Aurelianism

Aurelianism is a political ideology that emphasizes nationalism, cultural neutrality, and economic laissez-faire policies. It takes its name from Marcus Aurelius, a Roman emperor known for his Stoic philosophy and emphasis on personal virtue.

At its core, Aurelianism seeks to promote the interests of a nation and its people above all else. It emphasizes the importance of maintaining a strong national identity, while rejecting the idea of cultural supremacy or discrimination on the basis of immutable characteristics.

Economically, Aurelianism advocates for a laissez-faire approach, with no government intervention in the economy. It believes in free markets, individual liberty, and the importance of private property rights.

All men are equal under law, or so we pretend, in modern systems no man is equal to another, in western nations, almost always a rich man gets precedence over a poorer one, inequality under law exist based on your sex, looks, connections and even things beyond your control like culture and public sentiment. Inequality is something found everywhere in nature so some such activities found in governemnt are naturally moral, women recieve precedence over men when it comes to child custody & domestic voilence, which is good but also unfair. Even so the government has no ability to reason and therefore can't understand morality, it is only man that can decide what is moral and what is not, under this premise the Aurelian government is a limited one, run only by the best of the best and exists only to protect the nation, provide security and punish injustice.

What makes a citizen? This is a question rooted in the idea of civic responsibility, the notion that citizens of a nation should contribute to its prosperity and stability. An individual can live in a country and be declared a citizen, but does that mean they are truly a citizen of that nation? In some countries it is required that one holds values and traits associated with the nation to be considered a citizen, in most nations one needs to simply be born in the borders of the country or be the offspring of a citizen to be a citizen. (See Jus Soli and Jus sanguinis for more)

In other systems, citizenship would be marked by the ability to participate in civic life. Voting in elections, military service and occupying public offices are just a few of the requirements to be an official citizen.

But in an Aurelian state that isn't exactly the case, my definition of citizenship is simply someone who has lived in the nation for 15 years. Now naturally that also means that no child is born a citizen but only become citizens at the age of 15.

To be a citizen means having certain rights, but also the one simple responsibility to pay taxes, nothing else is mandatory but taxes within the Aurelian state.

All men are simply not equal, a sense of priority must exist, so a citizen gets priority over a non-citizen, priority in court & priority in police response and security. The citizen has many rights and protections over the non-citizen, but the most important one, that of property, i shall outline below.


 * The Right to Private Property is a fundamental principle in many societies and legal systems around the world. It allows individuals to own and control property, which can include personal possessions, land, buildings, and other assets. It is one that should be guaranteed to the citizen by the Constitution, but limited only to the citizen. Restricting the right to private property to citizens is an essential component of citizenship itself, by restricting private property to citizens, it is a way of reinforcing the idea that citizenship is a privilege that comes with certain obligations. Limiting property to citizens is also based on concerns about national security and sovereignty. In many countries, private property is seen as a critical aspect of national security, as it allows individuals and businesses to control resources and assets that may be strategically important to the nation.  While in most nations today, public organizations such as corporations, syndicates, and multi-owned businesses also hold property, there are several reasons why the right to private property should be limited to individuals and not extended to these types of organizations. Firstly, individuals have a more personal relationship with their property than organizations do. When an individual owns property, they are more likely to have a direct connection with it and care for it in a way that reflects their own values and priorities. In contrast, organizations are typically managed by multiple people who may have different priorities and values, and may not have the same level of attachment to the property. Secondly, organizations can accumulate large amounts of property and wealth, which can lead to concentration of power and influence. When this occurs, the rights and interests of individuals may be overshadowed by those of the organization. This can lead to exploitation and abuses of power, as well as a lack of accountability for the organization's actions. Thirdly, individuals have a greater level of autonomy and control over their own lives than organizations do. When an individual owns property, they have the ability to make decisions about how it is used and what happens to it. This allows them to exercise their own judgment and make choices that align with their values and interests. In contrast, organizations are typically subject to a wide range of organizational bureaucratic constraints, and may be required to act in ways that do not align with the logical expectation of a business, as by the senseless short-term profiteering made to appease shareholders at the expense of the consumer, worker politics coming at the expense of the workers that syndicates are meant to protect, and lastly the well known and hated diversity quotas, which are only there political virtue signaling and nothing logically expected of a business.  Overall, while public organizations have a questionable but productive role to play in society, it is important to limit their rights to private property in order to ensure that individual rights and interests are protected. By doing so, we can help to promote a more just and equal society where everyone has the opportunity to thrive.

