Armando Ernesto Alferez: Utopia5:The rescue and re-making of humankind through a Social-Market system

Summary: show/hide

Summary

This utopia suggests ideas to solve world problems. This utopia bases itself on several premises. Firstly, this system believes that a lot of the problems that we suffer right now are the result of the search and maximisation of power to achieve our needs and unlimited wants. As a result it is necessary to regulate this unequal existence of power while improving the social conditions as well as the material and immaterial wealth of all humans. Secondly, in order to restore international peace and to achieve a future for human kind, it is necessary to improve countries internally first. This can be achieved by using successful measurements from different social systems that help create a fair and more rewarding system for all individuals. Even thought it may sound like something that exists in some systems right now, these actual systems fail on the sincerity of their goals and the implementation of their policies. Thirdly, just like in any successful business organization, the happier all members are the more productive they become and the more they tend to work towards personal and collective goals. Finally, We cannot agree on many things in the international sphere and avoid fierce competition unless we improve the standard of living of all humans first. Further, it is imperative to convince individuals that cooperation and right planning can bring great rewards for all individuals without the need to manipulate or to turn against each other.

It is important to see that once people overcome their fears and need to manipulate situations, once people improve their living standard, once people understand how human history has developed in chaos and survival of the fittest and how this system will bring human more destruction than benefit, once human learn to achieve common goods through mutual cooperation and become aware that it is possible to achieve great things without maximizing material utility, once humans learn that the maximization of utility it is impossible without creating conflicts and once humans realize that there can not exist satisfaction of unlimited material wants through the limited material resources. Then we can set this system aside and jump into a new system or stage of human history, where mutual cooperation, effective use of resources are for every body's benefit. Then humans can start growing internally where they stopped thousand of years ago due to the fear of the unknown and the loss of confidence of how things went.
Then humans can start growing spiritually and mentally to start discovering many of those things that only exist on their fantasies such as the capabilities of our brains and the level of spiritualism that takes us closer to the search of perfection. Then humans can start discovering new worlds and make sure these worlds will be looked after and not only exploited for selfish reasons until they are finished. Then we can consider humans not as a source of evil and destruction but source of life.

We make sure; we create a nation of winners and mateship and not a nation of selfishness and losers. The actual economic and social system promises a lot of things but does not deliver, it should be the government's responsibility that every member of society has the means to achieve personal and collective goals. Things like "economic discrimination", "educational discrimination", "physical discrimination" and others used to justify power and subjugate populations will be abolished. The system will not promote things that will discriminate nor that violates anybody human rights. Unlike the actual system that only gives to those who master the things considered important by the people in power or the "apparent" majority. Meanwhile, the rest of the populations are in disadvantage, since their qualities might not be recognised as important. In addition, when these individuals try to strive for something better there are restrictions through economic discrimination, racism, gender and others. In order to improve the actual system all these issues have to be addressed and positive situations of the actual system have to be maintained. Such as tolerance, healthy competition, enjoyment of material things with moderation, system of improvement, task oriented and all those things that lead to improvement and that don't violate the rights of others. The aim here is to improve social conditions equally among all humans, as an incentive to accomplish goals. This system will make sure that every body equally enjoy favourable conditions since all humans are of equal value and full of potential.

Any person regardless of skin colour, shape, or any other physical, speech or any other difference is a human as well and deserves reciprocal treatment. In other words every one of the citizens has an equal value in front of the eyes of the law. In order to justify this it is necessary to establish a new way for the government to visualise citizens. For instance, through the taxation system, every citizen becomes a shareholder of the country and the government will be the management in charge of creating wealth and security for every one of the citizens. In this sense every citizen has taxes working for them and the common good. Nevertheless, it is impossible to say that every body will have the same amount of income or money due to the difference on effort, ideas marketed, original amount of resources or the extent of their ambition. Consequently, economic disparity seems to be a given. The danger with economic disparity is that creates difference in power, for which equality must be establish through a bill of rights. These rights will make sure that such difference will not affect the value of each citizen in society nor will allow damaging power relationships to be established. These changes are suggestions to help solve the problems that the actual system faces and creates such as inequality among citizens, the need of survival of the fittest and the consequences that it brings. The urgency to improve the system comes due to the overwhelming problems that humans are facing now and that will face in the future if such chaotic system continues.
