Modern
government depends upon its citizens to provide services and taxes in exchange
for its governance. California
has conducted the proper experiments in this social arena and San Francisco is now the model for a new and
just society. The government is obviously obligated to supply all the needs of
its citizenry in one form or another and to educate the polis as to the correct
or preferred conduct for all. Unfairness and bigotry are crimes against
humanity and must be punished by strict laws and confiscatory taxes. Any form
of conduct must be accepted as an individual choice, hence the fundamental right,
of every citizen, but, certain actions enhances the quality of our government
by creating the need for special services and providing jobs. Any form of conduct that refutes the bigoted
Biblical ‘morality’ must be accepted as a socially preferred individual choice
except those actions the government arbitrarily deems as unhealthy of unsafe.
The Needs of the Citizen
Comes First.
Every
citizen has certain strengths and weaknesses as defined by accepted norms of
conduct and inherited skills. It turns out that certain views of social actions,
particularly the choices not to appease the capitalists and have their labor
exploited, are socially and intellectually correct and need to be emphasized in
government and education. Those who have a different view of love and society and
those who think that the personal choice of using drugs, sex and the just retrieval
of misappropriated property or abortion are not crimes are now in the majority
of our society. They will vote to change
our society. We will change the world. While
the most important duty of government is education--not law enforcement as one would
presume--the resources devoted to the freely-chosen actions of a few provide
essential jobs for many citizens who want to serve their government. San Francisco has
attained an high score on the health and
social services scale with an impressive list. [1]
We need more and easier jobs and fewer restrictions on our life styles. We can
have a society with full employment and benefits for all if we force
capitalists to surrender most of their ill-gotten wealth.
These
essential services are provided by the tax base by taxing those who have
exploited our citizens and environment. Workers and tourists and businesses pay
appropriate taxes so that the city can provide them to the poor. They could pay
much more. The minimum wage in San
Francisco is now only $9.36/hour, [2]
which is essential to provide the necessary tax base for the government to
properly function. This is not, however, a livable wage so it must be much
higher, probably $30 or $40 an hour. The tax rate on payroll expense is 1.5%.[3]
The city sales tax is 8.50%.[4]
A high minimum wage and subsequent high progressive taxes now fund the city
services with some money from federal funds. Higher taxes are needed. We need
very high marginal income tax rates to recover the money and land that the
capitalists have stolen from the people. For the rich, we need a 90% tax rate
and 100% for all profits over 1 million dollars per year. Profits are achieved
only by trampling the poor and unfortunate and that is the evil of capitalism. We need a wealth tax to force those who hoard
their money to share it with the less fortunate.
Personal Freedoms, Drugs and their Use.
Citizens
must be free and unencumbered by fascist laws to choose their lifestyles and recreational
modes of life. Drugs are a personal choice and loads of fun and the government
should not interfere in such personal matters. San Francisco has a Drug Court (SFDC)[5]
and the court monitors the progress of the treatment of those persons who elect
to enjoy themselves with recreational substances. This is not a crime. Many are
arrested for merely choosing a lifestyle that satisfies them and that act of
incarcerating the innocent is inhumane. San
Francisco has a Drug Court has an impressive record as
stated:
“Since 1996, over 900 participants have
graduated from the San Francisco
Drug Court .
Among them, ninety-three percent of the graduates had a stable source of
income upon program completion, 91% had obtained stable housing, and several
participants enrolled in school or vocational training while participating in
the program. Twenty-percent of the graduates had reestablished contact with
their minor children upon graduation.”
This
is a unparalleled success and provides hundreds of jobs for court and city
employees. Most of our jobs should be oriented so as to assist our citizens
with their personal choices and lifestyles. We need more such services and
those agencies and task forces provide many new jobs. Taking drugs is a basic right and the
medical treatment of unfortunate side effects is the responsibility of a caring
government.
While
considered illegal by some unprogressive cities and counties and the federal
government, the drug sharing and fellowship and camaraderie and the concomitant
personal choice to enjoy substances actually benefit society. The ‘addict,’ a
pejorative label that ostracizes individual freedom, needs special education,
counseling, and the protection from law enforcement, medical services and many
other special services. All these services are paid for by the government and enhance
and broaden the responsibilities of the cities to provide to the citizens what
they need. Societies need to be happy and recreational drugs bring happiness.
