Everything trying to stabilize itself over the long term is doomed to kill its progress.
But if you trump up progress it eventually destroys the system that started it.
So the best system is actually inherently an unstable one which is constantly on the border of its stability.
Introduce a gun in the equation. Do not ever assume people play by the rules.
R. R. Martin put it well: in a game of thrones you win or you die.
Have the skill to balance on the razor's edge and you can build the perfect society
for only its perfection is ephemeral.
If you can get me?
@Fuksias Question is:
How can we make **everyone** play the game of thrones?
Eat the elite
Another point. An unstable government will by any means availabe seek its own stability. That will forever work against you.
This is why THE ULTIMATE PURPOSE of Absolute progressivism should be to make teh government weaker-the weaker it may be.
This is why we should take away the military and the economy out of its hands.
Leave it as pure judiciary-even take away the ability to make laws.
And make it susceptible to many elections on many levels-both controlled by trained officials and ones controlled by the general populace.
By pitting the economy and the military against the government ones get precisely this-taking away its power in order to give it to others.
The best government possible will be one of pure judiciary.
It's THE ONLY THING worth for a government to stand by.
Keep up the law of the land amongst the citizens of the land.
Best government possible!
You do realise the entire system rests on 3 people?
Three watchdogs.
Or rather a career militarist, a master of propaganda, and a corporate chill.
I wouldnt bet money on it lasting.
You dont need to follow the laws you enforce. You should, but thats besides the point.
The military commander could make it a dictatorship if he wanted to, the corporate guy could buy the military to make it a dictatorship, or corporate fascism or whatever they want...
The corporate and the propaganda man could fire the head of military until they get one that will obey them...
But here is the beauty of it-they can NOT NEGOTIATE WHO WOULD TAKE IT!
Everyone wants different kind of dictatorship and this is why they can't have it their way.
Cause the military will be starved by the corporations and the government would just jail them without the support of the business.
Idk, your job is both to find out how this could potentially fall form the inside and outside, and figure out how to counter it
Your system not mine.
But the business aren't going to pay up the military in the long term-they can't afford to be overtaken on the inside cause ultimately the government is less expense.
Who would jail the _military_????
The government.
They control the judiciary.
A foregin military?
If the military is the problem just tell the people they want to enslave them.
No the people themselves.
If your military is killing your politicians-the people YOU voted in power would you organize into a national guard units and just seize the HQ?
Well, thats either _good luck being invaded_ or _good luck citizens_
Ultimately if the military does that it would be game of cat and mouse cause the longer they hold the government into an arrest, the more the people will consider them occupationists and the more the hatred of the population against them will rise.
Depending on the strenght of the military
Not its strength, but rather THE SUPPORT they have amongst the people.
Cause, you know what, people's feeling aren't constant.
They can be all over the military one day and throwing stones at it the other.
