Public Problem-Solvers
Wanted:
Federal and State Leaders:
| Hammurabi, the great general and lead minister of King
Nebuchadrezzar, was beseiging an errant
city when the King appeared. Listening to the King's advice on how to capture
the city, Hammerubi threw his hands into the air and beg to be excused from
the task at hand, expressing, "Oh, Great King, the task has become too complex
for your humble servant to achieve."
Moral of the story: Solutions are simple until some politician
introduces irrelevant factors into the problem-solving. |
Simple solutions escape chronic problems because
habitual politicians keep
introducing irrelevant factors. What are the irrelevant factors that make
simple problems very complex? Campaign payback. The complexity of
something-for-nothing in the form of
campaign
welfare to reward their supporters causes many problems to not be solved,
to be ignored, to be worsened, or to be generated. One can't get something
for nothing. Someone has to lose. The losers become the new, larger problem,
e.g., slavery in all its forms--see
timistic morality.
In principle and etymology, politics means "to make policy." The policy is
supposed to solve problems. The policy is supposed to end the wasting of
time of those who suffer the problem. Unfortunately, policy-making has all
too often caused more and larger problems than are solved in the policy-making.
Compromises are not common promises to benefit the
problem-sufferers but to benefit the politicians who want to maintain a monopoly
on the policy-making process. It's not policy-making but poicy-mocking.
With polticial solutions, our problems are no t solved. Time losses increase
approaching an existential
meltdown. Humanity needs problem-solvers focused on the creation and
saving of time in all public activities. Humanity needs the timistic
problem-solvers. Timism.com offers a platform to find and elevate
problem-solvers.
To speed up the creation of a problem-freer world, in anticipation of future
elections, and to give potential candidates part-time government interaction
-
the on-line principles of better democracy and capitalism
-
will be used to elect problem-solvers for federal and state offices
-
who will parallel and interface with the major federal and state elected
and appointed offices.
The problem-solvers fall into three classes reflecting the three branches
of government: legislative, executive and judicial. Using the on-line brain
bees for the appropriate offices, new elections will be held each time the
applications increase by a multiple of
seven--apolitical
hierarchy and
Steering
Committees.When one signs up for an account and completes the deme
information, one is automatically enrolled as a voter with the option to
self-nominate for basic offices--see
basic
democracy.
The duties, responsibilities and compensation of Problem-Solvers are
-
to re-present the
citizen legislation
derived from the people, of the people and for the people,
-
to respond to inquiries as part of the timistic
lines of
communication, and,
-
receive lifehour
contribution.
Compensation for time served is au tomatically calculated at the end of one's
term with the election of one's replacement.
Elected problem-solvers will be paid a
lifehour salary that corresponds
to their parallel position. For each day of being available to serve, the
elected problem-solver receives the per diem salary, e.g, $400 to $1100.
In addition, any money put into specific activities can be and should be
recorded as
volunteer
activities. Primary winners who fulfill a review/relay niche in the
lines of
communication are paid based on the time and level--see
record
lifehours.
Key factors to Elections
-
Frequency: Elections of problem-solvers are automatic each time the number
of candidates increase by a factor of seven or the nomal office term, e.g.,
2, 4, 6 years.
-
Women 50/50: Each new
position has as its winner from the seven finalist the member of the opposite
sex of the last winner. The highest member of the opposite sex within that
same election will be the vice-person for that position. For that election,
thereafter, the winner flipflops between the sexes--see
Gender Alternate Example
.
The problem-solving positions are listed on the
Global Democracy
webpage where you can change your default or current submission summary.
The public problem-solvers will interface with their corresponding position.
When citizen
legislation is formulated, the public problem-solver will present it
to the current elected official for re-presentation to the legi slative
body. If a commission is established, the public problem-solver will re-present
the findings to the public agency. Public problem-solvers will track actions
of the public official which have too often been swept under the rug, e.g.,
cabinet waste and ambassadorial incompetence.
Since the habitual politicians will not live by the campaign speeches (which
they put back into the closet until the next election), we, the people, need
to use this internet to hold them up to the standards they exhale in campaign
breaths.
-
Re-Election Schedule: New problem-solvers elections are held each
time the applicants reach a new power of seven: 7, 49, 343, etc., or for
three or six months.
-
Compensation: When elected, the
problem-solver receives the scheduled lifehour tax credit. When doing the
work of the people, the
problem-solvers
pay form is used to record expended money. Problem-solvers found inflating
claims will lose all accumulated lifehours and be banned from participating
in and benefitting from Better Democracy and Capitalism.
Nubs
-
Office Limits: You cannot hold the office you previously held. If
you hold an office, you can run for others. However, when elected you must
give up the previous office.
Women 50/50 will be
implemented at and above the state level.
-
Citizen Duties: For individual supporters, it is a waste of time to
contact habitual politicians, for they have ears and actions only for their
money dictators--see habitual
quacks. If you want a safer, saner world, ignore the habitual politicians.
Let the people-elected problem-solvers act on your behalf. See
Lines of
Communication.
-
Replacement: Replacement or candidate is the highest ranking person
according to the fulfilment of
Women 50/50.
-
Salary: As an elected problem-solver, you will receive a daily
lifehour tax credit corresponding
to the elected position, e.g., President=$1100, Senator/Congressman=$400/day.
Payment is made at the end of your term when a new election selects a
replacement.You are helping perfect a government of the people, by the people
and for the people, and you deserve to be paid. These fees are within the
parameters of the projected $3 billion
leverage buyout of habitual
politicians.
-
Cash Expenditures: Record them as part of
Record
Volunteered Time and Money.
-
Ambassadors: People selected for the
Ambassadorships
will receive a paid, group vacation as a symbolic end to political junkets
and political nincompoops that have bedeviled our foreign friends and made
us some enemies. Be sure to submit your name and qualifications for an
ambassadorship
(only one country).
Caveats:
-
No current or past habitual politicians should apply. Giving known drunks
a new vehicle will merely destroy and waste the investment into a new system--see
habitual quacks. In times
of trouble and turmoil, the only thing worse than not voting is voting for
a habitual politician.
-
No current or past staff of habitual politicians. Alcoholic co-enablers can
not be trusted.
-
No one who has been employed in any capacity by, in or for an election/voting
registrar office can run for the position of
state registrar: A new
broom sweeps clean. Our economic body will not benefit from mixing bad blood
with good blood.
-
Exception: Any newly elected, first term representative, senator or governor
can resign his office to participate in on-line brain bees.
-
If you become aware that a participant is habitual politician or wannabee
of either of the two parties responsible for America's decline, you should
notify the other members of the cyber classroom.
-
Forget about the political
quacks and hacks who will delay or deny a healthy recovery of our economy
and society. Just forget about the Democrats and Republicans.
-
Focus your energy on how the process and supporters of Better Democracy and
Capitalism can make your life better. We can have a 24-hour work week in
4 years by managing our time so as to have more disposable time and money
for self, family and community in a safer, saner
world--24 in 4. We can emulate
Japan
to retire from the rat race.