There are very few logical reasons in favor of taxation, but the one i'd like to use is fiscal stability in direct opposition of the inflationary insanity that is currency printing. Taxation can be a good and logically trackable way to ensure that the government has the funds it needs to provide it's essential fuctions, while maintaining a responsible fiscal policy.

Without taxation, the government would have no way to raise the revenue it needs, and it would be forced to rely on borrowing, which can lead to unsustainable levels of debt and interest payments. The Aurelian state shall not have a currency, instead it shall have a trimetallic standard, using platinum, gold & silver all of which will fall under the National Mint's juristiction.

All individuals shall pay a base 8% flat income tax rate, regardless of their income level. This type of tax system is usually, simple and fair because everyone pays the same percentage of their income.

However, in my proposed tax system, there are several clauses that add additional taxes on top of the base tax. Here's how i would explain each clause:


 * Non-Official Language/Overbureaucracy Tax: This clause proposes an additional 5% tax for individuals who do not speak and wirte the official language of the country. The rationale behind this tax is that speaking the official language is important for communication and integration in the country, and individuals who do not speak the language may require additional resources and services. This tax would incentivize individuals to learn the official language.

- -
 * Deservice tax: This clause proposes an additional 8% tax for individuals who refuse to serve military in times of war, more for this in the "service by contract" section of the military. The rationale behind this tax is that military service is considered a duty of citizenship, and individuals who refuse to serve may be seen as shirking their duty. This tax would help fund the members military with better equipment, training and related programs to offshoot the "deservice" of those choosing not to serve.
 * Non-Citizen Tax: This clause proposes an additional 30% tax for individuals who are not citizens of the country. Though non-citizens may seem weird to put taxes on but this tax would incentivize individuals to become citizens, as well track malicious foreign actors in the country. If a non-citizen amasses wealth within the nation's borders and then leaves the country without paying his tax, he is exiled till the due is paid back with with a 5% per annum interest. If he so attempts to reenter the country without paying the owed sum, he may face a criminal trial with punishments ranging all the way to capital punishment.
 * "Corporate" Tax: This clause proposes a 20% tax on "corporations", or so to say public organizations. The rationale behind this tax is that "corporations" are considered separate legal entities from individuals and small businesses, i would personally classify them as pseudo-governments. This also includes large syndicates, churches, charities, non-profits and other multinationals. This tax would help disincentivize corporate monopolies and oligopolies, ensuring that the majority of the national economy is made up of small business and individuals as opposed to large corporate entities.

The National Mint, as the name suggests, is a government-owned institution responsible for recording the value of the country's money, based on market fluctuations, as well as producing coins. There is no currency but a trimetallic standard, the National Mint is responsible for producing, testing, and maintaining the supply and quality of platinum, gold, and silver in circulation.

The National Mint would be in charge of establishing the weights, purities, and denominations of each of the three metals, ensuring that they meet the standards set by the market. It would also be responsible for minting and distributing the coins or bars on the demand of financial institutions, as well as to the general public.

In addition, the National Mint would be tasked with monitoring the nation's treasury to ensure that the state never goes into debt. This would require close cooperation with other government agencies, as well as financial and economic experts.

Nations typically prioritize economic growth and prosperity. As such, military policies that align with these goals are wise and within reason, right? Well, not exactly, most nations operated under a, or a variation of it, as such their economies are inefficient, this inefficiency becomes worse when talking about a. With said inefficiency and the, as the economy gets more centralized and monopolized and small businesses get killed off, the Economic calculation problem will eventually become critical and cause a recession or a depression in the host country. When this occurs it becomes very likely that the host country initiates a war because of either optics or their misunderstanding of economics. As such aurelian military policy should be suited these facts.

This section outlines the terms and conditions of a contract between an individual and the state, which, if agreed upon, would void the Deservice tax.

By signing this contract, the individual agrees to serve in the military for a specified period of time in exchange for the exemption from the Deservice tax. The duration of service, specific duties, and the benefits and protections provided will be outlined in the contract. The individual would receive training and equipment as necessary to fulfill their role, and would be compensated accordingly. Said training may be reduced and in rare occasions even voided if the person has received proper private military training, from a private security firm, militia or military contractor.

In cases where an individual is unable to serve in the military due to injury, mental disability, or self-induced unhealthiness like obesity, they will be excluded from the terms of the contract. The individual must provide appropriate medical documentation to prove their condition to be eligible for exclusion. Furthermore, if an individual is called upon to serve during times of war, and they are physically or mentally unable to do so, they will be once again subject to the Deservice tax, and they'll have to pay the tax for every year that the contract provided them tax exception, and the terms of this will be outlined in the contract.

