Policy
Overview
New Medical Technology
We support the purchase, design, and building
of all medical technology that may be used to alleviate
suffering. We support the increased availability of alternative
treatments.
New Focus for
Government
We support the restructuring of every
government program, from taxation to social services to
education, to increase justice, freedom, and
contentment.
Mega Projects, the Past
We will eliminate the government’s role
in status-driven megaprojects, be it Expo or the Olympics. Cost
overruns are a constant of such programs and they increase the
stratification in society, providing more to those with the
greatest funds and less to those who have
little.
The Next Mega Project
The core mega-project of the new millennia
will be the enhancement of well-being and eventual elimination
of the experience of suffering. Government resources will
be redirected to this end. Health funding
towards technologies to enhance mood and well-being will
be made more available to all.
Animal Well-Being
The human animal’s well-being is our first
priority. Humans have the greatest capacity to change the world
for the better. Our next and pressing priority is to make
policy based on minimizing cruelty to animals, both for pets
and animals that feed us.
Final Wishes for the
Dying
For people who are near death we will
institute a ‘no limit’ policy to the amount of pain killers,
including so-called illegal drugs, that they wish to use in
their final days.
Pharmaceuticals that Improve
Mood
We support the expansion and eased
availability of drugs that alleviate suffering.
Income Tax
We need a form of taxation that heals the
environment quickly and maximizes the prosperity of citizens.
We support in principle the gradual elimination of income tax
and the transfer of taxation to consumption.
We will begin by eliminating
income tax for citizens earning under $20,000 a year and scale
all tax breaks from the bottom up. Initial tax credits will
apply to BC businesses first.
A New Currency
To eliminate the unsustainable effects of
usury and the inevitable indebtedness of individuals, nations,
and provinces to international banks we will create a
provincial currency backed by real gold, silver, and other
physical commodities. This provincial currency backed by a real
world counterpart will create a hedge against international
currency speculator’s attacks on national currencies and
improve the stability of personal savings.
Provincial Defense
We strongly support local natural resource
and border protection. We support the creation of a provincial
militia if necessary.
Expand Choices for Social Programs
For example, with education and
welfare we will introduce education transfer credits
and guaranteed annual income. This will give citizens
more freedom and choices to improve their
well-being.
The Sale of Land and Public
Utilities
We support retaining and protecting
public land or public utilities if they benefit citizens or the
environment; in cases of sale, land should always be sold first
to BC residents, then Canadian citizens.
Entrepreneurship
We endorse free-markets and wealth
creation. We encourage entrepreneurship and free market
systems unless they harm health or
the environment. Significant tax relief will go
towards citizen purchases or companies that improve
emotional well-being through their products or corporate
structure.
Health Care
We
will reduce suffering, be it psychological or physical, to the
greatest degree possible by legalizing anti-depressants and
pain-relievers and protecting and enhancing optimal surgical
and emergency care.
