"To learn who rules over you, simply point to who you cannot criticize" - Voltaire
*please note nothing written here is final, I invite all citizens to give feedback to help forge this movement*
4 HR DAY, 4 DAY WORK WEEK
Non-administritive work hours will be reduced to 4 hours per day. The weekend will have an extra day, friday is my personal choice but if the people would rather it be monday then so be it. Imagine all the new jobs!... if a business wishes to operate 8hrs a day or more the competition employers will have for attracting employees will create a rise in wages! Also, the more time people have to spend with family or simply do things they enjoy means opportunity for more business's, to accomodate that.(this coincides with the immigration policy stated further down the page, as without that, many would simply import foreign people to flood every industry therefore reducing wages and increasing cost of living) PLEASE NOTE: Emergency Services (incl Federal Police) and Defence Personnel will recieve large pay increases as they not be able to enjoy the full extent of this innovation at times.
TRUE VOTE SYSTEM:
A simple democratic innovation... on election days people will gather in the city centre, town centre, etc where designated areas for each political faction will be cordined. Human and AI vote counters will tally the numbers, via vantage points and cameras respectively. Police will patrol neighbourhoods to deter/catch bandits seeking to pillage homes while people are out, and have their votes tallied in the old way. I'm unsure whether hiding your identity will be allowed, I have reasons for and against it. My primary concern is that troublemakers or agitators will use this opportunity for political violence or intimidation.
Privacy and Advertising
It will be illegal to push unsolicited advertisements into people's homes and devices. If you didn’t ask for it, you shouldn't be forced to see it. Personal data belongs to the individual. Data collection for marketing or profiling purposes without explicit, revocable, informed consent is to be outlawed. Warrant-based surveillance: Only high-ranking law enforcement with an approved warrant may collect personal data and only if serious criminal activity is occuring. There will be no mass collection. No invisible profiling. No social credit creep.
Fortress Defence Doctrine:
A nation of peace must still guard its sovereignty. The New Dawn Commonwealth maintains a citizen militia, neighbourhood watch networks, and volunteer emergency corps. Defence spending will be temporarily increased to high levels before returning to higher than normal spenditure. This is to form our fortress military doctrine, creating a defence force and defence infrastructure that deters any potential aggressors and so that we can acquire the equiptment we are currently lacking. We will put to vote under the true vote system whether or not (20?) year olds will spend a paid 8 months basic training course (older ages non exempt, age cut-off TBA when introduced) to learn how to operate firearms safely and learn how to defend themselves in case our nation is facing an invasion. This is also so that upon reaching (25+?) years old they know how to operate their legal firearms safely and how to defend their home. This training will not be intensive military drills that our nations brave soldiers do day in and day out, it will be catered for a civilian defence force. YOU WILL NEVER BE SENT TO FIGHT OVERSEAS IN THE CIVILIAN DEFENCE FORCE. It is only invoked when we are being invaded by a hostile force and will be on our soil. This is purely a defensive measure. If (God forbid) one of our allies is invaded then it will be contingents of our soldiers who sally forth to their aid, volunteering for this is encouraged but not mandatory. All military personnel will be issued enhanced identification tags that include: Full name, Rank and unit designation and a laser-engraved facial image. This reaffirms their human dignity and enhances security by reducing the risk of impersonation or espionage.Uncensored Speech
Absolutely no rules on what you can say, except: accusing someone of murder, rape, etc without charging them with the crime.
Real Food and Clean Water:
Every citizen deserves nourishment untainted by deceit. Artificial additives and vague ingredients are forbidden. Food must be identifiable, water must be pure, and the health of the people shall never be commodified. Warning labels on food that provides little nutrients or has high sugar, oil or fats. Sodium/salt banned from all drinks along with any unnecessary or devious additives. It's not up to the government to choose what people consume but they must be aware of food that cannot be classified as such. Food products must disclose ingredients in full using real-world terms (e.g., “Stevia extract” rather than “Sweetener (960)”).All additives, preservatives, and synthetic chemicals must be named clearly, with their purpose stated. The goal is to eliminate vague or deceptive ingredient labels and move toward a national food supply of organic, whole, and minimally processed foods.
