The Ownership

For the first time in our news articles to date, we begin a new article with the last sentence of one of our previous ones: however, we will never agree, anywhere in the world, that a military operation, whoever carries it out, takes all the wealth of their respective countries, which, for us at DirectDemocracyS, must be the exclusive and complete property of the population living in each geographic area. At the appropriate time, we will make known our plan for restructuring and reassigning wealth worldwide (renegotiating all contracts) to those who have every right to manage, control, and exploit it: namely, the population living there, who can, if they wish, enter into contracts that always respect real and concrete collective property, and always based on joint decisions, in the interest of the entire population.

The full informational article from which we took the last sentences can be found at this link:

We recommend that you read it before continuing with your reading.

We hope you did, and that you appreciate our pragmatism, which, combined with our impeccable consistency and our style of communication, makes us both beloved and unbearable, at the same time, for everyone. We admit that we are all part of a new system, rewriting the rules and shifting paradigms, with radical, often pioneering, and certainly intelligent and courageous innovations.

Those who believe we're utopian, or superficial, or even lacking in new ideas, should read our approximately 400 previous informative articles with an open mind to form a properly informed opinion. Some consider us too long, too complicated; others consider us simplistic, lacking in detail, and even insignificant. Finally, the most friendly consider us always defensive. We respond to this last statement with a question: you know that some of our visitors accuse us of only talking about what's convenient for us, and that we don't accept criticism and don't answer questions. First of all, for those who have followed us from the beginning, we really do talk about everything, and we have no need to defend our system, which, being an ongoing, completely collective effort, is so well done that it doesn't need defending. If we answer all your questions privately, and publicly, it's out of respect for you, and to explain the reasons behind everything we do, and to make it clear that we talk about anything, without fear of being inconsistent.

Let's go back to the sentences that have created so much amazement in those who don't know us from the beginning.

Like everything we write, our position is so detailed and clear that we won't discuss the first part, but only the part that has inundated us with messages, so we can get further details. Here's the most "surprising" part: at the right time, we will make known our plan for restructuring and reassigning wealth globally (renegotiating all contracts) to those who have every right to manage, control, and exploit it: the people who live there. They can, if they wish, make contracts that always respect real and concrete collective property, and always based on shared decisions, in the best interest of the entire population.

The phrase refers to the ownership of our entire planet, which must necessarily belong to all the people who live on it, unless extraterrestrials arrive and steal everything from us by force. All the resources of our entire planet must be owned by everyone, used in everyone's interest, to ensure everyone's well-being, security, serenity, and happiness. We haven't gone mad, and we're not dreamers; that's exactly what we'll do, because we've said it from the beginning. But obviously, not everyone reads everything, and if, after a few years, we repeat some details that are in our DNA, some people are left speechless.

Continuing the geographical, territorial, administrative, and electoral subdivisions, we believe that the riches of each continent must be the exclusive property of, and exploited in the exclusive interest of, the inhabitants of each continent.

We proceed in the same way for individual peoples, for individual countries, states, regions, provinces, urban and rural areas, down to neighborhoods, street blocks, apartment buildings, buildings, houses, apartments, individual rooms, down to every square millimeter. Are we exaggerating? Crazy? No, we are simply fair, equitable, meritocratic, and very attentive to the common good.

Not only ownership and interests, but all power to decide, manage, and control everything, in a detailed and continuous manner over time, must belong to those who live on our planet, in every continent, people, country, state, region, province, city, neighborhood, street block, down to the last millimeter. Those who live in every area, whether urban or rural, must own everything, demand that everyone's interests be served, without discrimination, and have the power to decide everything, collectively, comprehensively, in a detailed and continuous manner over time. We repeat: decide, manage, and control everything, continuously.

At this point, even though we've clarified everything we'll do—and unlike almost everyone else, we keep every promise we make and don't lie—everyone will be wondering: how will you do all this? To find out, as always, you'll have to carefully study our entire system, but we'll provide some explanations here too, shortly. The second question that arises is: are you just deluded? If you believe this, what will the rich, powerful, and various lobbies do to you? Again, we've already provided you with many predictions, details, and even detailed explanations, but keep reading and we'll provide you with more data.

The third question is always connected to the first, but it could be more nuanced: will you redistribute wealth? Are you communists? Will you implement a global minimum income? In this case, we've already answered some of your questions, but each answer will require dedicated articles, and we promise we will, at the right time, because these are important and complex topics.

