Personally, I would like to change the tag used for those who are given temporary control over the affairs of a nation. Government has too much negativity held to it. Obviously, the regulation of how this would work along with the legal right a position may hold have to be looked at in detail. Right now, what is supposed to be working for us works to limit our ability and increase our reliance of a high finance. I hold designs on changing that.

Yesterday, I listed a few things which I see wrong in society. Not wrote as a conspiracy just as the way I see it. In this post I may use the word "Steemit" when I use Steemit, I am relating to an entry point to the Steem block-chain. This can be supplemented with Steempeak, Busy or any other entry point.

This post is about what is though and not about what could or might be. Government, Those who represent the interests of a nation.
Definition of Government on Wiki.

Government is a means by which organizational policies are enforced, as well as a mechanism for determining policy. Each government has a kind of constitution, a statement of its governing principles and philosophy.

Government is run like any other company out there, to maximise its profitability. This is not something I am talking about. Profit is a basic necessity to provide the ability to keep improving on various objectives. This post is looking at what is, but is what is and abuse of design.

• Financial

  • Finance for a country is gained by debt. The amount of taxation which can be imposed on the people and companies is what will be used to value the amount loaned. The abuse comes here from the finances. People accepting payments to provide permits for construction to the highest bidder. The debt incurred is distributed out toward the people of the nation. The use of private companies for the maintenance of a nation. A constant pilfering of a nations wealth that the design allows. Those who hold control over this system see no advantage to changing it.

• Industrial

  • This follows on from the finance. Payments are offered for the passing of applications and accepted. Tax benefits and tax relief is given to those who get too big to fail. The burden of support goes back again to the general populous. The destruction of environment by big industry is ignored for the finance they can provide. The cost of clean up again falls to the tax payer.

• Education

  • Education is a basic need today. The ability to read write and make numerical calculations should be placed at the top. Every effort should be made to ensure every person gains these abilities. The majority of time, this is what happens.
  • After this initial basic level of education, the information we are provided is often one sided. We are put in a room and told here are facts. These are items of information we must absorb and remember, names, dates, instances, places and people. Not knowing these things will mean you are not as smart as those who do remember. This provides a false measure of intelligence and can lead to subduing the genius inside.
  • We are not educated in schools today, we are trained to accept instruction and comply.

• Medicine

  • Over priced to start. Release of drugs which have proven harmful in tests through falsified documentation of results. It is an industry design around making profit, not around curing people. Prescriptions are made for the dollar the prescriber will receive. The benefit to the patient is ignored, also ignored are the harmful effects.
  • A reliance of need from some of these drugs through side effects from the original drug is a regular occurrence. Leaving a patient the burden on finance to pay for this medically induced need. Held hostage to the pharmaceuticals.

• Housing

  • The cost of Housing is a constant rise, requiring more than one member of a household to be in the workforce. The remuneration for employment does not rise at the same rate as a house price. House prices will rise faster, within the next two generations children will make the final payment on their parents mortgage. If not the banks will default and a lifetime of payments is dis-regarded and a house re-possessed. This property is then sold by the bank to regain the interest payments it will no longer receive.
  • The list of wrong doing banks do through location is mesmerizing. Evading payment of tax for transactions by use of off shore accounts while the trade happens internal.
  • The dealing with known criminals for any kind of illegal activity. From drugs, financial fraud, laundering, any time they are found to be of "negligence" location or an individual branch is given blame. In many cases a fine imposed, 25 Million and the profits gained could be as high as 250 Billion. Somehow the maths does not work right for me there and can only encourage the same behaviour.

• Military

  • Taking all the above and adding a military. The misuse of a military to enforce the will of a private corporation on a foreign nation.
  • The involuntary testing of chemicals on military personnel.
  • The financial and emotional drain manipulated wars get placed back again on the tax payer.
  • The use of a military to control its population.

• Bribery

  • Bribery is rampant in all the above.

Finance seems to be the common goal in all the above.

I want to combat all the above.
It seems I need to bribe you to do so.
How much do you cost?
.

It seems to me. Somewhere someone pulls strings or maybe it is the way things are right now. Maybe things have always being this way. In a world where we fight for freedom justice and a right to life. Is the structure of society we live in, the best we can do?

Just talking in Steem and avoiding talking about a specific politician. Everything I have said here has been a concerned voice from another on Steemit and a member of a Discord server related to Steemit. Not every instance may apply to every country or company.

When you take all that too Steem it seems pretty much the same. We have a politician who gets a vote and does not represent those who gave the vote. The power of the vote is determined by the thickness of the wallet. This is a flaw in the reward system in general.

I know this will not fly. But! As I am told, the job of the witness is nothing more tan to keep the block-chain going. They are not there to represent ideals or points of view. Yet it is vote related that put them there. Without them there is no chain, Without us there chain becomes useless.

The interests in the block-chain seem to rely mostly on the finance side. My own thinking leans toward, it should rest with the foundation side. Building uses for Steem outside of the digital world, and using Steem to provide the initial finance to these projects. Can we get enough minnow dolphin and plankton support to begin these projects?

One name one vote although this does not change the fact some will have many accounts. I do think a method could be designed to introduce a reduction in the ability to have one person vote with more than one account on the same topic. Who gets the most votes rises to the top and gains rewards for having the server running nodes. This gives those the community see as valuable a representation of that value.

When it comes to choosing a direction of Steem. How the platform works, which rules will be implemented or changed. These I think should get one vote per person. Those who are active on the platform at the time a suggestion is made all get chance to voice their opinion. This can be done through an agreed poll. Maybe a witness can be added to the agreed amount of witness and an increase to 22 to accommodate this. Having a node run a poll station. This node would not have much use in just that capacity other functions could also be added.

With each option of a fork, Members could all go cast their vote. Each witness could write about the direction they want to go and why they think that is the best option for Steem. Is not Crypto about reducing the ability of finance to control what we can and cannot do?

Crypto is only Crypto until we do something with it.
Let's use it to make a change.

Government is not there to make policy. It is a mechanism to determine policy. This mechanism works is supposed to work with votes from the people. This is not how things work today. When your vote no longer provides a voice for how you would like to live. Your vote is void. Do we really have a live vote in the societal system of today?