It is important to note that the contract is voluntary and that individuals are under no obligation to sign it.

Firstly, it is important to note that implementing selective tariffs based on the type of organization or individual may be challenging to enforce and could lead to unintended consequences. Additionally, defining the criteria for what constitutes a "public organization" or a "public-private" company can be challenging, as there are many different types of entities that may fall under these categories. However, it is crucial for the effective implementation of the selective tariff policy. Here are some possible criteria that can be used:


 * Ownership: A public organization may be owned or controlled by the government or a government agency, while a public-private company may have a mix of government and private ownership or "public" ownership in the from of the stock market.


 * Funding: A public organization may receive significant funding from the government, while a public-private company may receive some government funding or support, in the forms of subsidies, but also generate revenue from private sources, though this revenue may be superfluous, or disincentivizing profit to receive more funding.


 * Governance: A public organization may be governed by a board or council appointed by the government, while a public-private company may have a board that includes private sector representatives like those of the stock market, as opposed to a private company which would be governed by a single individual, it's owner.


 * Competition: An entity could be considered a "public organization" or a "public-private" company if it has an unfair advantage in the market due to government regulations or subsidies, which create barriers to entry for other businesses.

To verify whether an entity meets these criteria, a process of due diligence may be necessary. This could involve reviewing the entity's ownership structure, financial statements, mission statements, and governance documents, the home country's economic regulations and most importantly it's books. These organizations would pay a tariff of 50% by product/service to domestic market value, and these tariffs must be paid in the domestic trimetallic standard.

Lastly, to prevent loopholes, these tariffs shall also apply to individuals who are found working for the above mentioned organizations.

These tariffs are justified based on the principles of, paradoxically enough, and i shall provide a couple of reasons for this. Austrian economic policy emphasizes the importance of competition in driving innovation, efficiency, and economic growth. However, when entities have an unfair advantage due to foreign government subsidies, or may have a foreign monopoly due to government regulations, such advantages may stifle competition and harm the domestic market. By subjecting these entities to selective tariffs, it could encourage competition by creating a more level playing field. Austrian economics also argues that markets are efficient at allocating resources and prices, but only when they are free from government intervention. When government policies create market distortions, such as subsidies or regulations, it can lead to inefficiencies and misallocations of resources. By selectively imposing tariffs on "public" entities that benefit from government intervention, it could help correct some of these market distortions.

Tariffs are a form of economic defense, similar to military defense. Just as a country might invest in military defense to protect its borders and citizens, it may also impose tariffs to protect its domestic economy. In this view, tariffs are essential to ensure economic stability and security. This policy as such is not so much an economic intervention into the market but an attempt to protect it from foreign interference, as such is a policy of the military.

Democracy is often hailed as a system of government that allows for the representation of the people's will. However, the flaw in this system lies in the very nature of human beings themselves. Humans are inherently selfish and prone to irrational decisions based on emotions and whims. Therefore, allowing every individual to have a say in the governing process will only lead to chaos and the rule of the majority, which may not necessarily be the best for the society as a whole. Furthermore, democracy is also vulnerable to demagoguery, where leaders appeal to the base instincts and prejudices of the people to gain power. This can lead to dangerous policies and decisions that could harm society as a whole. A non-democratic system, on the other hand, would be less susceptible to such demagogues, as the decision-makers would be more insulated from public opinion.

Instead, a more efficient and effective system of government would be one where a select few, who are deemed to have the necessary knowledge and experience, make decisions on behalf of the population. This system would ensure that decisions are made based on logic and reason, rather than the emotional and irrational whims of the masses.

In summary, while democracy may sound ideal in theory, it is not a practical system of government due to human nature and the susceptibility to demagoguery. A non-democratic system, where a select few make decisions based on knowledge and experience, would be a better alternative for the good of society.

One possible form of non-democratic system that could achieve this goal is a fiscal technocratic system, where decisions are made by experts in the economic field. This system would be based on the premise that those with expertise in the economy are better equipped to make decisions related to the economy, rather than politicians or popular demagogues without any experience or understanding of economics.

In this system, representatives are appointed by a governing body or a designated authority, based on merit and qualifications, to make decisions on behalf of the people they represent. The selection process for these representatives could be based on a set of criteria, such as academic qualifications, professional experience, peer-reviewed publications, as well as a test based on Austrian Economics and the Economists already in government. This would ensure that the representatives are highly qualified and knowledgeable in economics.

