Aperson 14 Thought also known as Canadian Liberalism with Transhumanist Characteristics, is the self-insert ideology of user Aperson 14. It is a  and   ,  , and    ideology which advocates for a mixture of   and   style of government. Enjoy, or don't.

It advocates for a  economy with moderate , an extensive   and  , along with   and   economics.

As mentioned earlier, I support an extensive welfare state and moderate  regulations. Why? Corporations aren't just gonna sit down and shut up if there's no regulation and let poor people be, they're gonna exploit the hell out of them! We need some basic things to make life a letter fairer around here. Like what? I'm glad you asked.
 * Free Education and [[File:Welf.png]] Healthcare. Includes post-secondary education. Cry about it [[File:Libertarian.png]] libertarians, I'm so sorry that I want to help people, the horror. Also free education makes it easier for [[File:Arist.png]] to advance in society, instead of being stopped by a paywall.
 * State-subidized housing for the homeless and the like. Private housing is fine, it's just that I'd like the government to purchase/develop some apartments and then either [[File:Statecap.png]] sell them to those in need at lower prices (which will also force the rest of the [[File:Cap.png]] market to drop their prices too) or straight-up hand them out for free (with some conditions of course).
 * [[File:Welf.png]] Social Assistance. Title. It's fine if the government lends some money to the poor to help them out, with the condition they are either searching for work, working, seeking education or currently enrolled in post-secondary. You can't just sit around and do nothing. If you don't find a job soon, the government will be forced to either delay or terminate [[File:Welf.png]] welfare payments (this is to prevent leeches).
 * New regulations about the minimum wage. Title. Raise the minimum wage with inflation and also increase it to make it so you can actually live on it.
 * Maximum Wage. Might sound crazy to some of you [[File:Libertarian.png]] idiots out there, but fucking Jeff Bezos isn't going to die if he loses money, he literally makes about two-thousand dollars per second but we got children starving to death on the streets. If there's more then a 300% wage difference between the highest-paid employee and the lowest-paid employee, that extra cash is going to be subject to a 100% tax. That [[File:Corp.png]] company is also going to be forced to change their wages so it'll be more fair unless they'll like to have [[File:Krit.png]] legal action brought against them.
 * [[File:Statecap.png]] State Capitalism. I don't really care much about this, but I'd to have partial state ownership (or alternatively [[File:SocCap2.png]] P3s) of [[File:Bankocracy.png]] banking, [[File:Sun.png]] power, [[File:Synd.png]] construction, and [[File:Merc.png]] travel companies. Why? We need the state to supervise/regulate and educate our people about our national economy, we cannot have profit-obsessed assholes constantly calling the shots, but we'll go a bit more in depth with this. Starting off with [[File:Bankocracy.png]] banking, the state should be involved so they can properly educate the consumer and ensure that large financial decisions are being made for the benefit of the national interest and won't cause a global recession. As for [[File:Sun.png]] power, green technology needs to be developed ASAP and a primarily [[File:Cap.png]] private power sector is gonna slow that down. As for [[File:Synd.png]] construction, I don't know, but having the state make some extra cash and have some extra supervision over construction is not such a bad idea. Finally as for transit, I hate private transit, we should expand our public transit, we need more railways and subways GODDAMN IT!. [[File:Merc.png]] Public transit is more [[File:Envi.png]] environmentally friendly, fits more people, AND COSTS THE USER LIKE A DOLLAR OR SO. While we're on the topic of [[File:StateCap.png]] State Capitalism, I do support SWFs and wouldn't mind the state playing an active role in the economy by investing and other stuff.
 * [[File:Krit.png]] Public legal representation [[File:Statecap.png]]. Might sound a bit confusing, but we'll keep going. Basically to simplify, I want all forms of legal defense to be publicly owned and provided free of charge. It's not fair if a poor person wants to sue a more wealthier person and then has to deal with his 20-man legal team while he gets a fucking homeless person for legal advice. The state should provide both parties with competent legal representatives, plus this would also solve the issue with public defenders in the United States and other countries. (Underpaid, overworked, etc.)
 * [[File:Postkeynes.png]] Post-Keynesian economics. I don't have much to say here, google it if you don't know what it is.
 * [[File:Envi.png]] Environmentalism. We gotta protect the Environment man, we need more regulations and investment in green technologies, and maybe even a carbon tax. Our environment is falling apart, climate change is real dude, this isn't [[File:Libtard.png]] liberal propaganda dude this is real life, and I don't want to die.
 * [[File:NeoMerc.png]] Protectionism through Neomercantilism. We gotta support local businesses and expand our economy to bring in extra money, it's time we become the new economic powerhouse of the world and a autonomous market easily exploited by foreign companies and governments alike isn't going to do that. (We'll touch on this a bit more, Keynesian economics too.)
 * [[File:Synd.png]] Not really related to welfare, but I do support the right to unionize, if workers want to form a union, go for it!

