"Your looking in the wrong direction. Greed, and the world knows the Jewish mind-sets"

Dear Deep Blue,

There are many Jewish mind-sets. Just as Christians, atheists, Hindus, etc. have different mind-sets so do Jews. The bigoted, prejudiced world knows the Jewish mind-sets. Thinking people don't lump all of a particular religion or ethnicity together. They know that a label doesn't define a person. They know that one Jew is different from another Jew just as one Christian is different from another Christian.

My plan is the land is divided into economic regions.

A different organization runs each region and makes the
laws and rules for that region.

Some regions are run by nonprofits, some by companies, others by
local governments.
You could run your own region if you wanted.

Some regions would do a better job than we have today.

In other words, some regions would have higher pay rates,
a better economy, a more efficient system.
It would be more fun to live in those regions.

So those regions get more land (they started small).

This is competition, and results in improvements.

I think David F is right, we don't need professional
politicians.

The regions run by nonprofits would have more good times
and more fun, they would be great places to live.

Everybody would benefit from this system.

There are a lot of details needed to get it started and
make it work, you can read the details at my website
if you want:

www.endworldsuffering.org

So I would like to ask everybody,
if you were running your own region of land, how would
you do it?

What improvements would you make, compared
to the way everything is run now?

David.........you know how the world works. The lab;els are in fact a product of what humans are, and labels would constitute our mentality of our present evolutionary small-mindfulness:) David.f......I ask you this question. How many ban-aids can be administrated, before someone see,s AID will no-longer heal the festering sore? I think most would know by to-nights....lets say rants and testing s, that the 360 is nothing more than a circle.

Mountains out of mole hills was the line of, however not a bad bet;) I think land as it is, holds great promise to the eye:) I,ll leave it there I think.

It doesn't hurt to think big, but wise:) I mean....this is how we got here, was it not.

You have come up with an interesting concept about using competition to work to the people's advantage (as long as there is no cartel or 'fixing' of sorts between all the landowners in that scenario ie. removing choice from the equation).

The issue is as always about distribution of power. We have become less of a pluralistic society, governments becoming open to abuse by those heavily geared interest groups.

The success of a happy society (I reckon) lies in a mixture of individual and collective benefits. eg. some things best left to the people through government such as universal health care, law enforcement, retirement, education, energy but with greater involvement of people. And some things left to private groups, business and individuals, so that revenue (the pool) can best be used for quality care in those essential areas. That is, some spheres of life should not be subject to a pure profit motive. Too much is spent of window dressing and vote buying guff, get rid of the waffle and wah wah programs marketed to the LCD factor, and get on with providing value for money in those esesential services and let creative individuals do the rest.

Get rid of the notion of shareholder and focus more on people as employees, family members, or even dare I say it, consumers. Provide a mix of incentives for entrepreneurism and innovation but work to remove the huge wage disparities. The health of nations tend to hinge on that gap.

Too many issues to go into, but in terms of david f's premise maybe we could elect representatives but have citizens involved in parliament as well to introduce legislation or a petition, a referendum etc. It might be unwieldy but there has to be a way to facilitate more involvement from ordinary people - democracy hinges on that premise.

Dear Deep-Blue,

I disagree. The labels are quite often not what people are at all. Often they are the product of prejudice and ignorance.

Naomi Klein: "Shock Doctrine"
Unleashed by Right-Wingers in Wisconsin and Throughout the Country

For decades right-wing ideologues have exploited crises to push through an agenda that has nothing to do with resolving those crises. Wisconsin is no different.

AMY GOODMAN: As a wave of anti-union bills are introduced across the country in the wake of the Great Recession, many analysts are picking up on the theory that award-winning journalist and author Naomi Klein first argued in her bestselling book The Shock Doctrine: The Rise of Disaster Capitalism.

In it, she reveals how those in power use times of crisis to push through undemocratic, radical, free market economic policies...