It is important to note that a non-democratic system does not necessarily mean that there is no representation or that individual rights are ignored. Rather, the goal is to create a system where decisions are made based on merit and expertise, rather than popularity.

The ideal nation's borders would be expansive, encompassing the Balkans up to the Danube and splitting off on the Drava River, but stopping before the Mur, continuing with the Drava through Lake Dubrava and Ormoško Lake then following the established Croatian border to the Adriatic coast. The eastern border should start from the Chorokhi river and split off to the Oltu stream then continuing through it and the Norman then Başkale Streams extending all the way to Kurdistan, following south the euphrates river through syria then splitting off in lake assad west to Lake Jabbūl, continuing west south of aleppo until the city of saraqib then south to Maarat al-Numan, Hama, Homs and Al Qusayr to lebanon, lastly including all of lebanon down to the israeli borber. All the Ionian and Agean islands, as well as Cyprus included. With such a vast territory, the aurelian nation would hold significant power and influence in the region, controlling strategic trade routes and resources.

In terms of economics, the nation would have access to a wide range of natural resources, including oil, gas, minerals, and agricultural land. It would also be strategically located between Europe, Asia, and the Middle East, making it a crucial hub for trade and commerce.

Nation.png]] {{Title
National and international can often be seen as two sides of the same coin, or be wrongfully labeled as evil and good by those who don't understand that both national and international are two answers to the same question, that being "Where do a nations borders end?".

The nationalist answer is that a nation's borders end at its physical boundaries, which may be marked by natural features like mountains, rivers, or oceans, or by artificial boundaries like walls or fences, borders which are pressed against other nations. According to nationalists, the state has the right to govern and protect its citizens within these borders and to maintain its sovereignty and independence from other nations.

The internationalist answer is that a nation's borders do not necessarily need to be seen as a hard and fast limit on its sphere of influence or concern. Rather, the internationalist perspective believes that the world is an interconnected and interdependent system, or so to say that the world is "One Nation Under God ".

As such the Aurelian nation rejects this notion, therefore, it is, a nationalist state.

Society is a group of individuals living together in a particular geographic area or sharing a common culture, language, and/or social structure. It is a complex and dynamic system that is characterized by social interactions, shared values, beliefs, customs, traditions, and institutions. Society encompasses a wide range of human activities and relationships, including family, education, government, economy, religion, and art.

Society is also characterized by the way its members interact with each other, such as through social norms and rules that govern behaviour, expectations, and obligations. These interactions can be cooperative, competitive, or conflictual, and they can create a range of social structures and hierarchies, such as social classes, gender roles, and power relationships.

In general, rights are a set of privileges or entitlements that individuals have as members of a society, and they exist to protect an individual's freedoms and ensure fairness and justice.

However, not all rights are given to citizens only. Some rights, such as the right to life, freedom from torture, and freedom of religion, are considered to be universal and apply to all individuals regardless of their citizenship status.

On the other hand, there are certain rights that are granted specifically to citizens of a particular country, which may not apply to non-citizens. Excluding the right to hold public office which is not as much a right, as it is an obligation, and the right to private property which I have outlined in the Citizens First clause, the rights of the citizens will be detailed below.

FreeSpeak.png]] {{Title
Freedom of speech is the cornerstone of our society, it allows us to express our opinions and ideas, to engage in debates and discussions, and hold those in power accountable. It enables us to challenge the status quo, expose corruption, and demand change. Without freedom of speech, we risk falling into a state of tyranny, where those in power can silence opposition and stifle dissent. History has shown us time and time again that the suppression of free speech leads to a loss of civil liberties, and ultimately to authoritarianism. Furthermore, freedom of speech is essential for the advancement of knowledge and progress. It allows us to explore new ideas and challenge conventional wisdom. It encourages creativity and innovation, it fosters an environment where people are free to express themselves and to share their ideas without fear of retribution.

Some argue that freedom of speech should be limited in certain circumstances, such as hate speech or speech that incites violence. While I understand the concerns behind these arguments, I believe that limiting freedom of speech in any way is a slippery slope that can lead to the erosion of our fundamental rights. Instead, we should focus on educating people about the power of speech, and encouraging them to use it responsibly. We should promote dialogue and engagement, and create an environment where everyone feels empowered to speak their mind without fear of persecution.

In conclusion, freedom of speech is a fundamental human right that is essential to the functioning of any society. It allows us to express ourselves, to challenge the status quo, and to hold those in power accountable.

While this may be a controversial topic, I believe that the right to bear arms is an essential component of personal freedom and self-defence.

