Hedonistic Capitalism

Hedonistic Capitalism is an ideology that unites Authoritarian Capitalism and Libertarianism with the purpose of indulging and encouraging everyone's vices and damaging habits to the extreme, feeding the pleasures and addictions of the population to keep them compliant. By legalising and normalising basically all goods and services, including drugs, prostitution, gambling etc. Hedonistic Capitalism's end goal is a one-party state, where an all-powerful government is never challenged, and their methods of governing go unquestioned because the public are so placated by their freedom to live to excess to worry, ethics have been replaced entirely with what makes them happy in that moment, and they wouldn't jeopardise their access to these pleasures by biting the hand that feeds, instead complying with all of the governments demands to ensure their ongoing short-term satisfaction.

Additionally, Hedonistic Capitalism seeks to deal with the growing number of people living long past their working age, and becoming a drain on the state, by perpetuating living to excess, so that more and more people will naturally die after their physical prime has passed, but before they enter retirement age.

Personality
HedCap acts like a hedonistic manchild who dislikes being told what to do. He has no regard for his privacy, has no ethics or morals, and is only concerned with what will give him a dopamine hit in any given moment.

Friends

 * [[File:Authcap.png]] Authoritarian Capitalism - I don't care if you've bugged my house and read all my emails. So long as I get to have all the stuff I want, I don't need any privacy at all.
 * [[File:Hedonism-cloud.png]] Hedonism - Live fast, die young! Even better when you've got a state on your side. I'm doing wonders for the economy by dying at 49 and spending all my money on heavily-taxed cocaine.
 * [[File:Libertarian.png]] Libertarianism - Did it ever occur to you that a big government might not just let you do whatever you want, but actually force you to do whatever you want?

Frenemies

 * [[File:Libsoc.png]] Libertarian Socialism - Right on letting people do what they want, but if I work harder, I should get way more cocaine than some lazy deadbeat who can't even work through his hangover.
 * [[File:Annil.png]] Anarcho-Nihilism - Life is so meaningless, right? Doesn't mean you can't go with the flow though, as long as it gets me cool stuff.

Enemies

 * [[File:Patcon.png]] Paternalist Conservatism - OMG drugs are not even that dangerous. Besides, they've got way safer now that there's a competitve market to keep the standards high. Not that I care anyway... I don't even want to grow old.
 * [[File:Cdem.png]] Christian Democracy - I'm not going to church on my day off!