To do all this effectively, every rule, every methodology, every instruction, and every rationale of our system must be respected by everyone involved. DirectDemocracyS already provides for the ownership rights of each of our official members, who collectively own everything, with the right to decide, manage, and control. We just need to implement it globally, taking all the time necessary, with the help of anyone who joins us. It will also be necessary to change and improve the mentality of everyone, first of all those who join us, and then everyone else. Please note: we wrote "change and improve mentality," not "manipulate," "impose ideas," and above all, not expect everyone to think the same way, because this attitude would be counterproductive and limit personal ideas. We already do this with "I," for personal ideas, and "we," for shared ideas, which allows us to be united in diversity. Joint decisions voted on in the manner provided for by our implementing rules are binding on all and must be implemented and respected by all, while leaving each person free to believe what they wish.

Will they let us do this? Surely not everyone will love us; in fact, many lobbies, and rich and powerful people, view us with suspicion and fear, and surely some of them will try by all means, fair and foul, legal and illegal, to boycott us, slow us down, and stop us. Obviously, they don't even have a chance of causing problems for us, and DirectDemocracyS will do many of these individuals and groups more good than harm. Let's explain, though we'll publish an informative article on these important details. We've said it several times before: we're not losers, resentful, or envious, who gain consensus through social hatred. We will never engage in Robin Hood-style politics. Those who are rich, powerful, and famous—thanks to brilliant ideas, hard work, risking and investing in what they believe in, respecting all laws, paying full taxes without discounts, precisely in the countries and areas where they make a profit, not exploiting their workers, and not destroying our planet—have nothing to fear; in fact, they will gain enormously with DirectDemocracyS. Let us explain better, simply. Everyone knows that by fundamental rules, DirectDemocracyS always starts by helping those most in need first, most, and for the longest time, without any discrimination. For us, it is essential to improve lives and solve the problems of the poorest, not to gain consensus, but because it is right, logical, and common sense that it should be so. By enriching and improving the lives of all the poor, generating more wealth without taking anything away from the rich, powerful, and famous, in ethically and morally correct ways, there will be a positive effect, even for those who are already rich. At this point, the lobbies and the deservingly wealthy will be able to choose whether to fight against us, along with all those who are right to fear us, or to side with justice, knowing they will lose nothing; on the contrary, they will gain from our system. DirectDemocracyS, without doing anything other than its work, has already created a divide between the rich and powerful who deserve it, and those who have no right to be so. By our calculations, there are many more deserving ones than criminals; therefore, while we take all necessary precautions, because many of the "bad guys" could be dangerous, we can nevertheless say that we fear nothing, because we are on the right side, the side of honest people, and this reassures us. If there is a fight to be had, we will do it, but we will forever eliminate corruption and illegality from our beautiful planet, taking all the time necessary, and offering those who do not respect the rules the chance to comply and change their attitude. Even in these cases , the majority will prefer legality, perhaps with temporarily lower earnings, to the concrete, almost certain, risk of losing everything.

The redistribution of wealth is mandatory, but it must be done gradually and intelligently, implementing equality and meritocracy, always together, and consistently, because only by dividing everything, without rewarding the best, does corruption arise, eliminates competitiveness, and there can be no growth, or even progress.

For those who have been following us from the beginning, the phrase "you are communists" will surely make you smile. We consider all Nazi, fascist, and communist ideologies, and all their offshoots, to be criminals. We consider all other traditional political forces to be failures, unjust, unsafe, and thieves of democracy because, after elections, they steal democracy from the people and hand it over to various political parties and their respective representatives, who, for many years, transform the democracy of elections into oligarchic partycracy. We also have a negative opinion of those who are anti-political or anti-system, because they waste precious time fighting those they can never defeat, and fail to propose any credible, effective alternative. As for a guaranteed global minimum income, it will take a long time, a lot of hard and complicated work, but it can be proposed if and when we win all the world's elections. However, we need courageous and intelligent economic and financial reforms, with radical and highly detailed measures, and we can ensure excellent living conditions for all, including a guaranteed minimum income, without giving anything away to those who don't actively contribute to the common good. We don't treat those who don't contribute to the common good as real, and in this too we are different and better than those who give away money, bonuses, and income to watch TV from the comfort of their couches.

If you want a definition of DirectDemocracyS, we are proudly meritocratic communists, and capitalists with a human face!
