КАК ЖИТЬ
Proposal (draft)
The preamble:
This text is intended for people with non-standard life experiences and values.
Primarily for the Dubai Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum.
Other persons could only ridicule and anger at him.
Such a proposal 10 years ago would have been premature.
However, civilization has come to the change of quantity into quality, which will be popular after the Third World War.
And it is already feasible now in some cases.
A note on the style of the proposal:
Since this proposal has not been published before and the author is unfamiliar with the mentality of people who will be learning this, the expression style may seem inconsistent and not very straightforward to comprehend.
I feel it will be easier to answer the questions that arise than to try to cover the immensity.
Beginning:
Cancel the money in the jurisdiction of the Emirate.
And any currency.
Inside the Emirate, everything is produced and distributed not for monetary profit.
The end:
In 10 years, the Emirates will become the most economically powerful state globally.
And will be a role model for 2/3 of the world's states and will ensure their highest importance in the history of mankind.
The middle:
Ownership does not change.
The title system does not change.
The order of inheritance does not change.
Export revenues are accumulated in the state treasury.
The cost of imports is performed from the State treasury.
In both cases, it will be performed in close information contact with interested counterparties in the country's jurisdiction.
The contracts are signed by the same people who signed them before.
Financial and commodity flows through the country are technologically carried out as before.
This will be performed as before through offshore companies, where the whole country becomes an unusual offshore, but for each financial transaction, the action takes place with the consent of the center.
The engine of productive and distributive relations within the country is not financial gain but the laws of human psychology:
1. On the one hand: the need to play life in such a way as to receive the approval of "fans" - to replenish mental strength, to be inspired, to be inspired.
Have a good mood.
2. On the other hand: exclude things that negatively affect your state of mind.
Based on the first rule, people, regardless of their personal capital, will inevitably engage in productive activities and the ones that they do best.
This will provide an economic result many times greater than the current one.
Based on the second rule, we create mechanisms that easily stop slacking and parasitism.
The organizational part of the relations distribution mechanism.
Each member of the society has an index of their social usefulness.
Index = the number of approvals divided by the number of disapprovals (likes, dislikes).
Technically, the system is enforced via smartphones.
Who could approve and condemn: anyone who wants to.
In reality, there will be no abuse as a phenomenon.
Because:
1. Everyone knows that the welfare of the person being evaluated depends on his vote.
2. Everyone knows that their own well-being depends on everyone's social usefulness.
As a consequence, a new morality is being developed.
When any falsification of grades will be perceived as a crime against society.
Forgers will receive a critical amount of dislike, as a result of which people will refuse to even give them bread, which will lead them to the verge of survival.
Knowing this, no potential forger will even think in this order.
The following conditions will be useful during the transition phase:
This information is publicly available.
Everything is distributed free of charge in the country.
It is not distributed by the state but by the manufacturer.
Focusing on the index of public utility.
The formula: "I give it to whom I want."
The impact of the reform on certain crucial phenomena.
Contract job of emigrants.
Emigrants are obliged to fulfill the contract.
Failure to comply entails deportation.
Personal savings.
The owners of the funds can use them outside the country.
The capitals of companies.
Each external operation is approved by the center.
Drug addiction.
As a result of a qualitative improvement in the mental state of the population, as a mass phenomenon, it will end.
Economic crime and fraud.
These phenomena lose any purpose.
The population.
1. The labor force will come to the country not for work but for a permanent life: family members will be imported into the country. Families will provide birth.
2. A part of the population of industrialized countries, exhausted by financial coercion mechanisms, will rush to the UAE (including highly qualified specialists), along with the families.
Official relations. The psychological component.
This improves to the maximum for the following reasons:
The boss ceases to be a source of well-being, and the employee ceases to be a means to ensure the welfare of the boss.
The boss can painlessly replace an ineffective employee with a more effective one due to an overabundance of labor.
The employee will have the option to look for a "good boss" because of the cessation of daily dependence on sources of existence.
As an outcome, companies will consist of people who want to work with each other = a united team.
The consequence of this will be a significant reduction in cost and a very significant improvement in the quality of the companies' products (by an order of magnitude).
