Excerpted from the philosophical novel Infinite of One, these four theories constitute the ideological core of the Infinite of One belief system, representing the strongest possible foundation upon which humanity may build itself up to it best-balanced, most mutually-beneficial, longest-enduring heights:
Cornerstone #1: True, Representative-Optional Democracy
An online 'social media' style democracy in which parties and representatives are optional and unlimited and direct representation is an inviolable right. The true requisites and virtues of democracy are blocked when filtered through parties and upper class representatives in a system in which corruption is endemic and buying politicians is legal, and precludes true democracy. We are a plutocratic republic, and the greatest popular benefits cannot be known without a true democracy.
Cornerstone #2: Quality of Life Economics
A system of economic theory which asserts that the pursuit of the highest total quality of life of the people is the only moral purpose of economics, and which crafts its indicators of success accordingly. A deep systemic analysis of the conventional indicators of economic 'success' indicates that such 'success' is actually a failing of the people as a whole, being the cause of most of the inequality and inseparable suffering delivered upon the populace.
Cornerstone #3: Business Collectivism
A form of business in which a merited equity share is rewarded to every contributor to the company relative to contributory value as an inviolable right. There's no longer being denied a fair share of the bottom line because you aren't wealthy enough to buy ownership of a business, the basis of the exclusionary exploitation of capitalism. Also gone: working 'for' a company as an 'employee, ' which is a euphemism for a tool and budget line to be cost-minimized on the corporate balance sheet. As justice dictates all former 'workers' are now partners in the company, regardless of their positions, and are rewarded relative to contributory value. The dissemination of Business Collectives would go a LONG way toward reinforcing the other three cornerstones.
Cornerstone #4: Monoexistential Spirituality
The unifying force of spiritual knowledge is anathema to the divisions and oppression of religion. We are all finite manifestations of the one infinite being, inseparable from God, or Spirit.
