Politics - Trusteeship concept.

Practical Trusteeship Formula
Trusteeship provides a means of transforming the present capitalist order of society into an egalitarian one. It gives no quarter to capitalism, but gives the present owning class a chance of reforming itself. It is based on the faith that human nature is never beyond redemption.
It does not recognize any right of private ownership of property except so far as it may be permitted by society for its own welfare.
It does not exclude legislative regulation of the ownership and use of wealth.
Thus under State-regulated trusteeship, an individual will not be free to hold or use his wealth for selfish satisfaction or in disregard of the interests of society.
Just as it is proposed to fix a decent minimum living wage, even so a limit should be fixed for the maximum income that would be allowed to any person in society. The difference between such minimum and maximum incomes should be reasonable and equitable and variable from time to time so much so that the tendency would be towards obliteration of the difference.
Under the Gandhian economic order the character of production will be determined by social necessity and not by personal whim or greed.

====================================================

Egalitarianism affirms, promotes, and believes in equal political, economic opportunity, social, and civil rights for all people. In actual practice, one may be considered an egalitarian in most areas listed above, even if not subscribing to equality in every possible area of individual difference- Source- Wikipedia

Hi all,

Election again on the 24th of March +)

I ll just paste an interesting view for some of u’s to consider for the election… +)

Sometimes, too much power in an individual for a long time, may lead to a disaster.. So many has happened in this country, tho economic prosperity perhaps hide the most fundamental issue in this country, which atm would be the environment n also a danger of this country to capitalism(means of production are mostly privately[1] owned and operated for profit).

I would like to highlight the importance of morality as it is very important to move country fwd, w/o hurting anyone. Morality beyond all is quite important in trusteeship.

My point or advice is to choose ur frens, ur leader, or anyone, who values morality above all.

Lov, Mel
