The broader
objective of the AEM is to create a
new Egalitarian culture....
- in which all citizens have far less
need to be concerned about....
- money and the endless issues
relating to it;
- social inequality;
- unemployment;
- inadequate social services;
- laws and policies that serve to
advantage the privileged few.
- which is far more....
- valid;
- sustainable;
- economically, socially, and
environmentally responsible;
- responsible in its usage of
non-renewable and water resources;
- fulfilling for
its citizens;
- uncorrupted;
- care free;
- tolerant,
- open in the way it is
administered;
- compassionate;
- and just; and
- of which the citizens are
- motivated to participate within;
and
- grateful and
proud to pass on to their descendants.
These are very measurable criteria. As we demonstrate on our other web pages, they are outcomes that
can never be possible within any elitist or economically
stratified society, because socially dysfunctional and invalid
social structures will always produce social (and other) problems.
We conclude that these outcomes are only achievable
by becoming an Egalitarian society, the reasons for which you can
also read about on our other web pages.
Therefore, to achieve these
objectives, our immediate major objective is....
- to peacefully change the constitution of Australia to an
Egalitarian one as soon as possible.
However, peacefully changing the constitution of
Australia will
require the AEM to eventually becoming a political party, and gaining an
absolute majority in both houses of parliament.
Until then, the major goals of the AEM
are....
- to provide an institution within which
Egalitarianists can unite (nationally and internationally)
and discuss ideas about Egalitarianism;
- to provide Egalitarianists with a
public voice within the political arena;
- to create public support and
appreciation for Egalitarianism by educating the public about the
social, environmental, and economic benefits that are gained by
becoming an Egalitarian society;
- to create public support and
appreciation for Egalitarianism by educating the public about the
invalidity, irrationality, and needlessness of all materially, economically, and/or
socially stratified societies, including capitalism;
- to increase the membership of the AEM;
- to raise money for the AEM's
mission;
- to create public disapproval and
resentment towards capitalism and the social, environmental, and
economic problems it creates; and
- to put forward a workable model of an
Egalitarian society and economy.
Other Important Objectives
It is probably true to
say that the AEM is here to challenge almost every aspect of our
contemporary constitution and culture in one way or another, particularly since much
of it was shaped by economic rationalism,
short-sightedness, corruption, and
the self-interest and distrust that capitalism continually inspires. So, the AEM also
has the objective of installing a range of policies, which are quite different to
what exists now, and which are found on our 'Major Policies'
web page. These policies are associated with such issues as....
- maintaining Egalitarianism;
- preventing corruption, organised crime, illegal immigration, and black
markets;
- preventing the reproduction of a large
range of social problems;
- reducing over-consumption and
exportation of
non-renewable resources, and increasing our usage of renewable
resources;
- solving the serious problems
associated with the contemporary version of democracy;
- protecting our natural environment and
native species;
- more responsible management of our
water resources;
- reducing pollution;
- reducing our dependency on
trade;
- maintaining full employment;
- providing more variety in your working
day/week;
- providing free social services such as
education, healthcare, child care, and legal
representation;
- increasing research and
development;
- ending the need for tax;
- making everybody economically
autonomous;
- preventing foreign and trade
debts;
- making the change to Egalitarianism
relatively painless for everybody;
- improving the nation's efficiency and
administration; and
- simplifying and improving the nation's
economy.
The bigger objective of the AEM is to
convert as many other nations as possible to Egalitarianism.
Our
plan is to demonstrate to the world just how successful
Egalitarianism is in Australia (i.e. after Egalitarianism has been
installed). We believe that it will be very difficult for any
capitalist party to win a democratic election against a party that is offering a
similar model to what the AEM has used, when the people of these
countries are able to see just how good and safe life is for everybody within an
Egalitarian Australian.
So let's
hear from you soon.
