Fellow Passengers and Crew,
The purpose of this communication is to announce and present to you a Democratic Socioeconomic Platform, in search of a Democratic Political Party.
This Democratic Socioeconomic Platform (DSeP) is available on the website of the Center for the Study of Democratic Societies at:
http://www.CenterSDS.com/DSeP.html
The purpose of this Democratic Socioeconomic Platform is to put forth a new, fundamentally just, democratic and systemically consistent political platform capable of, if implemented, satisfactorily resolving or significantly reducing a wide variety of contemporary serious societal problems, as well as effectively enhancing the General Welfare of All Citizens of a Democratic Society.
These problems include (but are by no means limited to) those involved with: automation, computerization and robotization; budget deficits and national debts; bureaucracy; maltreatment of children; crime and punishment; sustainable development; ecology, environment and pollution; education; the elderly; the feminine majority; inflation; international conflict; intranational conflict; involuntary employment; involuntary unemployment; labor strife and strikes; sick medical and health care; military metamorphosis; natural disasters; planned obsolescence; political participation; poverty; racism; sexism; untamed technology; and the General Welfare.
Socioeconomic Democracy (SeD), which is the essence of the proposed DSeP, can be viewed as engaging in Transformational Politics, that is, an evolutionary politics that consciously, openly, honestly, forthrightly, publicly, thoughtfully, peacefully, democratically and successfully works to realize Synergetic Inclusive Societal Improvement. It will be seen that SeD contributes significantly to the Positive Empowerment and Healthy Development of all Participants of a Democratic Society.
Precisely, Socioeconomic Democracy (SeD) is a theoretical and practical socioeconomic system wherein there exist both some form and amount of Universally Guaranteed Personal Income (UGI) and some form and amount of Maximum Allowable Personal Wealth (MAW), with both the lower bound on personal material poverty and the upper bound on personal material wealth set and adjusted democratically by all participants of a democratic society.
Serious discussion, further development and wide exposure of the ideas and possibilities presented in this DSeP are sought, necessary, and could be fun.
The Contents of this 2-Part Democratic Socioeconomic Platform are as follows:
Part I - Democratic Systems
