Political Section - Main Page
DEMOCRACY is not an empty dream
but rather, a POSSIBILITY.
DEMOCRACY is NOT a right.
It is a REWARD to citizens who EARN it.
The first step is to stop believing the lies.
We live in Nations which are controlled by hierarchical political systems which I define as being Feudal Democracies. Despite the rhetoric, we, the citizens, are not only powerless, but we are actually the victims of these regimes. We are brought up being told that these political systems are democratic and sadly the majority of the 99% believe these lies. I hope to show that these political systems are NOT democratic. Despite the propaganda, it is the elite - The Establishment - the 1% - who rule and control the political system and so it is run solely for THEIR benefit. It is they who rule and control us and they are determined to keep us subjugated. In a true democracy it would be us who rule and control THEM. ALL citizens need to understand this.
The ONLY choice facing each and every citizen is to either accept the position of servitude or be determined to CHANGE THE SYSTEM and install a real workable democratic system. When I use the term ‘Change The System’ I am referring to the actual DESIGN of the political system - in other words, WHO really makes the decisions, WHO has the real political power, HOW are decisions made, WHO has the ultimate control. So, if you're a citizen who is tired of being treated like a serf - READ ON - for you cannot fix any problem until you understand that there IS a problem, and then fully understand the CAUSE of that problem.
But I must warn you what I am attempting to do is to get YOU to think outside the box; to actually question the political system which you take for granted, to think differently than you ever have in the past; to see the political system for what it really is - a dysfunctional, unstable, feudal system which will always eventually fail.

Visual difference between Feudal Democracy (Fake Democracy) and a true democracy Democracy 1.0
Quick definition of democracy
In the most simplest of terms: true democracy is a political system where the citizens NEVER have to give their political power away (to some politician). I use the term DEMOCRACY to define a political (social, ecomonic, financial, legal, judicial) system which is organised and DESIGNED, for the benefit of the citizens, where the citizens ALWAYS HAVE THE FINAL SAY, though within the context of a Republic (with a written Constitution).
It is important to understand that Democracy is NOT a case where the majority have control of the Nation but rather the system is set up to give as much freedom as possible to each and every individual citizen by protecting them from not only the political system itself but also from any collection of individuals whether they are the majority or not, in other words, any and all vested interest groups and monopolies.
Democracy 1.0
In Democracy 1.0 it is the Citizens who are at the top controlling EVERYTHING that effects them.
Constitution 1.0 will empower each and every citizen while ensuring that there are safeguards in place to deal with every threat to Democracy, especially from vested-interest groups, and monopolies, and will also ensure that the majority cannot abuse their power either.
Democracy 1.0 would also automatically include, within it, a controlled and thoroughly regulated Capitalist financial system.
Representation via politicians DOESN'T WORK - it is a fallacy of democracy. Consider the oppression of the citizens in the USA, Ireland, UK, Italy, Japan, Australia etc etc etc. Representitive Democracy empowers politicians and makes citizens nothing more than serfs asking for favours which the politicians may or may not take any interest in assisting. Democracy 1.0 would EXCLUDE any form of Representation via the politicians. In a true democracy the politicians would merely be EMPLOYEES of the State, NOT Rulers - NOT controllers - their powers would be strictly and thoroughly limited to SERVING the citizens. In Democracy 1.0 true citizen Representation is a Right and is organised and GUARANTEED within the DESIGN and framework of political system itself. The citizens would control the politicians, regulations, justice etc via a feedback mechanism - a separate and thoroughly independent section of the Civil Service - the OMBUDS.
This link will bring you to a short article about Fundamentals Of Democracy 1.0 - an overall list of some of the main differences between Feudal Democracy and a true democracy - Democracy 1.0 (will open in a new window) - then come back here for a longer discussion on Democracy 1.0 and its design.
Feudal Democracy (Fake Democracy)
In a Feudal Democracy The Establishment are at the top controlling everything.
Change the politicians - nothing permanently changes.
Change the political party - nothing permanently changes.
The Establishment rule - no matter who is in power.
Why is this so?
This is the way it is designed. The system is DESIGNED to be for the benefit of The Establishment, the politicians, and the 1%. It is designed to take ALL the power away from the citizens and leave them as victims. The political system is DESIGNED to appear as if there are ‘free and fair’ elections (which do not actually exist at all), and so the citizens continue to believe the propaganda and lies that this is their system, for their benefit.
All you have to do is open your eyes to see that the opposite is the case. In feudal democracies it is the citizens who are the victims and prisoners, and it is the Establishment who are above the law, untouchable and uncontrolled.
For example: the justice and legal system is DESIGNED to protect the Establishment and to utterly control and subjugate the citizens. In a Feudal Democracy the 1% become more wealthy and the 99% end up being virtual slaves.
So, the citizens remain powerless - as powerless as the serfs of medieval times used to be. The propaganda mainstream media talks of political choice; they talk of the ‘will of the people’ but it is all just a farce, a lie - a symptom of a crumbling, rotten, enslaving, facade of democracy.