Which, along with an increased inflow of labor (including highly qualified workers), will provide the country with unprecedented economic growth.
Startups
Since startups will not require initial capital, and financing will be provided by the state under the guarantee of interested companies, this will significantly increase the number of new economic entities due to the initiatives of the financially secure part of residents.
The UAE's dependence on external financial flows.
Everything is produced by people. When a country has people who know how to produce everything, the less the country depends on external financial and trade flows, and the more other countries depend on the UAE.
In 10 years, the country will receive significantly more revenue from the export of products than from the export of hydrocarbons.
Moreover, this process will continuously self-grow.
Inbound tourism.
Prices for consumed goods and services are established through the state center, and before leaving the country, the tourist is invited to pay for the consumed-acquired.
If the tourist pays, then he is a welcome guest in the future.
If not, then in a different way.
Outbound tourism.
1. Since residents of the UAE can satisfy all their basic needs for free in the UAE, they will not need to significantly spend abroad.
2. The state provides citizens a certain amount for expenses, which depends on the value of their index of public utility.
Thus, some residents would like to spend a lot but will receive little.
And there will be those who will not spend much but will get a lot.
Possible negative effects and ways to overcome them.
Conflicts with East and West.
Over time, a significant influx of skilled labor from all industries for the "issuing" countries will acquire the scale of economic harm.
And they will try to take appropriate measures.
But it seems that by this time, the UAE's economy, including of a defense nature (in the broadest sense of the word), will become so strong that considering its destruction by someone will entail incomparably greater costs for that side than the continuation of peaceful coexistence.
Since no one will perceive such reforms as practicable in the early years, it is during this time that these reforms will take root and become an example for many countries of the world to solve their own socio-economic and political problems.
I.e., by the time the outflow of skilled labor annoys some countries, the UAE will acquire powerful informal international support and maybe followers.
And it will become even more unprofitable for enemies to conflict with the whole world.
Moreover.
The population of those countries will be on the side of the UAE in such a conflict.
Which will certainly condemn those countries to defeat, in essence.
It is also good here that the strongest blocs of the East and West are directing all their attention to the upcoming military conflict between them.
They will have no time to deal with a secondary task for the first few years.
The personal safety of the reformers.
"Powers That Be" will certainly calculate the development of events.
And some of them will not desire such changes.
And attempts at inappropriate actions are possible.
But since such goes will not be carried out at the state level but at a much lower level, the Emirates' security system should be sufficient to neutralize such tries.
The predicted attitude of the "Powers That Be."
"Powers That Be" are divided into 2 parts: managers and their freeloaders: relatives and clan members.
Managers know and will be able (that's why they are managers) to adapt to the new reality, including even joining it.
They will not lose the most important benefit of their position:
1. Scope for activity
2. Respect
They will lose the theatrical veneration that they abhor.
Their freeloaders will not be respected for anything, but freeloaders do not have real executive power, and therefore, they cannot pose a physical or political threat.
Note:
Because many of them are oppressed by a dependent existence.
The UAE reforms will allow them to get out of this dependence, so I would not be surprised if some freeloaders join the UAE reforms.
General bewilderment on the part of influential people of the world.
For the first couple of years, there was general surprise and ridicule.
But this is a plus, it is a guarantee that they will not oppose what they do not believe in.
The indigenous population of the Emirates is Arabs.
There may be fears of uncertainty about the future, resulting in discontent.
It seems here that the tribal mentality of the Arab population will not allow such discontent to transform into a problem.
Note:
This mentality is one of the decisive factors in implementing reforms in the Arab world.
This phenomenon is considered by some to be a civilizational disadvantage; in this case, it will act as a historical plus.
The role of the center.
A significant restructuring of the state apparatus regarding financial services will be required. But this is the usual job of rulers.
Political technology.
First, preliminary organizational measures are carried out.
Accounting funds. Centralized accounting.
Both employers and mercenaries should not be placed in a situation of extreme uncertainty by reforms.
To do this, the existing financial relations are transferred to state supervision so that after the announcement of the reform, immediate guarantees are declared to the entities for the preservation of "acquired" during the reform time.
