There are heroes among us, living, acting, today. Some of them are forced to stay anonymous because of your tacit acceptance of aggressive and unconstitutional government practices (through paying taxes without checking who’s doing what on those money).

But some of our heroes are in the open, on a limb, to stand against what we all should stand.

These heroes are ours: the more than 80% of the population which is sold, moved and lives to work for psychopaths.

One of our heroes is Julian Assange, founder of wikileaks, now hosted by the Swedish Pirate Party, our heroes themselves, and writer of UNDERGROUND:Tales of hacking, madness and obsession on the electronic frontier. Here’s a recent interview with him at democracyNow.

Wikileaks archives openly government documents anonymously uploaded or sent by whistleblowers, our anonymous heroes who feel that their government or agency does not do what the tax-paying public expects from it.

This is a good occasion for reflection and action.
The action: if you work in a government structure (no matter what country you live in) and become aware of unconstitutional activities or simply about government redirecting public money into private pockets for unlawful reasons, you can, anonymously, send the proving documents at wikileaks, for any citizen to see what’s going on.

The reflection: governments are administrative structures which are supposed to represent the public agreement, and act accordingly. From this perspective, there is no constitutional reason for any democratic country on earth to allow generating and handling of secret documents by a public body.
Any secret government dealings made on public money are unconstitutional in a democracy. Beside this fundamental principle, we live in the information society, there’s no practical justification of delaying the publication of any information of the government activities, whichever that government is.

In an information society, the democracy can be preserved only by keeping things open to the eyes for the tax-paying citizen. That’s why these guys are our heroes, celebrate them and help them as much as you can.

The fake journalism and the government says that the last batch of documents received by wikileaks are of military nature and so the information should be secret because it affects the security of U.S. First of all, anything paid from public money is bound to be public, military information included. Secret services should be dismantled too. Moreover, it’s ridiculous to interpret the latter leaks as a U.S. security issue. What’s the U.S. security having to do with Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran etc.? Where does the U.S. end? Are its borders supposed to include the whole earth? Why is the U.S. and other countries still military present there? It is because public money are tasty to some private pockets, that’s why. It’s the security of those who pocket the public money at stake here, not U.S.’s not other countries’.

The only type of secrecy acceptable in public documents maybe tolerated in terms of obliterating names or locations, but the flow of public money should be traceable to the last cent by any tax-paying citizen. And, whenever the amount of money looks suspicious in the eyes of any citizen, then anybody should have the lawful right to force the government to disclose complete information about the parties involved and explain these transactions.

It is the security of the capital flow that’s at stake here. But it’s not your capital flow. If you’re among the 80% with no capital “to flow”, then whose security are we talking about and whose governments are these?

These governments are calling for a black swan again by ignoring the reality of their own populations. The contemporary governments are becoming as outlandish as the bureaucratic governments in the communist world a few decades ago. They should not expect a different result.

However, Extremistan’s blackswanity can be tempered: write in your country’s constitution that no personal wealth can be larger than a lifetime of average wages.
Only then the situation will simplify naturally: only then big shots are limited in their power to influence your government, only then will be pretty hard to buy politicians, only then will the politicians remember permanently why they are in public positions, only then the elections will reflect the democracy, only then freedom, democracy and sovereignty could have a meaning, only then the market will gravitate the reality, only then the armies will return home, only then wikileaks would become just a site pointing at incompetent administrators, only then the coming insurrection by the invisible comittee may become just a poetic book written out of boredom, only then Žižek‘s First as Tragedy, Then as Farce would be just a boring list of old truisms.

Until then though, go ahead, learn, read and write books, talk about national security, do research and publish, work and have children, talk about human rights, watch the TV, hold conferences, ride your car, feel good about yourself, you’re just accelerating along towards the global catastrophe.

All the seats were occupied off 666 (1972) by Aphrodite's Child. Wish u feel like we do.

Vorbeam cu o prietenă despre ideea de vot prin taxe: într’un an ai de plată la Stat o parte din venit, taxele, ș’ar trebui s’avem de ales fiecare ce parte din totalu’ taxelor revine cărei teme administrative: sănătate, educație, lege, cercetare etc.

Sunt convins că ideea asta șade multora în cap, și are un fond sănătos, e, pân’la urmă, o metodă directă de vot asupra/reglare a administrației.

Problema’i că, dacă nu se aplică principiu’ limitării averii totale personale la necesaru’ unei vieți de om, atunci ăl mai bogat are, practic, cu mult mai multe “voturi” de’mpărțit, ș’atunci tot ce este în principiu public/comun, devine tot proprietatea bogatului, adică anulează intenția democratică a reglării directe a structurii taxelor de către fiecare.

D’aia zic: dacă vrei democrație, tre’să scrii principiu’ limitării averii totale personale în Constituție cât mai repede, abia dup’aia are sens să reglezi individual structura taxelor.
