the first U. S. president not to have a slave plan. All other presidents had a plan for the slaves of the empire. We are a special population. We are still slaves for the most part, especially since social integration. We have no control over any institutions so we have no control over our lives as an ethnic group. Even Obama has been ignored by members of his cabinet and Congress. He seems to think that because he is dark that he can leave the rest of us to languish. This decision by Obama has left dark people in the worse conditions they have ever been in since Europeans developed this empire. We are the largest community living in third world conditions. We suffer historic devastation day by day. Obama does not care about this part of his legacy because most of us do not care either. Most dark people are literally loving Obama to death. When historians look back at this time I hope that they note how Obama turned his back on the slave community he claims to be from.

Happy Mothers Days

It is a strange tradition to celebrate a behavior that should be natural, but since my mother was the only parent to stick around I will say Happy Mothers Days to all of you mothers. We celebrate all of you who have made sure that your children are psychologically developed. We celebrate the mothers that make sure their children get healthy food to eat. We celebrate mothers who work with fathers to provide the first community for their children. We celebrate mothers who have children with men of high character and not just because he is cute with muscles.  We celebrate mothers who sustain strong communities with their feminine power so that young adults can be good parents too. It brings me great joy to wish a Happy Mothers Day to all of the mothers who are doing the types of things that I mentioned.

Preparing For The Next Economic Collapse

The truth is that the economic system is a sham being held together by your hard work. Hard work is not enough to make a dead thing alive, so there will be another official economic collapse. this blog is not to scare or depress you. I have seen wonderful systems rising up. Community gardens are springing up all over the place. I also see people growing in their personal space. A family down the street is growing corn in their side yard. People are starting businesses from their homes and selling to their friends and family. I was taught how to lay vinyl as well as linoleum floors. I am currently learning computer programming. I have even seen communities developing waste management systems. When a system is dead the revolutionary thing to do is create a new system. I have made a system of study for those struggling in the destructive education system. If you stand in the rubble of a crumbled system expecting results you are insane. When the next economic collapse happens some communities will continue to function because they are running their own systems. You can do the same thing.