This part is going to be spilt into two sections, one about my taxation and spending policies, and the other will be about Keynesianism. We'll start with the taxation shit. What are the taxes I support? Well, I'll give you a short list.
 * [[File:Property.png]] Property Tax
 * [[File:SocCap.png]] Income Tax (obviously includes progressive taxation along with a additional "wealth tax" for individuals above a certain threshold)
 * [[File:SocCap.png]] Value Added Tax
 * [[File:Cap.png]] Sales Tax
 * [[File:Envi.png]] Carbon Tax (This is a maybe, although it's still likely)
 * [[File:NatProg.png]] Corporate Tax
 * [[File:NeoMerc.png]] Import Duties/Tariffs

I know Libertarians are dying right now but we need some way to get the cash for the  welfare state and other basic services like  police. State Capitalism will help though. Moving on to spending, I mean there's nothing much to talk about. I am a Keynesian, the state should actively regulate the economy and inject funding into it during economic "busts". The type of Keynesian I subscribe to would either be New Keynesianism or  Post-Keynesianism, seeing as they actively reject the neoclassical models of other forms of Keynesian, with  Post-Keynesianism (at least in my opinion) preferring to adapt more realistic models (such as the rejection of rationality of agents.)

Unless you're a total absolute globalist, you understand to a certain degree that the country should be a bigger concern then the rest of the world. I mean, it's your country, it's where you live. We as a nation have to reject, because it makes our country poorer and lets our people by exploited by foreign companies. We have to adopt a system of Neomercantilism to counteract the aforementioned  free trade.

Why Neomercantilism you may ask? Neomercantilism encourages self-reliance by restricting imports (and enforcing duties on those that make it through, giving us cash), encourages exports (giving us even more cash), controls the movement of capital and centralizes major currency decisions to a central government, letting the entire nation have some extra wiggle room when it comes to spending, letting us achieve that sweet sweet welfare. Neomercantilism with its restrictions on imports also supports local businesses and raises both domestic employment and income, and the expansion of exports creates further jobs and money.

You may think that with all this regulation and  welfare I am against  Economic Liberalism. I am not, to a certain extent, I'm not for any of that neoliberal bullshit, but I do support economic freedom. I believe that we have to establish a fair and free market by achieving the core characteristics of capitalism. I believe that starting and running a business should be easy and fair, and one of the core values that drives capitalism is competition. This is why I support trust-busting laws, because they make it easier for smaller, newer businesses to have a fighting chance against the global  megacorporations of today. Along with this, I support the right to own property, the right to  spend your money on whatever, the right to a  competent and fair  law system and  general contractual freedom. This is why I consider myself a liberal, because they do not focus on the class conflict or collaboration of  Marxism or  Fascism, they focus on the indiviualist ideals of the Enlightment, that your life is yours and you can do whatever, and unlike  Libertarians, I actually want to give you a shot at your life dreams, and instead just say "Aw sorry, looks like your family is too poor, looks like you can't become a doctor now little Timmy, better luck next time." Because, the truth is, Libertarianism is a pipe dream. There, I said it, looked at how fucked up America is right now dude, the shit with the private healthcare and the inability to afford a one-bedroom apartment if you're working federal minimum wage. Seriously, dude, you think sitting back and letting the megacorporations of today handle things is going to work? We need to let the best of the best be able to properly rise to the top without them being locked behind a stupid paywall, we need to help those at the bottom, not just because it's humane but because it benefits us too. If they can land a steady paycheck, they can help others with their taxes and even became a top scientist and maybe find the cure for cancer, or become some genius military leader or a brave politician or something. My idea of liberty is something like a  idea of liberty, you should be free from the big scary government (sometimes), but you should also be free from shit like your dad getting fired and now you have to starve to death in a slum.

Will be done tomorrow or whatever.

Will be done once Civics is done.

Will be done once Social is done.

Will be done once Diplomacy is done.