The modern economic entity of the Emirates conducts business almost without supervision, partly in a semi-shadow economy.
It is possible to guarantee the "return" of profits that the subject would have received during the reformation only by knowing these profits. To do this, the state should conduct the accounting of all subjects.
I.e., the subject makes the decision, and the state keeps records.
Ensuring this function is a necessary part of the preparatory process of the reform.
It is not profitable for many entities for the state to know the real situation of their finances.
To do this, they need to be motivated.
Taking temporary losses.
For example, the abolition of certain taxes.
In this case, the losses will be insignificant after the victory of the reform because there will be no taxes at all for residents.
Thus, many entrepreneurs will be trained technically and mentally for the transition.
After the announcement of the reform.
The circulation of cash stops.
Attempts to deceive the center should lead to the publication of such acts, with the inevitable decrease in the population's index of the usefulness of the subject.
The guarantee of the state: in case of failure of non-monetary relations, they return to those before the reform.
Thus, those who do not believe in the usefulness of reforms for their lives will remain almost the same economically and politically. They will not pose threats.
The same part of the population that will benefit from the reforms (I think from 3/4 to 5/6) will simply lose any interest in monetary relations. And it will completely switch to socio-moral instruments for regulating distributive relations.
Preparation and training of the population to regularly participate in survey assessments.
Systematic surveys of people's opinions on any side of the country's economy and economic relations are launched with the formation of the utility index of this subject (so far, it is not binding on anyone).
The details of the type "whose opinion is taken into account: men or women, pensioners, university students, prisoners, etc., from what age; with what frequency; "with" or "without" explanations" are determined at the planning stage of the reform.
In Fact, the public goal is to develop the country's economy with the people.
The faster and more unambiguous, the fewer costs must be overcome.
The definition of the utility index is started.
Six months later, a public indicator of the ratio of supporters and opponents of the reform is launched.
The task of this tool is to stabilize and direct social energy in the required direction.
The indicator has two possible consequences:
Bad:
In a case where the part of the population against reform is larger than that of the population that "accepts" reform, a referendum is held.
The referendum's result either confirms that the population is more dissatisfied than satisfied.
In case of confirmation of dissatisfaction, the reforms are canceled.
Comprehending this option will prevent inappropriate reactions from opponents, which will facilitate the transition time.
Good:
The percentage of reform supporters is more significant than that of opponents. And it grows over time.
Knowing this option will assure supporters that the reforms are long-term.
A new effective morality is formed after a stable two-fold excess of supporters over opponents.
After that, this indicator will lose its political significance and turn into a tool of science.
The final stage: the statement of victory or defeat in ways and forms aimed at reducing losses or consolidating achievements
Other temporary difficulties.
A slight outflow of labor.
Uncritical distortions in the economy.
The currency shadow market.
The suspension of the activities of some companies.
Changes in the use of consumer and corporate payment systems are also inevitable.
These destructive phenomena can be reduced through a clear strategy of action.
It includes trained social support groups.
Conducting massive show-effects on segments of the population.
And the manifestation of determination in the implementation of the planned
The main sources of success of the reforms.
1. The level of state capital sufficient to cover the costs of the transition time.
2. A high number of workers per unit of the economy. Which ensures the success of the internal development of reforms.
3. For most residents, dependence on money is critical.
What guarantees their support
4. The population is provided with cellular communications, making political technology possible.
3. Developed economic infrastructure, which will allow to withstand temporary distortions in the economy
4. Tribal mentality of the indigenous population, providing a relatively conflict-free transition.
5. The level of development of law enforcement agencies is sufficient to effectively neutralize the negative influence from outside during the transition period.
6. The positive image of the Emirates that has developed in the world as a center of well-being and stability.
7. The growing dependence of the political centers of the world on the hydrocarbons of the Arab world. Which guarantees that there is no interest in interfering in internal affairs.
8. The personality traits of some rulers of
Afterword.
I am sure that the time for such a reform is approaching in the world and that it is inevitable after the end of the upcoming great war.
The UAE may be the first.