Those who disapprove of drug use need sensitivity training and higher taxes.
We
need to legalize all drugs and provide counseling for their use among those who
suffer from the ills of capitalism and racism and abuse from the white
majority. The cost of drugs should be
very low and subsidized by the government. Drug screening should be abolished
and drug testing should only be used to ensure that drugs of choice are pure
and not contaminated.
Immigration
There
are no human boundaries or fences in this world. The world is not a system of walls
and jails. All persons own everything in concert and harmony with the flora and
animals on this globe and no group should prevent the poor from enjoying a
decent life in the US
or elsewhere. We have made the world
poor with capitalism. To protect the poor and support their human rights, no San Francisco city tax
revenues or any other kind of money may be spent in assisting authorities in
enforcing immigration laws.[6]
Those laws are forms of racism, bigotry, greed and a crime against humanity.
The influx of new citizens means that new jobs can be created to keep and
protect persons who come from other countries who would normally be considered
to be felons and perhaps deported. San Francisco has found
the way to an enlightened society through proper government.
We
have enormous wealth and we must use it to create a new society for those less
fortunate and redress the sins of the past. Crimes committed by undocumented
workers and other persons are not really crimes, but they do provide a large
number of government jobs and enhances the tax base through city taxes. Those who take the money and property from the
upper classes are not committing crimes; they are simply retrieving their fair share
of prosperity that was denied them by the rich. Persons have a right to acquire resources denied
them by evil and oppressive government. This is only a just form of reparations
and its remedy is way overdue.
“Prostitution”
Love
is not a crime and those people who choose to enjoy sex at any age or with any
person or their pets are not criminals. Tax cuts are crimes. The city of San
Francisco has a just social plan to “Stop the Enforcement of the Prostitution
Laws and Bring Protection to Sex Workers”[7]
The city has a Task Force on Prostitution that considers such practices by
citizens and others as a basic human right and the apprehension, persecution
and incarceration of those persons who are merely plying their craft as costly,
unjust and ineffective. [8]
The sex workers suffer more abuse from the police than from their clients.[9]
Sex is love and police actions are war.
Sex
workers need the protection of unions and their government for a just society. Sex workers need a minimum guaranteed minimum
wage that allows for a decent life style.
“Murder”
The
use of force is always unfortunate, but many times this is only a form of
protest and economic self defense and a way to express concern against those
persons who conspire to suppress the citizens and force them into poverty and
despair. Violence is caused by capitalism and the suppression of human rights
as the citizens seek to share drugs and other activities among themselves. The murder rate is unfortunately rising,[10]
but this only calls for more jobs and social services for the victims, police,
health services, counseling and education. Drugs need to be legalized and destigmatized.
Guns need to be banned especially among the fascist police forces that persecute
the masses by enforcing their unfair laws. We must provide our citizens with
all they need so as to prevent violence. Many existing laws must be repealed
and the police forces need to be retrained and their focus redirected toward
the real criminals of our society: business and capitalists. The FBI, DEA, IRS
and other agencies need to be banned in California .
AIDS
Love
is not a crime. Free love should be free and encumbered by laws and agents of
the government. HIV infection and the diseases associated with this personal
and private pursuit of individual social preferences are unfortunate, but
remain one of the main attractions in San
Francisco and have created hundreds and thousands of
jobs. The CIA created AIDS in the hope that this disease would exterminate the
undesirables in society and they succeeded in part in their evil. The people
need more drugs and medical services so that they can enjoy a better and longer
life and avoid this disease forced upon them by capitalists and evil right-wing
government. People need a way to express their love and affection without
oppressive government interfering with their lives. There are no abnormal sex acts—only love. There
are numerous social and legal aid societies who support those who want to
exploit and enjoy their particular sexual preferences.[11]
The gay and lesbian society is a major source
of taxes and tourism for the city. City commerce is enhanced and tourism excels
as drug treatment and other services create more and more taxes and create new
and unique services. Out of concern,
there are numerous services for assisted dying and other options in the city. [12]
The age of consent for love should not be dictated by law. Love is ageless and
children need love not war.
Education of the Masses.
