Market Socialist Liberal Democracy

Market Socialist Liberal Democracy, clipped to MarkSocLibDem, is an economically left ideology that views markets as beneficial. Market Socialism was born in the 21st Century when Liberal Socialism and Market Socialism collided.

MarkSocLibDem wants widespread workers' self-management within the framework of a market economy. Each worker can either directly own their workplace or vote to elect their managers. Direct Democracy would be established within the workplace and within the government. Corporate donations would be banned (including donations from worker-managed collectives.) There would also be limits placed on the amount of money private individuals could contribute to electoral candidates. Competition between self-managed corporations would be encouraged to prevent technological stagnation.

The government would exist as an institution to protect the rights of the individual from predatory corporations, authoritarian leaders, and corruption. There would be limits placed on the government to protect it from degenerating into an autocracy or aristocracy. The government would be able to declare war and call for troops but would not be able to create a forced national draft.
