Oneupmanship, competition, dominance, self- righteousness and all other forms of putting one right over another are currently being de-emphasized throughout the world.
eg. Classism,racism, ageism and just general trying to out do or our think others has proven to be unevolutionary , no matter how good the point may be.
The central tenet of the best course for mankind is without any words. This is because we have observed through history that even the best worded ideas, with the noblest of intentions have been corrupted to serve the powers that be. ( Marxism springs to mind).
I propose an earth council made up of odd numbers to make important decisions regarding the well being of humanity. A Theocracy.
Mind you, this theocracy should be able to extrapolate on any and all decisions made backed by sound reasoning and backed by a consensus.
While my proposal may seem controversial and subject to ill factors such as mavhavelinism (don't know how to spell it), the council of this theocracy should be backed by the majority, their decisions should be transparent and a general philanthropic view should be maintained regarding all decisions.

I believe this to be better than capitalism and is the best system I can come up with .
Also while it would always refer to genuine democratic principles,às per the larger , more evolved universe, ultimately the final word would rest fully on this Theocratic council comprised of an odd number of members🙃

The only successful economic system is one that encourages hard work and productivity, innovation and invention. research and development. Some systems fail to do these things.

Trying to develop an economic system that seeks to change human nature is going to fail.

I like a system I would call One World Capitalism. Its where all the countries open their borders and allow capitalists to develop their country. Poverty will disappear in 20 years or less. The only problem is that capitalism creates greed and destruction of the environment. So you also need a strong government that will appropriately tax the wealthy capitalist corporations and use that to develop other areas capitalist ignore, and control what areas are to be left untouched.

Just hang in there. Jesus will return soon and establish the only "theocracy" that will ever succeed. One king, and no more elections.

The knowledge of God will fill the earth.

I disagree. Although I can see why you may think it would fail.
Thing is we are far ahead than we think .
Like people get thought of as the people they were 6-10 months where in the now they could be significantly changed

Yes, but your idea seems like just a stepping stone.
What would heaven on Earth be like on adaily, practical basis?

Sounds good. And I don't worry. But spirit of Jesus of Nazareth won't be long.

Making changes to ones behaviour is easy. I am referring to the basic personality which I think is hardwired into a mans DNA and it cannot change. Certain characteristics are fixed and this could be bad or good.

It'll never work. As soon as people get a sniff of power, all ideals go out of the window and they revert to type. People are just not suitable to be in charge of other people.

I agree, but greed useful. It is the driving force behind capitalism. Good governments can channel this greed to productive uses for the benefit of the whole country. Hoping everyone changes is pointless

Exactly right. I for one would never allow myself to be ruled over by a bunch of elitists so they can tell me how to live.

They rule of law! What a novel idea. I wonder if it would work?
