Rules For When I Rule the World

 'Tis I, Supreme Ruler Queen Nymphae, and this is my royal decree.

For far too long, our kingdom has been tainted by greed, corruption, and cruelty. Dumpsters are filled with food while millions starve. Homes sit empty while homelessness exists. CEOs of healthcare organizations deny lifesaving medicines to the sick so that shareholders can be 1% richer than they already are. 

Okay so, I'm not actually great at speeches, so here's another list for you.

IN MY PERFECT WORLD

  • Corporations own nothing. That gold mine over yonder? That's public land. It belongs to the public. Any resources pillaged from the belly of the earth shall be used to build and maintain the community around it, not hoarded and sold off to the highest bidder. Every care shall be taken to maintain the integrity of the environment surrounding it. No more dumping filth and run-off into the river. No more clear-cutting the forests without discretion. No more mountain top removal. 
  • Corporations own nothing. Landlording is a crime against humanity. People have a right to exist, taking advantage of that is now a crime punishable by being shot into the sun. Suburban sprawl is now illegal. Your power grid is owned by you and everyone connected to it. 
  • Towns and cities and villages are meant for people, not cars. No more interstate carved through the center of Atlanta with 3 hour traffic jams. From now on, it's 2 lane streets with a maximum speed limit of 15mph. Pedestrian and bicycle traffic take priority. Vehicles with blind spots are shot into the sun with the landlords. WTF is a parking lot? High speed transit and public transportation are the norm for long distance travel.
  • Taxes. Yes, those still exist. But, in our society, it is not people who are taxed, but money, itself. If you have a dollar, society gets $0.10 of it. if you have 500 dollars, society gets $50 of it, and so on. Credit and interest are forbidden. Bartering and the trading of goods and services are highly encouraged.
  • CORPORATIONS OWN NOTHING. Factory farms are a sin of the past. For-profit prisons do not exist. For-profit healthcare and education and does not exist. Insurance does not exist. Wage slavery does not exist. If your company makes profit, it goes to those who worked to create it, not a CEO or shareholder. 
And, I think that's it for now. I'm sure I can come up with more, but Rome wasn't build in a single day, you know. 

Toodles!
