Current Political Dynamics

A two-system concert hall — a cold red regime on the left, a warm golden establishment on the right, the crowd seated below both.

Something is broken in the world and we know it. Some people work harder to make ends meet, yet wealth concentrates faster than ever. We live in democracies, but politicians do not serve the needs of those who elected them. I believe the system is not failing by accident, it’s working as designed, for the ones who designed it. It can all change if citizens across borders join efforts to compete as one against the exploiters.

Before anyone calls this communist propaganda, let me be direct: I do not believe in communism and this is not communism. The next article in this part 1 series will explain why concentrating economic power in the state fails on exactly the same logic that makes corporate concentration fail. When a small group holds the levers — whether they are shareholders belonging to a billionaires club or officials from a communist political party in one capital city — the system bends to serve that group, and finds whatever funding source it needs to keep going. Drug economies, criminal rents, foreign subsidies, state-run cybercrime: the funding source changes, the architecture of exploitation does not. The proposal here is the opposite of both. Power distributed to every human being on earth, with no small group large enough to capture it.

The rules of a real democracy and capitalism are better. The issue is that we are too selfish as individuals and as societies, and that is, in my opinion, due to the ill-intentioned narratives that have brought us up in that way. Mix that with measuring your value as an individual by the material things you own, and you have a recipe for disaster: greed, greed that seeks power, power that seeks control, control that ends in oppression, and oppression that allows abuse, hunger and, ultimately, death.

Those who benefit from individualistic societies are the 1% of the population. Those we regularly call The Billionaires. They own or get their income from global companies mainly. Therefore, the more those global companies expand while minimizing their costs and get rid of the competition, the more likely the billionaires will stay in the 1% exclusivity club and be praised for it. They befriend politicians or get politicians elected so they can keep their market domination beyond borders through extortion, wars, or puppet governments that serve their goals.

How do we fix it?

Through a practical, mathematical, citizen-powered alternative to the empire model that has governed civilizations since kings first drew borders on maps. The core idea: The largest companies in the world – the ones big enough to buy governments, control raw materials, and dictate the terms of global trade – should have competition with companies owned by all of us, equally. Every human being on earth, the 99% of the population, one share each. Not by governments and not by funds managed by the already-wealthy. By us, eight billion people. Investing the equivalent of one dollar a month.

Here is what makes it different, every person on earth earns a passive income. Manufacturing distributed around the world, so every country has a similar employment rate and not located only where labor is cheapest to exploit. Prices fall because profit margins serve everyone and not just a few shareholders. And when someone invents something that the world voted it wants, that inventor earns royalties from 8 billion potential customers.

The math is real. The mechanism exists. The only thing missing is the self-determination of the 99% to join forces and make the decision to begin.
