Human beings are social animals. Travel through time and you will see that this has always been the case. We need to voice our opinions and share our concerns and come to a common conclusion on how to mover forward in life. Problem is that society has increasingly become more concentrated on singular policy making and attacks those that have no reason to follow such decisions. More time is being spent on a system ridden with flaws rather than radically rethinking the way we approach each other and life.
While issues are wide and many there has only been attempts to consolidate into a single way of thinking while leaving out alternatives. That would be like a single computer for every man, woman and child and this computer fed us, gave us shelter and dealt with our problems. Imagine the catastrophe if the system failed. No way out, no alternative thinking. In the end we will end up dead because the alternatives will be forgotten and of course will be too late to think about solutions.
Then there is the issue of managing our selves, on an individual scale, as part of a community and so on. The current method like an inverse pyramid. The foundation of society being the bottom and also the weakest. The strongest and frontline of policy making at the top. How will the system keep a check on itself when the decision making power is concentrated at the bottom. A single mistake and the entire system disintegrates. This has been the case time and time again throughout history. Sadly this is the only system that survives because humanity struggles to attain power and become the "alpha male". True intelligence suggests that a change in this behaviour will essentially lead us to real evolution and not revolution.
Example:
Take the case of Napster. The peer to peer service was centralised in a sense where everyone using the service had to remain connected to this central database in order to access other people's music. The servers were taken down and everyone was left in the dark.
Take the system of torrents. It is peer to peer based but runs on a decentralised method where people are connected directly to other people. Trackers serve as databases to information on the location of people and the content itself. DHT provides the same information but without the need for special servers. Take out any source and there are other sources that can still be accessed.
The alternative to the current system is a torrent style approach. Break the current system into multiple root level administrators. This allows different communities to approach different problems effectively and efficiently. The next level allows for a common policy system for a group of communities (within a geographic location) that delivers equal rights . Outside that will be a larger system that links to other parts of the planet as well other communities. Such a system of "rings" will allow for proper tracking of policy making and serve as a people powered system of vigilance. The system also allows for alternate access to problem solving and policy making. Such a system has stronger bonds and is less likely to fall due to poor decision making.
This alternative system also provides the opportunity to better understand management level decision making as well as true equality based policy making. Consider the amount of relevant information that will reach from one point to another or from community to community. It also allows for a system of rating decisions and a quick policy "review and change" system. The system benefits from flexibility and fast turn around time from a potential problem to integration of the solution. Such a system also benefits from better access to knowledge, which in turn provides better access to quality education and ways of liberal thinking (think open-mindedness).
The possibilities are endless. Rethink the system.