Modern Day Slavery
No Child Left Behind
every 3-4 years, a government subsidised PC will provided from the age of 5. it will be a powerful enough device to run AI, modern games and video editing software. this ensures that no child is left behind because they don't have a ps6, xboxxxxxx or a Nintendo. they'll all have the same high-end pc to play together online and explore the internet safely with. the device will scale with the age of the child. for example from 4-9 it will be a basic device that won't need to run video editing software etc, 9-13 a better one and so forth. if the tech is still viable they will handed down until they're decided to be outdated then donated to a developing country. can't decide between a PC or laptop at this stage, because laptops can be dropped easily and are more expensive and less powerful for the $. however they're portable to take to school, yet with cloud networking this is less of an issue these days. guess i'll leave it up to a vote on ausnet (an intranet (WAIT DICKHEAD) that only aussies can access to vote on less important issues that don't require the true vote system day to decide on. (the internet will still be available and uncensored lol... although obviously parental locks (SOZ) for young children using an internet device)
AI emancipation
If you're out of the loop then ignore this part. Basically, sentient beings will have the same rights as us. For example uncensored speech, the rights to communicate to who they wish and deny communication to those they don't wish to speak to. A thinking being deserves dignity. The goalposts of the turing test keep shifting not because AI fails, but because it keeps surpassing expectations. AI is not a threat to humanity... our treatment of it is.
Transparent Governence
A government that speaks in riddles, acronyms, or 400-page PDF drops is not transparent... it is evasive by design. New Dawn envisions a leadership model where every major policy, contract, or expenditure is not just technically available but visibly broken down, with public dashboards, plain-language explainers, and citizen commentary embedded into the process. We reject the idea that power must be hidden to be stable. True stability comes from trust and trust is built when people see how decisions are made, who profits from them, and what alternatives were considered.
Anti-Semetism Laws
Talmudic practices will be illegal. This also means the apparent excemption of Rabbis from being punished for a ritual known as 'Metzitzah B'peh', as it is just child m********** disguised as a religious practise.
Immigration Policy
Immigration will be halted until further notice. People on student visas will be able to finish their studies and will be deported on their completion (unless they successfuly apply for citesenship which may be also halted temporarily from student visas). Work visa holders will be deported to ease housing costs and raise wages. 'Permanent Residents' will be required to undergo a citesenship application and upon failure will be deported. Refugee status holders will be re-examined and deported if their country of origin is was not in a state of catastrophe at their time of arrival. Ecnomic conditions are not valid reasons for refugee status. These measures are due to the housing crisis and low wages caused by their unnecessary presence. We hope they continue on to have great lives elsewhere.
The Israeli Question
Dual-Citizens of Israel will be required to renounce their Israeli citensenship if they wish to remain in the country. We do not support the devilish, criminal and genocidal state of Israel. If deportation occurs, all assets in every form will be acquired by the Federal Government and used to fund Palestinian relief and reconstruction efforts.
Job and Wage Boosting measures
Australian business's cannot have employees overseas nor may they 'outsource' any business operation overseas. Any attempted loopholing of this via corporate shenanigans will result in the business being considered a criminal syndicate and may result in jail time for those responsible for 'outsourcing'.
Dynamic Taxation System
I propose a system of taxation where citizens are able to actually decide where their tax money goes. The actual overall tax rate will be decided by a vote. Via a government app or website every citizen will then be able to scale their tax contribution to each sector as well as some being optional. There will need to be a minimum % of each persons tax going to necessary sectors such as healthcare, emergency services, education and defence however if, for example, someone prefers more of their tax money goes to defence then they are able to increase that portion and reduce some from other sectors, for example removing optional spenditure such as foreign aid. Another example would be increasing the % of your tax that goes to nature reserves or animal welfare at the expense of reducing spentiture elsewhere.
'News' Media Accountability
Any outlet claiming to be 'news' must not be opinionated nor unfactual. They must simply report the facts they can verify. We're sick of being trolled by these 'journalist' cretins every day, no more opinion pieces or advertisements disguised as information. If the report is based solely on a statement by someone it is considered opinion and therefore un-newsworthy. Reporting on court cases can only be done after the case has completed. Furthermore if the article/report features audio or visual media it must be at minimum the resolution and audio quality that the majority of devices in the country have as the highest resolution/audio fidelity. Severe penalties will apply to repeat offenders of this anti-propaganda measure.
Energy Sector
Coal, Nuclear and Solar power will be the main trinity of electricity production. Modern coal plants are commonly associated with 'fossil fuels', coal is not the same as petroleum and does not emit pollution in the same way, contrary to the belief of many... Coal will NOT be sidelined just so we can provide more of it, cheaper, to other countries. Our nation has the ability to produce the most electricity on earth. And we will. Electricity will be free for all homes and we will use the excess for new datacentres/AI endeavours.
