I am pretty lucky to live the good life. I am not rich
finacially, but my life is rich. The good life means something
different to everyone, but we can recogize it when we see it. The
animal or person living well is healthy, content and living fully.
The founding fathers of America had a vision of the good life for
everyone. Free enterprise and people unbound to the shakels of
government could accomplish great things. Unfortunately much of this
vision has been lost.
Each of us have our own idea of GoodAndEvil.
For us all to live the good life we must accept the simple fact that
it is subjective and we can only support each others views of the good
life by employing a live and let live SocialContract of CooperativeDiversity.
Wealth is not finite. Our wealth as a civilization depends only
of the value we create. What we need first is the vision, and second is
the will to create value. Finally we need the means, which we find we
have had all along. We have creative minds and the rich resources of
the planet, MarsFrontier, galaxy and beyond.
If we manage our shared resources profitably then there is no
limit to the value we can create. If we create value, we can all share
the freedom to try to live the good life as we see it and fullfil
anything we want that does not infringe the freedoms of others.
The DeclarationOfInterdependence is a collaborative attempt to redesign government to reclaim the vision of our founders and thrive in the twentyfirst century.
