[[File:Keynes.png]] Keynesianism [[File:Keynes.png]]
Owfism supports the usage of Keynesian economic policy in order to address economic crises, thinking that the state should intervene in the economy in order to address the crisis, being against Fiscally Conservative economics, supporting increases in spending during the crisis in order to minimize the damage done to the population and to ensure a stronger recovery

[[File:Corp.png]] Big Monopolies [[File:Bankocracy.png]]
Owfism supports breaking up the monopolies in line with the ideas of Theodore Roosevelt, however, it would forbid previous CEO of the monopoly to have shares in the new companies as to prevent unintentional wealth accumulation. Owfism argues that monopolies have come back into the public scene, especially in Tech and Media Industries and that new modern Anti-Trust laws must be created to address them, with it supporting regulations that allow corporations not to become massive and to ensure competition.

[[File:Georgist.png]] Housing & Land [[File:Property.png]]
Owfism supports a mixed real estate industry with there being both government and private competition in order to allow the construction of more homes which solves the housing crisis. However, Final-Stage Owfism will mostly support competition with multiple government-owned housing companies, as part of its Market Socialist model. Owfism also supports the construction of homes specifically designed to house homeless people in them in order to save peoples taxes. Owfism wants to get rid of the suburbia and American Zoning Model and instead opt for mixed-use zones in order to make locations more accessible. Owfism will also get mad at NIMBYs due to their completely irrational behavior. Owfism also opposes rent controls arguing that it worsens the crisis even more. Owfism supports a progressive-style Land Value Tax in order to replace Property Taxes, this taxes the value of the land, which is why it is progressive, with no value land not being taxed while high value land being taxed at 20%.

[[File:Socliber.png]] Welfare & UBI [[File:Socdem.png]]
Owfism supports the implementation of a strong social safety & welfare net, with there being massive amounts of economic spending in giving people Welfare and other economic benefits and also high amounts of pensions for elderly people in order to equalize the rich and the poor. Owfism also wants the implementation of a 1000 $ Universal Basic Income as part of the strengthened Social Welfare Net proposed by it.

[[File:Regulationism.png]] Regulation [[File:Regulationism.png]]
Owfism supports a regulated free market, with there being high wages, child labor laws, anti-trust laws, environmental regulations and many other economic regulations in order to not allow companies to go out of hand and destroy the world and human health, advocating for Humanistic Capitalism

[[File:Synd.png]] Workers' Unions & Democracy [[File:Synd.png]]
Owfism supports the implementation of Workplace Democracy as an alternative to the current system, with it being backed by strong Workers' Unions, arguing that workers' need more control and freedom over their own workplace, advocating for unionizing most if not all businesses. However, it does not want to make it mandatory while still being against union busting practices.

[[File:Libms.png]] The Final Economic Model [[File:Libms.png]]
This is typically referred to as Final-Stage Owfism, this would be after the World Federation is implemented along with all other policies, an economic transition would also go underway, transitioning from a Regulated Capitalist economic framework  to a  Market Socialist economic framework  that has respect of civil liberties and has equal rights for everyone. This is because Owfism believes that in an united World, Capitalism would become obsolete, however, the concepts of a market wouldn't.

[[File:World_Federalism2.png]] Achieving World Unity [[File:World.png]]
Owfism supports World Federalism, however, unlike some other World Federalists, Owfism supports a more realistic approach to achieve it, in a step-based system, first beginning with economic globalization arguing that an autarkic/protectionist world cannot result in it ever uniting, it also supports weeding out Nationalist/Separatist sentiment by campaigning, saying that World Unity would lead to peace in our time, liberty and equality and generally a better life for all of us. Second, after integrating the world on an economic basis, it would then want for each respective continent to unify and then finally a World Federation is achieved based on the ideas of civil liberty, equality, privacy and progress. However, it opposes Neoliberalism not due to globalism but due to the wrong way it did the globalization of the economy, saying that it benefited corporations and not the people and led to the rise of Nationalism again.

[[File:Cball-USA.png]] West vs East [[File:Cball-China.png]]
While Owfism has critiques of both systems, as history isn't black and white, Owfism has a much more positive view of the West, due to the fact that the East (Russia and China) are autocratic regimes and have a wrong economic idea, with both of them being protectionist, they also are pretty nationalistic which make World Unity trickier. He also criticizes the East, more specifically China, for their draconian COVID-19 policy implemented in these recent weeks and lack of civil and digital liberties. However, Owfism also criticizes the West for enabling mass surveillance which curtails civil liberties in the name of counter-terrorism, with it barely helping against terrorism and more just an excuse for government and corporate spying. He also favors the West more over the East due to the concepts of Liberal Democracy and freedom of speech over the East's Authoritarianism and Police Statism.

[[File:Pragmat.png]] Pragmatism [[File:Pragmat.png]]
Owfism supports having a pragmatic and diplomatic based foreign policy and supports seeking practical solutions to problems, however, Owfism thinks some utopian ideas can be achieved through practical solutions and pragmatism, such as a Solarpunk world and Galactic exploration.

[[File:Liberal_Democracy.png]] Democracy [[File:Semidirect.png]]
Owfism supports a Semi-Direct Democracy under the framework of a Liberal Democracy, with citizens having the power to vote on government proposed legislation, referendums, petitions and other initiatives saying that it allows people to hold government into account. Owfism however still supports keeping some representative democracy, by still having elections to parliament/president.

[[File:Ectrans.png]]Environment[[File:Nuclear_Icon.png]]
Owfism argues that technology will be the way of solving this crisis, supporting energy alternatives to fossil fuels, such as Renewables and Nuclear Energy. Both proven to be effective and low carbon. The 3rd Industrial revolution must be lead by Nuclear Power and Renewables in order to fix Climate Change. Owfism also supports new technologies to tackle food shortages such as Ocean Farming and also the replacement of farm-based meat with lab-grown meat in order to save animal lives.

