Representative democracies have already been compromised. There's no way to recover a system that is already flawed. The only way forward is through innovation and the sovereignty of each individual.

1. Definition and Issues: Representative democracy is a system where representatives are elected to govern a country based on majority votes. In some South American countries, a single vote can decide the fate of the nation and its people. 2. Dependence on Fiat Money: This system relies heavily on fiat currency, meaning the value of money depends on the issuing states. It's likened to a Ponzi scheme, needing more participants to sustain itself. Worldwide, living standards are deteriorating, as seen in countries like Venezuela, where elections are manipulated, and governance worsens. Even in developed nations, citizens face mandates that may not serve their interests, like compulsory vaccinations during the pandemic, and involvement in unnecessary wars, all exacerbated by increasing corruption and unfulfilled campaign promises.

3. Structural Issues: The problems are escalating, and the only way to sustain the current debt system is to expand the Ponzi-like structure until it collapses. This has led to a decline in the quality of leaders and lower public expectations, as people seem resigned to worsening conditions. Meanwhile, new technologies offer some protection for a minority, suggesting an inevitable fall of current state structures and the emergence of new social organizations driven by technology and a different societal mindset. 4. Path Forward: The solution lies in individual actions. It requires a personal commitment to doing things differently, always in collaboration with like-minded individuals. The current failure seems rooted in collective approaches, where most people lose interest in their own development. The future may require moving beyond conventional systems to new, innovative forms of governance.

Your point are well thought out. I’m not sure that having a representative democracy depends on having a ponzi-like fiat system. That seems up to the people who are elected. There certainly seems to be a way in which a budget is balanced while also having a government structure. More importantly if representative democracies fail, then they seem to fail on a long timeline. Have we seen another form of government that has succeeded over a longer timeline? Is there a viable other option? Lastly, doesn’t that last vote that makes your life miserable need their mind changed? Isn’t that the way it works? If you want more people to take your point of view you need to convince them? Obviously I don’t know everything, but it feels like a cop out to say representative democracies don’t work if you get out-voted. What am I missing here? Seriously not trying to be a jerk. Just looking for more insight

I believe that the current Ponzi-like system is closely tied to contemporary democracies because both emerged around the same time. After WWII, fiat currencies and global supra-state entities like the World Economic Forum, WHO, IMF, and others were established. Through democracies, we do not have access to the decisions made there; we only get to choose the puppets of these institutions. It becomes increasingly evident when supposed rebels, like Milei in Argentina, always end up adhering to the power structure or are deposed by some “accident.” Milei’s current government is structured by people from the previous Peronist parties and those who were in Macri’s era, meaning nothing has changed. Fiat money is used because democratic states require taxes to be paid in that currency. This money is based on infinite issuance, aiming to sustain a system that would otherwise collapse.

As for voting, I don’t think it solves anything, whether one side wins or the other. The system, as explained above, does not provide the necessary incentives to do things right. I do believe in trying to talk and help build a better way to respond to these difficulties with others. That’s what I’m trying to do here. However, my view is that voting doesn’t work. We need anarchic organizations of direct democracy, similar to a DAO, where everyone takes care of themselves and their community for mutual benefit.
