Neo-TDRHism

Neo-TDRHism is the new and current ideology of ThatDudeRightHere. It is civically center-libertarian, economically variable, culturally  centrist, and.

It is similar to TDRH's old ideology, except that it has a focus towards,  , and.

The reasoning for the ideological shift
During the COVID-19 pandemic, he was tired of witnessing the   become richer, mistreating their workers and sending small businesses to the dust. At the same time, he opposed re-imposition of lockdowns, which he felt as a "betrayal to the vaccinated".

Then, came the Russian invasion of  Ukraine, which he largely blamed on  Vladimir Putin's bureaucratic government system and imperalist ambitions, which made him shift more towards libertarianism and.

Overview
His mode of production would be a syncretic one, combining elements from /,  ,  , and. This would be considered Tripartism, because it advocates for harmony and class collaboration between the working class, the owning class, and the government, with the government being the mediator between unions and the government.

To him, the ideal economic system would:
 * [[File:PCB-Capital.png]] Facilitate consistent economic growth.
 * [[File:Keynes.png]] Keep unemployment below 5%.
 * [[File:EconInflate.png]] Keep inflation below 3%.
 * [[File:Fiscon.png]] Keep healthy government accounts.
 * [[File:Transh.png]] Maximize productivity growth.
 * [[File:PCB-Helv.png]] Keep taxes relatively low but sufficient.
 * [[File:Markets.png]] Allow business and innovation to flourish.
 * [[File:Merit.png]] Provide opportunity for all.
 * [[File:DistributismIcon.png]] Make sure those who are moral live in comfort and prosperity.

He supports balanced budgets in times of economic growth and  deficit spending in times of economic recession for his fiscal policy.

These are his five principles of regulation:
 * Prevent monopolistic takeover of markets and ensure fair competition.
 * To protect consumer's and worker's rights.
 * To protect the environment.
 * To protect against destructive asset bubbles and speculation.
 * To prevent high housing costs.

[[File:Trustbust.png]] Free and fair markets
Neo-TDRHism advocates for what he calls "fair competition", meaning that the state should prevent businesses from practicing uncompetitive practices in order to keep the economy free.

Corporate welfare and lobbying can be easily described as "socialism for the rich, capitalism for the poor" and thus, needs to be abolished. Firms that are considered "too big to fail" should be allowed to because that just ends up creating favoritism within the economy and leads to what he calls.

He wants to bring back the strong anti-trust laws of. Any business caught doing monopolistic practices should be broken up and smaller companies will be left in the dust of them.

This is what he would do to crack down on corporations: He also doesn't buy into the idea of "corporate personhood".
 * Break up all existing monopolies and trusts.
 * Crack down on [[File:Ingsocf.png]] surveillance and censorship by [[File:Big Tech.png]] big tech corporations.
 * Prevent conglomeration of existing corporations.
 * Cut off any and all corporate subsides.
 * Prevent corporations from keeping workers from getting breaks.

[[File:Indust.png]] The public or private question
Neo-TDRHism believes in a mix of private and public property. He believes that most of the economy should be privately owned, seeing mass state ownership of the economy as disastrous, for example most. However, he is fine with "natural monopolies", that is, things which don't rely on competition, being state-owned. Such things include infrastructure, certain transportation methods (e.g. bus systems and railways), electric grids and water/sanitation systems.

In the case of a large state, however, as such state can't handle enough to be efficient in handling those things all across the country, he supports local state-owned branches.

will be run in a  like way, but they must follow state regulations to ensure they follow the five principles of regulation.

As for local, small and medium-sized enterprises, they would ideally be run as, albeit this will not be inforced. The reason for this is because the workers gain the benefits and profit with little regulation other than a few basic things.

[[File:Georgist.png]] Housing
On this issue, however, he supports high state regulation, calling it "capitalism at its worst". He supports a very regulated market consisting of municipal,  co-operative,   of housing, with private renting being very limited.

[[File:Bankocracy.png]] Banking
Neo-TDRHism believes that there needs to be a strong national bank, as seen in many countries. However, he will still allow private banks to exist, as well as credit unions, however how the bank will be run depends on the size of the bank. If the bank is large, then it will be run as usual for large businesses. If it's a small or medium-sized one, then a credit union will be used.

[[File:Synd.png]] Workers' Rights
Neo-TDRHism believes in strong workers' rights and the protection of workers from exploitative practices.

For unions, they themselves are double-edged swords. On one side, they can make workers fight for better working conditions and expanded benefits, especially considering that most of the world has poor working conditions. Despite these, they can be prone to corruption, and unemployment can be increased.

As for union busting, he generally regards it as unconstitutional, therefore it should be banned except when the union is striking out of genuine greed, corruption or exploitation. Other than that, NO union busting.

For workplace democracy and  worker guilds, he is supportive of them, as the former gives workers a say and the latter allows for hiring based on. Every few years or so, the workers can democratically elect their CEO, COO, manager, etc. As for guilds, there will be certain types organized like the medieval guild system.

[[File:Regulationism.png]] Taxation
The types of taxes in a Neo-TDRHist society would be:
 * [[File:Georgist.png]] Land value tax
 * [[File:EconProg.png]] Wealth and income tax (mix of flat and progressive)
 * Very poor: -5% (they'll get NIT)
 * Poor: 5%
 * Lower middle: 10%
 * Middle: 18%
 * Upper middle: 24%
 * Rich: 34%
 * Very rich: 44%
 * [[File:Soccap.png]] Value added tax
 * [[File:Long.png]] Corporate tax (exemptions for [[File:Ecocap.png]] )
 * [[File:Envi.png]] Carbon tax (as a punishment for polluters)
