In My World

There is One World

No nuclear weapons
No intercontinental missiles
No landmines
No cluster bombs
No capital punishment
All guns are licensed
A maximum of 1% GDP can be spent on security

A maximum of 2 children per person
Condoms and contraception are free
Food, water and medicine are the great priorities
Education is mandatory for all 5-15 year olds
We wish to eliminate suffering
We are all in this together
We are as guardians

No politicians or ideologies
There are only administrators
The Universal Declaration of Human Rights must be respected
The Geneva Conventions are sacrosanct
All administrators are regularly elected
All countries are inviolate but meaningless

There are no tax havens or secret accounts
The rich subsidise the poor
Corruption is a great crime
Planning is long term
The least harm is the greatest good
Local and small is beautiful

Insurance is limited
Gambling and share dividends are taxed
Tax is high, gradated and simple
Things will never be equal
We move towards equality
We are the 99%

Energy is expensive
Meat is a luxury
Flying is taxed
Houses are insulated
A harvested tree must be replaced
The polluters must pay

Everyone has a home
Allotments and local produce are encouraged
Immigration is licensed
Racism, sexism and indoctrination are banned

You can only fight yourself
No More War
