=Economics =

[[File:MeritCapLogo.png]] Getting Rid of PWA
PWA or Passive Wealth Accumulation is the ultimate enemy of free markets as it distorts the market in favor of big business so it should be abolished.

[[File:Merit.png]] Inheritance
Abolish Inheritance plain and simple and get rid of trust funds

[[File:Bankocracy.png]] Interest
Interest in another from of PWA so to get rid of it I propose that that we nationalize all the banks and then the new central bank will ban interest.

[[File:Bankocracy.png]] Debt
While this is another from of PWA I don’t see how we can abolish it practically so it will have to stay.

[[File: Georgist.png]] Land and Natural Resource Ownership
Do to the Fact that no one made Land or Natural Resource it makes sense that you should pay the community to use said land and natural resources

[[File: Georgist.png]] Land
I support a 45% Land Value Tax

[[File: Georgist.png]] Natural Resources
I support a 25% Natural Resource tax as well.

[[File:Bizdem .png]]Mondragon Model
This a from of Co-oop invented by the Mondragon Corporation. basically the workers own the company like a normal co-oop however instead of the workers making the decisions directly every 4-5 years they elect the the CEO,magers,etc. these can be recalled by the workers at any time. To get this after we get into power we will immediately temporarily nationalize them for 2-5 years as we pay back the owners after this they would be slowly switched to this model.

[[File: Cooperative Socialism.png]] Direct Co-oops and Small Business
Direct Co-oops should be encouraged on the local level via the Cleveland Model. Small business will be allowed to exist but can not have more than 15 employees.

[[File: Synd.png]] Unions
He supports strong unions and tripartite agreements. However he supports right to work laws as its the individuals choice to strike.

[[File:Corptism.png]] Nationalization
There are certain industry’s that need to be nationalized I will talk abou them here

[[File:Corptism.png]] Electricity
This a Public utility there’s no reason why this should not be in the publics hand

[[File:Corptism.png]] Ports and Airports
See above

[[File:Corptism.png]] Railroads
See above

[[File:Corptism.png]] Arms Industry
A private arms industry is harder to control and has gotten us into numerous wars it should be nationalized.

[[File:Corptism.png]] Airlines(kinda)
I do think there should be a National Airline though private companies should be allowed to operate

[[File:Corptism.png]] Internet Providers(also kinda)
It should stay private in most cases however in case of war it should be temporarily Nationalized.

[[File:Corptism.png]] Merchant Company(Kinda for the 3rd time)
I do think similarly to the airline’s there should be a state owned merchant company however private ones can exist.

[[File:Lange.png]] How would the Nationalized Industry’s be run [[File:Cybercom.png]]
They would be run under the Lange model at first with a project cybersyn helping the board.

[[File:World.png]] Trade
I support free trade generally however I do think that there should be a global regulater my proposal for which I will propose in Foreign section

[[File:Welf.png]] Welfare
I do believe in a modest welfare state

[[File:UBI.png]] UBI and NIT [[File:Chilib.png]]
I firmly believe in a UBI as it doesn’t punish anyone for being rich or poor as for the NIT it helps poorer families and eases them out of it thus stopping the welfare trap.

[[File: Gero.png]] Old Age pension
Once you turn 60 you will get a 1,000 dollar check every month.

[[File:Welf.png]] Healthcare
I firmly believe in Free Universal Healthcare that covers: Yearly doctors appointments, Vaccines,Surgery for life threatening things, and 50% for Other surgery’s however if you want more coverage you must may a certain amount for it every month.Private Insurance should also be allowed to exist.

[[File:Nooc.png]] Education
I do believe that Education should be free for everyone

[[File:Nooc.png]] Trade School
I personally think that most people should go to Trade School and only people with a GPA above 3.5 should be allowed to go to collage.

Housing
I firmly believe that Housing is the backbone of the economy

New Suburbs
Suburban lots will be restructed to 5,000 x 5,000 square feet for 75% of the suburban area. 10,000 x 10,0000 for 20% and 15,000 x 15,000 for the rest.

Public Redevelopment
In dilapidated areas the government will come in and redevelop it.

Infrastructure
Infrastructure is very important

Rail
Rail is very important and here is some ideas to improve it

High speed rail
High speed rail is already pretty devolved in South Florida however like all rail service it needs to be expanded down to the keys

Metro rail
Expand it to Miami Beach,Hialeah,Homestead, and Key Biscayne

Everglades Rail Link
A rail link will be built across the Everglades to connect Marco Island and Naples with the rest of south Florida.

Miami Central Station
Miami has multiple rail networks(Metrorail,Trirail,Brightline,Amtrack) yet it has no central hub thus one should be built.

Ports
All the ports need to be expanded

Airports
All the airports need to be renovated

Highway’s
Keep the toll system

 * Very poor: -5% (they'll get NIT)
 * Poor: 5%

 * Very rich: 44%

=Civics =

Political Sturture
I support Semi direct Democracy with a semi presidential system with ranked choice voting for candidates

Parliament
The parliament will have 999 members and will be elected every 3 years

President
The President will be elected every 6 years via popular vote however can be recalled at any time.

Referendums
After a law is passed it will go onto a quarterly referendum that is held 4 times a year.

District
South Florida will be divided into 6 districts:
 * Miami district capital: Miami
 * Ft.Lauderdale district capital: Ft.Lauderdale
 * Palm Beach district capital: West Palm Beach
 * Northern District capital: Port St.Lucie
 * Keys District capital: Key West
 * Western District: Naples

Copyright
Abolish it

Police and prisons
The police need to be demilitarized as its quite frankly ridiculous a great example of how ridiculous is it is the the FIU police have 50 M-16s and a tank so yeah that needs to go. As for prisons they should have more focus on rehabilitation that said the death penalty should stay in for the most serious crimes.

=Cultural/Social =

Cultral Individualism
To but it quite simply I don’t care really what people do provide d it doesn’t violate the harm principle

Race
Put an end to the self segregation of races so to do this move people around till the each area is as racially balanced as possible

=Technological = =Foreign = =Reform or Revolution = =South Floridan Environmental Seperatism= Now I while was a South Floridan Separatist before I realized I was one before was kinda dumb as south Floridian culture despite being somewhat different from the rest of the US is not that different. So now my reason here is Environmental as South Florida is at great risk as based on current estimates the Keys would be underwater by 2040 and Miami by 2021 with Ft.Lauderdale and Palm Beach Turned into a island do to climate change and the lack of action against it on both the State and Federal levels is a cause of concern for us thus I think its best we succede.

= Philosophy =

Utilitarianism
The moral code i am mostly aligned with is utilitarianism.I firmly believe that we as humans should help our fellow man.

Hedonism
Despite what i said above I also think it is important to treat and have fun yourself

Moral Subjectivism
While do think it is important for people to have moral codes i do believe that morals have no fundamental value on there own and thus even of you do not follow my moral code you are still human

The need to try
There is this old Roman saying that you only lost if you say you lost I firmly believe in that. I believe that no matter how bad it is you need to keep trying

Cartesian Anxiety: why having a stable foundation of knowledge is impossible
Do to the fact that knowledge is always changing and full knowledge is impossible this is bound to happen. That said I believe it is most likely to happen to smart people and the smarter you are the more likely you realize you have a high chance of being wrong.

On the Subject of mind and body
The mind and body are to separate things however they are connected if the body is to die that the mind will die and if the mind is to die the body will also die.