Firstly, I want to make it clear that gun ownership is not just an American issue, but a global issue. In many countries, citizens are prohibited from owning firearms or face strict regulations that make it nearly impossible to exercise their right to bear arms.

Gun rights provide the ability to protect oneself and one's family. In many countries, individuals are not allowed to carry firearms for self-defense, leaving them vulnerable to violent attacks from criminals. By owning a gun, individuals are able to protect themselves and their loved ones from harm, and deter potential attackers from targeting them.

Furthermore, gun ownership is also a safeguard against government tyranny. Throughout history, there have been many instances where governments have oppressed their own citizens, and the people were left defenseless. By allowing citizens to own firearms, governments are reminded that they serve the people, not the other way around. A government that fears its citizens is more likely to respect their rights and freedoms.

In addition to these practical benefits, gun ownership can also be a symbol of freedom and individuality. The ability to own a firearm is a sign of personal responsibility and self-reliance. It is a statement that one is capable of defending oneself and is willing to take responsibility for one's own safety.

At its core, freedom of movement is about the right to choose where we want to live, work, study, or travel. It is about the freedom to explore new cultures, meet new people, and expand one's understanding of the world. It is about the ability to seek out better opportunities, whether for personal or professional reasons.

Social issues refer to problems or concerns that affect the well-being of a society or a group of people within a society. These issues can arise due to factors such as poverty, inequality, discrimination, injustice, and social unrest. I shall outline my stance on some of them below.

From the moment of conception, the fertilized egg contains a unique combination of genetic material that determines the physical and biological traits of the developing fetus. Within a week, the embryo has implanted itself into the uterine lining and has begun to form the basic structures of a human body. By the end of the first week, the neural tube is forming, which will eventually develop into the brain and spinal cord. Given these biological facts, I argued that the fetus is already a developing human being and that terminating its life after the first week is morally wrong. I believe that all human life should be protected from conception to natural death, and that the right to life is a fundamental human right that should not be violated.

A fetus is not just a mere collection of cells, but a unique individual with their own genetic makeup and potential for life. Denying them the opportunity to live is equivalent to denying them their right to exist and exercise their first choice. Just as every individual has the right to decide what they want to do with their life, the fetus should also have that "right to choose" whether they want to continue, to exercise their future beliefs, connections and decisions.

There are alternative options available such as adoption, which can provide the child with the chance to live and make their own choices in the future.

Drug criminalization is a violation of individual rights and an affront to personal responsibility, individuals have the right to pursue their own happiness and make their own choices, so long as they do not initiate force or fraud against others. This includes the choice to use drugs, even if doing so may be harmful to oneself. By criminalizing drug use, the government is essentially punishing individuals for exercising their rights and making choices that affect only themselves. This not only undermines individual autonomy and personal responsibility, but also creates a host of negative consequences.

One of the most significant negative consequences of drug criminalization is increased violence, when drugs are illegal, the market for them becomes a black market, with all the associated problems of violence, corruption, and organized crime that go along with it. Drug crime diverts resources away from drug treatment and education, which could be more effective in reducing drug use and addiction. Instead, the focus is on enforcement, which often leads to civil liberties violations and overburdened criminal justice systems.

Intellectual Property laws stifle innovation by creating monopolies and hindering the development of new ideas, they limit the distribution of knowledge and ideas, leading to a lack of progress and slow economic growth.

Such laws often prioritize the interests of corporations and wealthy individuals over those commonly thought to be the targets of these protections. For example, pharmaceutical companies in the United States often patent life-saving drugs and charge exorbitant prices, often because of said patents not giving any incentive to find cheaper methods for drug production, putting them out of reach for many people who need them. Copyright limits the sharing of cultural and educational materials, such as books, music, and academic articles, which could have a transformative impact on people's lives.

I hold the view that all ideas are remixes of other ideas, i chose capitalism because the free market is best optimized for this exchange, and based on that i hold the view that copyright is a clear violation of freedom, as it restricts the free exchange and remix of ideas. In a truly free society, all individuals should have the right to what they create/produce but nobody should have the right to what someone else produces, even it derives from someone elses creation.

Here are some examples of problems caused by Copyright:
 * Patent Trolling
 * Pharmaceutical Patents.
 * Software Patents
 * Amazon's "one-click" ordering system
 * Gene Patenting
 * Monsanto's Seed Patents
 * Wright Brothers Patent War
 * De Beers Diamond Company against Synthetic Diamonds

Furthermore, creates an environment of political tribalism, where people are more concerned with winning elections and gaining power than with promoting individual liberty and limited government.
