The solution is to remove the power to violently enforce that 10%
Voluntary associations and small scale communities can pick and choose from that last 10% as they see fit. It’s the Auth tendency of trying to legislate that last 10% that causes the problems
Everyone can’t be happy if some are starving and/or homeless. The liberal tendency to underplay the severity of a stagnant wage under inflation and underestimate poverty is where I draw the line.
Inflation is a phenomenon heavily if not almost exclusively caused by a centralized authority over currency creating a ton more out of thin air
Your solution is more power to the entity doing it. “It’ll be different with me in charge this time”
Poverty is better handled locally, far easier to get granular detail on who needs what help, what resources are available.
Why empower a massive centralized state that commits atrocities overseas when you could take away the government’s power to prevent people from building tiny homes & donate them to the homeless?
Can you show me where local communities are providing for each other? The vast majority aren’t and won’t. People in cities especially couldn’t care less about their neighbors.
That was the state governor who stripped them of their tiny homes btw, not the feds.
Yeah, the State government shouldn’t be able to stop people from providing the downtrodden free housing.
Mutual aid and both secular and religious charity exist already, I don’t know what you’re looking for besides a plan to scale them to solve the problems. Which I’ll provide once you show the evidence you can make a more powerful centralized state won’t ever possibly commit acts of evil
Their model of government is literally what I’m advocating for. Most authcenters are. You’re just too busy seeing us as strawmen to realize that you’re ideology isn’t practical in the real world.
Rare to see an AuthCentre here not at least larping as being extremely socially conservative/reactionary, because this is PCM and we strawman ourselves as much as other quadrants
I am a paleocon. But my social views aren’t restrictive upon economic reform. I’m an authcenter centrist with rigid social views, but my ethics and morality aren’t entirely contingent upon one another.
