Our society lacks one really important government job.
The one of a Government Jester. It should be a person who will tell rulers, ministers and all those in power... not only what they want to hear or what official opposition likes to scream out (while being supported by competing clans, magnates and neighboring states)…
but also something ...kind, light and right...
In olden days there was a position of a royal jester. A jester was allowed to do and say a lot and no none got offended or put dogs on him. However, a jester was often allowed to make quite sober statements even though he made it in a humorous way.
Honestly, I don't like to vote for anyone. But I would surely vote for some main government jester candidate.

The reason for the revolution of 1917 in Russia was pride. The level of shit and contempt for the lower classes in the heads of the Russian aristocracy became so high that the system could not withstand the pressure and exploded. However, the French, German, and all other revolutions were of the same nature.

Democracy is a mask. Mask smiling, good and fair. Anything can hide under this mask, but it does not matter. The evolutionary progress and advantage of democracy over other forms of government lies precisely in this public goodness. In order not to hide under this mask, formally it is forced to somehow match its shape. And this form is the only thing that can hold back the monster hidden under it.

The State is a universal public enemy seeking to stop the war of all against all. To survive in this context, the State has to divide people by cultivating individualism among them; this will prevent people from teaming up to strike a violent, collective blow. Pointing to an external or internal enemy is another great way to shift the public focus elsewhere.

Although our society is post-industrial, it does not mean that people should be left without jobs or that they should work in the service industry as salesmen, waiters, etc. It rather means the transition to the production of unique, non-mass market goods, made with a high degree of novelty and manual production. It is moving away from cheap mass production towards individual, piece production with a large surplus value. It is the moving away from handicraft and stamping towards art. Production is not a craft, but an art in the post-industrial society. Now, it`s not a craftsman, but an artist who should be engaged in production.

The same happens in economics, small business needs shelter against big business and network business. A social agreement, which will grant small businesses access to retail, loans, marketplaces and customers, is quite necessary.

See the point. Having printed money, they created it from Nothing. Next, having conversed their form several times, they accumulated a huge amount of dead energy in the form of debts. Now it’s necessary to erase these debts and send them back to Nothing, thus finishing the money conversion cycle. It can be said that money was created from light, and if it is burnt now, it will become light again.
