It is apparent to all, on one level or another, that our current Governmental System is broken. We have gone from a Nation of Free People to Persons
under Corporate Law, leading us to Militarized Dictatorship (some believe we are on the threshold of that door already). Many people are discussing a
form of insurrection or revolution of the People against the Government and how this may be achieved, but there is very little discussion or examples
of how to put it back together. I, for one, do not want it put back together under the old ways. This, in my opinion, will only lead to much the same
as today. I therefore submit to the World, rather than any specific Country, what I believe to be a plausible alternative to the current systems of
government.

********************The Constitution*******************
Preamble: The purpose of human life is to prosper and live happily. The function of society is to protect those conditions that let all individuals
achieve prosperity and happiness. Those conditions can be delivered by a constitution that prohibits the use of initiatory force or coercion by any
person, group, or government against any individual.
Article 1: No person, group, or government may initiate force, threat of force, harm, or fraud against the person or property of any individual.
Article 2: Force may be morally and legally used only in defense against those that violate Article 1.
Article 3: No exceptions shall ever exist to Articles 1 and 2.
The Six Axioms:
1. Values exist only relative to Life.
2. Whatever benefits a living organism is a value to that organism. Whatever harms a living organism is a dis-value to that organism.
3. The basic value against which all values are measured is the conscious individual.
4. Morals relate only to conscious individuals.
5. Immoral actions arise from individuals choosing to harm others through force, fraud, deception, coercion- or from individuals choosing to usurp,
attack, or destroy values earned by others.
6. Moral actions arise from individuals choosing to benefit others by competitively producing values for them.

***********************Government*******************
The People and the Governments (on a community,sub-local, local, national, and global level) shall be divided into 3 Houses or Casts(the word "Cast"
is used hereafter).
These three Casts shall be designated by the type of work the individual does and are known as Working, Mental, and Enforcement(cast names are open to
suggestion).
Examples of Cast positions are as follows:
Working: Anyone that provides to society through working with their hands ie; Manual labor workers, Medical doctors, Food service,etc.
Mental: Anyone that provides to society through thought ie; Teachers, Scientists, Religious leaders etc.
Enforcement: Anyone who provides to society through defense ie; Guards, Police, Military, etc.
No Cast is above another, as all are created equal in the structure of the Government and are held accountable for the decisions they make.
No Individual is above another, as all are created equal in the structure of the Government and are held accountable for the decisions they make.
Children, beginning at the age of 9, will spend non-school time working within a Cast for 3 consecutive years, at the age of 12 the child changes
Casts and works 3 years within that Cast, at the age of 15 the child changes Casts and works 3 years within that Cast. At the age of 18 the new adult
chooses their Cast and thus their position of benefit to society. They may change Casts after 3 years within that Cast and are in good standing.
All Government Council structures will be set up as follows;
1 Arbitrator(Non-voting) and 3 Members of each Cast, equaling a ten member Council for each level of Government.
Anyone, at the age of 18 or over, may be a member of a council for their perspective Cast and is voted in based upon their contributions to society
and is voted in by the members of their Cast.
Anyone, at the age of 27 or over, that has worked, as an adult, a minimum of 3 years in each Cast, and is in good standing, and has council
experience, may run for Arbitrator, and is voted in by the Council members of all 3 Casts of the same level of Government being applied for.
In the event of the resignation, removal, or death of a council member, an immediate vote is cast, by the people of that Cast, to fill the
position.
In the event of the resignation, removal, or death of an Arbitrator, a vote is cast by the Council members of that level of Government from eligible
members of society. If no qualified member is available a Council member is voted in to the Arbitrators position until an individual is found
qualified. The People then cast a vote to replace that Council position within their Cast(see above)
The people will express their concerns to their Cast Council members. If resolve is not achieved they then may go to higher Councils or to other Casts
Council members.
