Beliefs
Economics

[[File:Welf.png]] UBI [[File:Welf.png]]
I believe in a universal basic income of 1000$ per month to help combat unemployment and poverty.

[[File:Marketsoc.png]] Employee Fund [[File:Marketsoc.png]]
As studies have shown that democratic workplaces are more successful than private ones and workers are happier in democratic workplaces, I believe in an employee fund to acheive a market socialist economy. Basically, larger businesses would be taxed a certain amount and these taxes would go into special funds that would be controlled by worker unions, eventually leading to workplace democratization

[[File:Trustbust.png]] Anti-Trust Legislation [[File:Trustbust.png]]
I'm aware that the employee fund may not be easy to implement, so regulating corporations to prevent exploitation as much as possible is the next best thing to do.

[[File:Welf.png]] Healthcare [[File:Welf.png]]
Healthcare is a human right, And I want to have Denmark-esque free healthcare.

[[File:Synd.png]] Unions [[File:Synd.png]]
Workers have the right to organize, and shouldn't be stopped from doing so. As shown above unions are an important part of transitioning to market socialism.

[[File:Guildsoc.png]] Guilds [[File:Guildsoc.png]]
Businesses would be organized by guilds. Guilds would be used for people of the same trade to have discussion and collaboration with their peers. Additionally, guilds would collaborate with consumers to choose the right decisions. This would make a well-organized and efficient economy.

[[File:Libsoc.png]] Local Planning [[File:Libsoc.png]]
Despite mainly believing in a free market, I believe that in certain emergencies and other situations where there is a lack of resources there could be local, decentralized planning similar to Rojava to distribute resources.

[[File:Regulationism.png]] Tax Policy [[File:Regulationism.png]]
The taxes I want are:

Land value tax. A lot of land is used wastefully and monopolized by the rich. This is why an LVT is necessary to punish and discourage such acts. Plus, in the places it's been tried, it's proven as quite sucessful. For example, Singapore has an LVT, and is rated as the second happiest country in the world.

Wealth tax. A lot of individual accumulate way too much capital, so who cares if we take some of it?

Severance tax. removal of natural resources is a huge problem.

Inheritance tax. Not on average people, but on the rich who don't have to work for their success because they were born into a rich family.

And finally, corporate tax.

[[File:Markets.png]] Trade [[File:Markets.png]]
I generally am pro-free trade, although I want to avoid trading with authoritarian countries, or exploitive forms of trading. Government

[[File:Semidirect.png]] Government system [[File:Semidirect.png]]
I believe in a Swiss-esque semi-direct democracy.

[[File:Reform.png]] Reforming American Democracy [[File:Cball-US.png]]
I want to reform american democracy to fight corruption, primarily abolishing the electoral college.

[[File:DefDem.png]] Defensive Democracy [[File:DefDem.png]]
If a party wants to abolish our democracy, they shouldn't be included in it.

[[File:Merit.png]] Civil Service Reform [[File:Merit.png]]
I want reforms to fight corruption and promote the merit system.

[[File:PolState.png]] Police [[File:PolState.png]]
I want police to mainly be concentrated on a local level, as police has commonly been used for corruption by the federal government, COINTELPRO being a notable example. Also, police brutality is a big issue and it's stupid that some people seem to think it isn't, but I think that it might be more useful to direct our police funding in other places, like background checks, to combat police brutality rather than defunding the police.

[[File:Civlibert.png]] Free Speech [[File:Civlibert.png]]
Free speech is very important. Even if someone is saying something bigoted, they still should be allowed to say that.

[[File:GRights.png]] Guns [[File:GRights.png]]
I'm pro-gun, banning guns won't stop criminals from using them, and doesn't do a lot besides keep law-abiding citizens from defending themselves. However, we still need some regulations, like strong background checks, gun training, and not being allowed to carry guns in public, and the main reason that America has so much gun violence is because it needs more laws like what I just said. (To prove my point, Switzerland also has lax gun laws and hasn't had a mass shooting since 2001, because it does have more regulations like what I said above.

The World

[[File:Isolationist.png]] Foreign Policy [[File:Necon.png]]
I'm a borderline isolationist, although not completely. I think that intervening in other countries usually leads to harm than good.

[[File:Multicult.png]] Immigration [[File:Multicult.png]]
I think we should have strong border control, but that doesn't mean i'm anti-immigration. Immigration is generally a positive, but we just need to make sure that the wrong people aren't crossing our border.

[[File:Strato.png]] Military [[File:Strato.png]]
The American government spends way too much on the military, but we should still have a strong military in case of a war.

[[File:World_Federalism2.png]] World Confederacy [[File:Confed.png]]
While moderately nationalist in the short term, in the long term I support a world confederacy. This differs from world federalism because the nations all have as much autonomy as they normally would, except that every nation is united by a pact of some sorts, and all share the same government system. Plus, since this would probably be somewhere in the far future, If we got in war with another planet, we would fight as one united nation.

[[File:Cball-NATO.png]] NATO [[File:Cball-NATO.png]]
NATO is a legal terrorist group that should've been abolished after the cold war.

[[File:Cball-UN.png]] UN [[File:Cball-UN.png]]
The UN does barely anything, however I don't see any reason why we should withdraw from it.

[[File:European_Federalism.png]] EU [[File:European_Federalism.png]]
I don't really know much about the EU.

[[File:Cball-China.png]] China [[File:Cball-China.png]]
The Republic Of China is the only legitimate China.

[[File:Cball-Russia.png]] Russia And Ukraine [[File:Cball-Ukraine.png]]
Fuck Putin and his jingoist kleptocracy, the war is completely unjust. However, that doesn't justify NATO taking advantage of the situation.

Social Issues

[[File:Gay.png]] LGBT [[File:Gay.png]]
I mean, they aren't hurting anyone so who gives a shit? You have to be 18 to take hormones though.

[[File:Acidcomf.png]] Drugs [[File:Acidcomf.png]]
I support the legalization of soft drugs and decriminalization of hard ones.

[[File:Egirl.png]] Prostitution [[File:Egirl.png]]
Nordic model approach.

[[File:Fem.png]] Gender [[File:Menslib.png]]
all genders are equals. modern-day feminism is meh though.

[[File:Mat.png]] Abortion [[File:Mat.png]]
Depends entirely on the situation.

[[File:Racenat.png]] Race [[File:Racenat.png]]
All races are equal, although I oppose affirmative action.

[[File:Cball-CSA.png]] Confederate Monuments [[File:Cball-CSA.png]]
How is this an issue? They're literally the people we fought against, of course we shouldn't have monuments to them. What next, King George The Third monuments?

Technology

[[File:Transh.png]] Transhumanism [[File:Transh.png]]
I am a transhumanist.

[[File:Spaceexplor.png]] SPAAAAAAAACE! [[File:Spaceexplor.png]]
I am a space colonialist. All of humanity should work together to colonize the milky way.

 * I'm culturally center, both progress and tradition are important, but i'm fine with social progressives and conservatives as long as they don't want to force their social views.

- yo you like Rojava too that's epic :)

- Your ideology seems good, I'll add but please get an icon so i can do so *How exactly do people create icons?

There's a template in adding icons and add your own thing on it

- I'm going to add you back if that's alright I'm curious which icons you use comrade

- Bruh you somehow became more based if you read my diplomatic section we agree on civic nationalism in the short term and world federalism in the long term.

- Hello, i've added you to my page, please add me back.