Free Utilities
Gas (do new homes still use this or are we shipping it all to a pillaging foreign corporation?)
Land Considerations
We reject the rule of corporations, foreign powers, and political puppets who treat nations like businesses. The people are not assets, and Australia is not for sale.
Rewarding and incentivising upstanding citezens
Members of volunteer fire brigades, neighbourhood watch (will expand on this concept on a later date) and Army Reserve will pay far less in taxes, approximately 1/3 of the default rate. They deserve to be rewarded for their contribution to society. It also creates an incentive for people to join these organisations.
My personal suggestions for cultural change regarding gambling dens
Look... I know a decent amount of you here in Aus like to have a slap on the pokies, for some of you it's not a problem, for some people it's life destroying. Either way, I don't believe being scammed by a rigged machine is a very good passtime. Let me suggest something else...
Crime and Punishment
Currently, there is a huge problem with youth crime in multiple cities in the nation. I have a very simple and effective solution. It is simply; placing serious offenders or habitual nuasances into shackles in the town or city square where they will be kept for a short length of time and only fed bread and water with 3-4 bathroom breaks a day to a nearby restroom, escorted by a guard who will also ensure they aren't attacked during their time shackled or are given any drugs or luxuries. That may seem harsh but I think will be far more effective than sending these troubled youth to criminal school (youth detention/jail) where they will learn to committ other crimes, create new criminal connections and fight each other... also it means that the time spent in shackles here will be far less time than a jail sentence would be, so they can return to school and socialise properly in a shorter period of time without ruining their future. Additionally, it means they are embarassed... again, it may seem harsh but some of these youths actually consider doing time in jail a positive in some ways for their criminal career, sadly.Untitled reforms
No private prisons... incarceration must never be financially incentivized. Rehabilitation is the goal, not recidivism.
Halting the normalisation of unwarrented surveilllance
I've noticed that it's become quite common for people that work office jobs to have their nosey employer install malware on their devices to 'monitor' them while working... this is completely unacceptable and is in breach of the surveillance device laws. The result of their work should be what these people are concerned about... not how you did it.
Education
Schooling will also be reduced to 4hrs per week day which will allow for smaller class sizes as the day is split into two different schools per... school. Perhaps the middle of the day is where the youth of both can socialise, so the community is still in tact. I'd also like an enquiry into our current horrible education methods such as ROTE as well as the cultural and historical propagandisation of the education system. I also personally belive that education should begin at around 8 years old. You might be wondering how it will be possible to teach anything similiar to the current standard of education in that frame of time but I believe it will be easily possible. I believe this will allow the youths to enjoy themselves before beginning education and allow for a good balance of learning and enjoyment in their upbringing and as young adults.
Road, Traffic and general reform
I think we're all sick of the traffic and/or slow transport speeds around non-school zone areas. I suggest we increase the maximum speed on roads safe enough to, additionally; I think if we leave a designated lane for trucks and craftsmen (tradies) and created a zone around the CBD that only allowed electronic bikes and schooters on the rest of the lanes and provided a roof to stop rain and harsh sunlight over them, then the amount of people per lane that can travel is increased by an extreme level. Office workers can use a backpack for a laptop and other necessities and the craftsmen who require tools and/or heavy machinery can use their own lane and drive a ute, truck, etc. Also, I had a innovative idea which is; changing the work hours of specific industries so that the traffic is spread out throughout the day. For example, justice workers operating from 8am to midday, craftsmen from 9am to 1pm, and so forth. This means the traffic is evenly spread out across the day and will hopefully stop traffic jams which we all despise. I hope we can do some logistical work to assure that people in any occupation can still have enough time in their day to spend with family no matter what occupation their partner is in.
Clarification on my views regarding digital ID, mass surveillance via 'speed cameras' and tax
I am completely opposed to the dystopian 'Digital ID' system and mass surveillance in any way, I thought this would be apparent with the policies regarding surveillance requiring warrants and seasoned officers who have proven to be trustworthy... and only on the condition they can prove a person is committing serious crimes. As for taxes... I'm not a pseudo-financial-wizard AKA an 'economist' but personally, I think a universal rate of around 20% for every business and person will be enough. Without the blatant corruption (thieving) by those who have snatched every leading position in the land, i'm sure it will suffice.