Unfortunately, this is the political system which the 99% consider, and accept as, democracy, even though it oppresses and enslaves them. Unless the 99% realise that this democracy is a total SHAM, nothing will ever change, and the 99% will continue to be oppressed, aided by their own inability to QUESTION THE SYSTEM.
Note 2: An explanation of the examples I use
I started out writing the material in the Political Section for the purpose of bringing democracy to Ireland. As a result, most of the examples are based on Irish experiences. Nevertheless, all one has to do is look around the world at very many nations, eg the UK, the USA, Italy, Australia, Greece, France, Spain, Egypt, Japan, etc etc and easily find parallels in ALL those counties for the simple reason that all these political systems are built upon the same basic dysfunctional feudal hierarchical political system whichl ensures that the citizens are the victims of the system in place. So, in short, this Political Section is NOT just applicable to Ireland.
The Process Of Political Change:
- Understand the problem fully: see My Blogs list and The Feudal Democracy Section
- Understand the solution fully: see My Blogs list and The Democracy 1.0 Section (under construction)
- REJECT the present Feudal Democracy via the ballot box, or other democratic means (see Blogs 23, 07)
- Democratically force a referendum to install Regulations to enable the first steps to Democracy 1.0
- Install Constitution 1.0 and begin to implement Democracy 1.0: A Democratic system is an EVOLVING political system.
When I talk about change I mean changing the fundamental design of the POLITICAL SYSTEM itself. I do NOT mean from Capitalism to Socialism, I do not mean from Right wing to Left wing or visa versa, I do not mean Liberalism or whatever -ism you care to think of. In a democracy these terms and useless slogans are MEANINGLESS. They are utterly unimportant. I am talking about EMPOWERING the citizens - within a REAL democracy. That's why you need to read and UNDERSTAND BEFORE protesting or hoping for change.
Guidelines For The Visitor:
Unfortunately this Political Section will appear slightly chaotic for the first time visitor (it IS slightly chaotic!) so I've decided to layout how I consider the reader should proceed, in order to fully benefit from all the documentation in the Politics Section.
The order in which the documents should be read is set out below. There are repetitions, in some cases, dictated by the fact that this is an online set of documents and unfortunately a visitor may be led to any page on the site via a search engine etc and may end up skipping important pages. So please be patient, I think your visit should be very rewarding if you follow the route I advise.
Don't forget to spread the message
Please spread the word and try and encourage as many people as possible to awaken to the reality of the system which crushes and impoverishes them. Here is the short link to this page. Just copy and paste it into emails etc.:

Mission Statement
The ‘wishful thinking’ purpose the Political Section of this site.
Synopsis of the Feudal Democracy chapters
This gives a very short general description of the various chapters in the Feudal Democracy Section. Many will want to just skip from here to the Democracy 1.0 Section but I ask you not to do so. A FULL understanding of our present political system is a prerequisite for a successful understanding of what measures are necessary to bring Democracy 1.0 to your Nation. This battle for Democracy 1.0 must be as rational and planned as possible. THINKING and UNDERSTANDING must come first.
MAJOR SUB-SECTIONS
My Blogs On Politics
This page lists my blogs. I use a separate site for my blogs for the moment because they are shorter, though they are as important as the documents on this site, in that they focus on an individual aspect of politics - usually Feudal Democracy - and can help to further explain why we need political change by shedding light on the faults with the present political system which is in place. Most of the blogs are global in nature although not related to each other, give some indication of the rationale behind my proposals. Some of the articles are just as important as the eBooks here.
Feudal Democracy (A ‘book’ of 9 chapters)
This section is a ‘must read’ for every citizen in Nations where the political system is a feudal democracy - where the elite usurp the power of the citizens without being restrained or limited by suitable controls and regulations, and the citizens are at the bottom, being controlled and subjugated, like the peasants and serfs of olden times, having no real power at all. It explains WHY and HOW the so-called democracies make sure the citizens remain passive subjects of the political system. This section is a difficult section to read and I do intend to re-organise it as soon as possible. This section is very necessary for the simple reason that most citizens seem to be unable to join up the dots to see the big picture of an unstable dysfunctional undemocratic political system. If you read this section you hopefully will begin to see the true nature of how undemocratic our present political system is.
Democracy 1.0
All about principles, and organisation of Democracy 1.0. This section is a work in progress. I consider the Blogs and the Feudal Democracy section as much more important, for the flaws in the present democratic ‘arrangements’ in most nations MUST be fully understood before any real understanding can be grasped of what a true democracy should be.
The process of writing and uploading these Documents has begun as of February 2013. This will explain my proposals as to how a true democratic system should be organised and the main principles which would have to be included in the foundations of that political system - according to my reasoning, and my understanding of the numerous flaws in our present political system!
Constitution 1.0
The Constitution in a true democracy will be very different to that of a feudal democracy. It will certainly be a lot larger and more detailed for very specific reasons (to be explained later). It will empower the citizen and ruthlessly control the politicians and vested interests. These are some of the basic principles which MUST be included in a Constitution for any particular Nation to be truly democratic.
This POLITICAL SECTION will ALWAYS be a work in progress (especially the section Democracy 1.0 and the Blog List), with new additions and possibly also alterations to published material, as the subject matter is large and evolving.
