In 1215 King John was forced by rebellious barons to sign the Magna
Carta - the big paper - restricting the rights of the King and giving
rights to individuals.
The barons of the 21st century must be the 9.5 million High Net Worth
individuals who control $32 trillion in wealth throughout the world.
All these individuals making their money in a free global market, have
common interests and emerging political paradigms. None are well
served by war. None are well served by excessive taxation. None are
well served by tortuous government interference in their affairs. For
this reason I believe the time is right to call out to these modern
day barons to force the modern King Johns, the national governments,
to give up certain rights they now abrogate to themselves. These
include, the right to wage war, the right to tax beyond the Schumpeter
limit, and the right to interfere in the affairs of anyone. These
simple rights and their enforcement will free these individuals to
enjoy their wealth and allow others to create more besides.
Since 2015 is the 100th anniversary of the Manga Carta, lets see if we
can get the governments to agree in principal by this date to agree to
these three restrictions on their power.
Renounce the right to wage war - Japan did this and become one of the
wealthiest nations on Earth by investing the money saved in
modernizing their industry and improving their education system.
Switzerland has renounced war for 1,000 years - and as a result, one
of the wealthiest nations on Earth. This is the first rule of
responsible government - do not kill your citizens or cause them to be
killed or to kill others.
Renounce the right to levy taxes beyond the Schumpeter limit - The
Asian tigers did this and became the fastest growing economies in the
world. All nations that control their spending are wealthier than
nations that do not. This is the second rule of responsible
government - do no bankrupt your citizens.
Renounce the right to tortuously interfere with the lives of others -
Nations that restrict or do not have intelligence operations are more
peaceful and better places to live than nations that have such
operations. This is the third rule of responsible government - do not
lie to your citizens.
That should be 800 years not 100 - don't know how that got changed..
and one final observation;
A true king is not the one with the most subjects, but the one who
leads the most to royalty.
A true leader is not the one with the most followers but the one who
creates the most leaders.
A true teacher is not one with the most knowledge, but the one who
brings the greatest learning to the most ignorant.
Those who have accumulated the most individual wealth in the world, by
and large, with few exceptions have done so by creating wealth and
benefit for others. It is time they awoke and demanded that their
kings, their leaders and their teachers do as much - since they're
paying for 90% of verything anyway.- Hide quoted text -

Today the true king or warlord in charge is obviously the one that can
best snooker us while lying his infomercial spewing *** off, and
getting away with it. After all, look how far Hitler got with just
the puppeteering expertise of those smart Zion Yids, as without their
smarts and command over their very own minions he wouldn't have
achieved 10% of what took place.
Your "90% of everything" simply needs to become upward adjusted to 99%
of everything, because that's what the vast majority of what us
village idiots are in one way or another accomplishing on their
behalf.
Actually Less than 0.1% of humanity is fully in charge of and directly
benefits from all the rest of our learned expertise and hard earned
loot, and by far these rich and powerful have also taken the most of
global energy, food and technology resources. In some places it as
little as .01% that's in charge, and of those being the most wealthy
and powerful is directly because of that ratio having been the case.
All we have to do in order to get much of anything accomplished for
the greater good of humanity and our badly failing environment is to
insure that the rich and powerful keep getting their usual 99% fair
share of the loot in exchange for their doings and/or expertise of
damn near nothing.
As long as such rich and powerful folks are in charge of interpreting
the past and present, pretty much insures that the future is always
going to be interpreted in their favor, as well as for otherwise
taking the fullest faith-based puppeteering advantage of all that's
within their scope, of which we common folk are not entitled no
matters how much we've directly contributed to those solutions.
In order to alter or moderate this ongoing fiasco will demand that the
whole truth and nothing but the truth get told, and that we focus our
best talents and affordably accessible resources upon the most
obtainable goals, instead of our having to *** protect and reinforce
upon the past so that the status quo future only insures that the rich
and powerful remain in charge.
Obtaining large amounts of renewable clean energy is simply one of the
most essential basics, as without such energy that's made affordable
and in good enough supply, we're screwed. Getting the most of clean
energy per given amount of fossil and even yellowcake fuel is also
another fundamental essential part of that solution, as well as on
behalf of salvaging what's left of our badly failing environment
that's only going to get pushed to the outer limits as humanity
populates and continually consumes damn near everything in sight, as
well as for taking much of what's out of our sight until it's too late
to recover from such arrogance, greed and corruption that leaves our
environment gasping for clean air and clean water in order to stay the
course and sustain their status quo.
