Why hasn't anyone ask about the country ?
Are people from Lituania supposed to want the same as people from Brazil ?

It doesn't actually matter. Policies are policies and rights are rights regardless of country.

I speak with an American bias and assume everyone is speaking with bias from their home countries. That can't be helped.

I and many others have taken to writing out our ideas under the assumption that this takes place in a hypothetical future, or at least will apply in the future, when space travel is a thing.

  • sovereignty, and the necessary respect for mutual sovereignty, are the cornerstone of law
  • government may have absolute authority over is own services, but may not determine what services a citizen subscribes to
  • a decent portion of taxes must be self-directed
  • taxes apply equally to all valid legal entities
  • all legal entities receive UBI from those taxes
  • the only act of compulsion permissible by the government is to reduce compulsion, and may only be applied to the compelling party.
  • contribution of time, energy, effort, and attention may not be compelled
  • isolation may not be denied
  • strict separation of church and state
  • strict separation of government and bon-government financial interests
  • government pay is proportional to average income

Does everyone have to like it or do I just get to pick one and everyone has to live with it? If the latter, I might give technocracy a try…