The
capitalists and wealthy persons all need to be firmly educated as to their
intrinsic social evils by a new form of education. They must take extensive
retraining courses and then pass strict oral and written exams on how ordinary
citizens must be appreciated and how their business society has caused misery
and suffering around the world. The citizens have a fundamental right to get as
much education, or as little if that is their choice, as they desire. The government
must provide educational facilities to all that request them at no cost to the
student unless they are wealthy. Educational facilities that teach business and
capitalism must be abolished. The capitalists need to be educated as to the
following:
[1]
If you have money and wealth and property above the median that is proof that
you attained these gains unfairly and the government needs to confiscate these
holdings and return the excess proceeds to the people. The wealthy must redress
the sins of the past. Inheritances must be abolished and all property and
wealth must be returned to the government after death. All money and property ultimately belong to
the state.
[2]
Capitalism is evil as it exploits the masses and creates poverty and disease.
The government needs to control commerce, jobs and taxes so that the remnants
of capitalism can finally no longer poison our society. The government can
provide food and shelter better than business. Major corporations and especially oil companies
must be nationalized by the government and restructured for the benefit of
society.
[3]
Education is the key to a great society and those who refuse to accept the
decisions of egalitarian government must be reeducated until they agree with
the proper and correct goals of government. Education must be free and open to
all persons at all ages and for any length of time. Colleges should be
enlightened societies and free from rules and academic demands. Examinations,
particularly standardized tests, are discriminatory and must not be allowed to
poison inquiry and self expression. There is no reason to issue grades. Capitalists
use grades to discriminate against the poor and persons of color.
[4]
The rights of the people must not be abridged and personal choices about
recreational drug use, sex, and freedom from oppressions like forced work rules
or tedious occupations must be fully expressed. Jobs must not be based on cognitive skills. Certain
professions must be forced to select students based on quotas or skin color and
not by any academic metrics. Only the arrogant think that the average citizen or
the cognitively impaired could not become great brain surgeons or engineers.
[5]
Health care and rehabilitation for disease must be free and available to all. Capitalism
has poisoned our foods and air and created numerous disorders and they should
pay for health care with punitive taxes.
[6]
Persons of color who have been suppressed and marginalized for the last 500
years in the Western Hemisphere must be given
2 or 3 votes each compared to white males so that they can correct and
remediate unfair and biased aspects of society. All women should have 2 votes and women of
color 3 or 4 votes each. This will restore peace and justice to our society and
form an inclusive and modern society.
[6]
Crimes are not crimes if poor people are forced to commit them for survival.
Many must steal money for food for their families as they cannot get jobs in
business. This is really not thievery; it is social justice. The political
prisoners and victims of corporate crimes must be pardoned and released from
incarceration and returned to society where they can live their own lives in
their own way without interference from the police or oppressive agencies. Persons
who are so-called felons should be free of taxes of any form and local fees forever.
[7]
Private property is a privilege reserved only for those enlightened persons who
dedicate their lives to improving government and its proper relation to the
people. Property unfairly gotten thought the evils of capitalism or business
must be returned to the people. Corporations are an affront to a just society
and all common stocks and bonds should be reserved for the people. Excessive
retirement accounts and IRAs, particularly of the fascist Roth type, must be
assigned to the people for proper redistribution.
[8]
Capitalism and business have ruined our planet and soon the oceans will die and
we will be forced into poverty and cannibalism because of their greed. The air
is already loaded with toxic carbon dioxide; the poison of capitalism. The
excessive use of energy is responsible for this outrage. Energy production must
be severely taxed so that profits cannot be made from this precious resource. Corporations must be abolished and government
controls implemented in necessary cases.
[9]
The government is the preferred employer and any person who wants a job should
have one that fits their personal preferences with a livable wage and free
medical care and retirement benefits. Persons
should be given jobs that they like to do and not be responsible for
accounting, profits or goals as the capitalists and business tyrants wish. The work week should be no longer than 20
hours with several months of vacation and 40 days of holidays per year. Taxes
from permitted and limited forms of capitalism must be used to create new jobs
and restructure our society. Capitalism must finally be eliminated so that
peace and justice and prosperity can be attained for all.
[10]
The military must be abolished in all forms. We want peace not war.