[[File:Deepe.png]] Animal & Nature Rights [[File:Deepe.png]]
Owfism supports the rights of Animals, saying that they like humans should have their own liberties. Also advocating for humanity to be in harmony with it's own nature, supporting a pragmatic way to reach Solarpunk as an end goal. It wants to remove animal harm and killings to create meat, instead advocating for painless lab-grown meat. It supports the idea of animal welfare, considering that animals are sentient creatures, it is against the idea of keeping animals in zoos and circuses and cages and says that wild animals should only be kept in sanctuaries or national parks, however, it is neutral on animal testing.

[[File:CultLib.png]] Cultural Issues [[File:Prog-u.png]]
Owfism supports LGBT+ marriage and also allowing them to adopt children and ban gender therapy operations, it also supports Affirmative Action but not on an extreme level, thinking that everyone should get accepted if they have proper job traits for the job and not based on their race or ethnicity or class.

[[File:Multicult.png]] Multiculturalism and Immigration Policy [[File:Multicult9a.png]]
Multiculturalism is supported by Owfism, finding it as a way to fix demographic crises and is also a good way to replace retiring workers jobs as to continue to keep employment high. Owfism also considers Ethnic and Racial Nationalism as a barrier to World Unity but also one of the worst forms of nationalism there is on this planet and can also serve as a nation ruining strategy.

[[File:Civlibert.png]] Whistleblowers [[File:Civlibert.png]]
Whistlebowers have complete right over revealing secret government data as the government should be a transparent and accountable organizations, Owfism supports an open source government and open source corporations.

[[File:Acidcomf.png]] Drugs [[File:Acidcomf.png]]
Weed and other safe drugs should be legalized but with some regulations while other drugs are to be decriminalized, as Owfism thinks victimless crimes aren't crimes.

[[File:Laicism.png]] Religion [[File:Progchrist.png]]
Owfism supports the separation of church and state, he also supports taxing churches thinking that they're like any other organization. However he thinks people are free to practice whatever religion they want and to believe in whatever god they want, advocating for there to be no official state religion.

[[File:Sec.png]] Death Penalty [[File:Sec.png]]
Should be completely outlawed. Killing murderers is still murder, you don't decrease the number of murders currently alive in the world by using the Death penalty.

[[File:Klep.png]] Prisons [[File:Klep.png]]
The Prison System shall be reformed based on the Norwegian Model of prisons, with the maximum sentence being of 15 years and it being completely rehabilitative and humanistic  modern prisons are to be replaced with more home-like place, which allows for rehabilitation to go on at a much easier pace.

[[File:Univhealth.png]] Healthcare Policy [[File:Univhealth.png]]
Owfism believes in implementing single-payer national healthcare service, believing that healthcare is a human right and as such it should be guaranteed for free and surgery should be free. Healthcare should be modernized to have modern ways of treating people from any kind of disease or problem, it supports the creation of a National Healthcare Service, which provides the single-payer free healthcare. However, it allows richer people to choose a private, costlier but slightly better option if they do not want to use the public, single-payer option, provided by the NHS.

[[File:FreeSpeak.png]] Education [[File:FreeSpeak.png]]
Owfism believes in free K-12 Education and free college tuition, despising the concept of tuition fees. It wants subjects to be taught based on facts and truth and also impartially, especially History. Thinking that history is being taught to favor nationalism and that should be changed, saying that humanity cannot ever know the true history of the world under their own country's POV and that history must always talk about real historical events regardless if they were bad for the country or not. Owfism supports free school lunches and wants improvements in school lunch quality, public toilet quality and school water quality. It also wants a more feel-at-home education system that is more entertaining to students.

[[File:Youth.png]] Youth Politics [[File:Youth.png]]
Owfism believes in youth politics, thinking that if the youth aren't taught politics then we may never have competent politicians ever again, arguing it as a necessary step. Schools shall have a special curriculum dedicated to it, which allows students to participate in school elections, being able to create their own political parties and overall learning them about the political game, how to properly campaign in elections etc. It also fully supports and encourages political parties having their own youth wings, as it allows young people to learn politics.

[[File:Demtrans.png]] Technological Progress & Space Exploration [[File:Space.png]]
Owfism supports technological progress, arguing it is a way to make humanity live longer, fix climate change, advance human enhancement, promoting social equality and finally filling the gap between socioeconomic classes. Owfism supports a Democratic form of Transhumanism which values E-Democracy and Semi-Direct Democracy. Believing that Transhumanism can be achieved in a Social Democratic/Regulatory Capitalist society the best. Owfism wants high amounts of funding, far higher amounts than today to go towards Space Exploration Technologies that will enable humanity to explore and have control over the solar system and possibly even the galaxy, in order to find other planets that truly have life on them and can be habitable to humans in order to fix overpopulation crisis and free up space on our own planet.

[[File:Space.png]] Space - New Political Sandbox [[File:Auton.png]]
Owfism allows for settlements to be created in either space stations or planets by humanity that also allows them to create any political idea they want, allowing them to be autonomous collectives under the Global Federation, in which they are capable of practicing their own political ideas, Owfism thinking that it allows even the most Utopian ideologies, especially Anarchist ones. Owfism believes this is a way to get citizens to be more politically active and to also be imaginative, it also thinks that space, since it is so unexplored is the best sandbox and as such, almost every ideology can be implemented under autonomous collectives if they want to. While they would be autonomous, some stuff would still fall under Federal control. In conclusion, Owfism believes that Utopian ideologies can be achieved now only in space through autonomous collectives under a United Country.
