Blistery Itchy Bumps On Butt

Thoughts: Dreams and disruptive new rights, number five ...


Proseguiamo in quello che chiamerei un esercizio di psicosintesi sociale, ovvero sognare, immaginare un nuovo illuminismo, un Nuovo Contratto Sociale dei Diritti, osare l'impossibile e reclamarlo apertamente. E, nei nostri limiti, mettere in pratica qui e ora ciò che un giorno, so we hope, will be protected in law.
Thus continuing, we get right in the fifth. Paul Barnard, who remember is the inspiration for this truly radical socio-political approach, introduces the same law calls the "right not to be poor. That poverty declared illegal, like theft, which becomes the duty of those who time to redistribute to those who have not. "
I really like the wording.
We may express it in a less formal, such as the right to a subsistence income. Where this term I mean that every person has the right to receive what is necessary to cover their basic needs: food, shelter, health.
Many fear in this way passiveness of a citizen. I am not in agreement. It is not the anxiety or mortgage overdraft to make active. Indeed, the possibility of not being harassed for what should of course be guaranteed, which is a basic condition of existence, will deliver in each and every one of us incredible creative spaces and, socially speaking, productive.
Unlike previous rights, it is more difficult to implement the fifth of his pending legal recognition: the state should be to ensure this but if so, again, is not it?
Well, we can begin to reduce our need to experience right now a basic lifestyle, subsistence, even if it for a limited time.
Maybe we could take a few months to spend in areas where we can live with less money (not just the Philippines, also in Italy, just move slightly away from the crowded city). We could in fact translate and update this fifth law with the concept of decline. Find that with less, sometimes much less, sometimes with incredibly less, you can live better, much better, unbelievably better! And take
taste.
try it ...
