Why save the world, when you can rule it?
Lets assume an occupation movement is successfull; we should be prepared; we should decide now what kind of government we wish to replace the current faux governments?
The following questions are really just to provoke thought and spark debate:
Ever rid Kim Stanley Robinson's MARS series? Similar issues arise, should we attempt to imitate the Martian society depicted in the books?
Should we elect a prime minister, or should a council of 7 (no ties unless somebody abstains) rule in the place of a single leader?
What do we think of the idea of passing a law forbidding a company to open more than one outlet in a city in order to aid smaller businesses? (Think how many Starbucks' are preventing the rise of local cafes).
Should we attempt to bring in genuine Communism?
Should we head for anarchy rather than government (And if we do, can I post sex pistols music vids on FO? Fuck it, in an anarchic society, I'll do it if I wanna)?
What should we do with the IMF? They've kept Africa poor and are maneuvering the rest of the world into the same situation.
Should we eliminate money?
Should prostitution be legal?
Should every single policy be put to public vote?
Should we move to a republic form of government?
Should Co-Operatives be the only form of usiness allowed?
