June’s editorial has this title because all types of elections ought to be an opportunity to thoroughly review and evaluate the political situation as well as the socioeconomic course of the society in which lives the Citizen who is called to a participate in them.
Primarily, before we go on to any further activity we must see what the elections really are and what they have come to be: in all democratic societies the elections and referendum institutions is the most powerful and serious weapon of the People that allows them to express directly and immediately their will. In these cases the results of the elections are considered and must be sacred since they are the real will of the People/ the Demos.
But we have many times proven that there is no Democracy in Greece (and in other countries claiming to be democratic, but at this time we are focusing on our country). This is evident in every day life and manifests fully in our economy, where stratification becomes more and more extreme/ notable, with few rich ones and many poor ones, just like in every Oligarchy History has recorded.
What, then, are the elections when there is no true Democracy?
Of course we can’t claim that the elections express the People’s will, fact which has been repeatedly proven in the political history of the past few years when even in the occasion that the election results ( despite all pressures) does not reflect that which the few of the ruling class desire, the results are either blatantly ignored or the elections are repeated again and again until the desired result is acquired.
What then are in truth the elections in the reality we are experiencing daily and not in the theory that should have been applied?
The elections are the opium of the People.
Just like once, the opium was the blatant and unabashed twisting of religious tenets, positions and obligations to the point of a true social pathology (especially in historical cases like the Crusades and more recently the Jihad issue) so does now, that society places the importance of social happenings in the areas of science and politics, the opium has changed from ‘religion’ to ‘elections’. (We will analyze the true significance of religion and the power it can offer to the People in future articles. The only thing we will keep in mind today is that opium is something that in its proper form bestows the People and the Citizen individually with immense freedom and power.)
But why are the elections opium?
Just as in older times every corrupt and venal, power hungry priest/ cardinal/ mufti/ etc spieled and terrorized the masses through religion since he presented himself as the designated authority/ representative of it, so does now each corrupt politician / economics expert/ corporation owner/ banker-industrialist/ ship owner spiels and terrorizes the masses through the following paths, for which s/he is considered falsely the designated representative and authority:
A) Through politics as the only way of survival of society (politics or social death)
B) Through the economic science as the only way of survival of society (economic measures or death)
Like in older times the priest ( who does it now, as well, but just doesn’t have the social podium he had in earlier times and it is much more socially permitted to ignore him, on the contrary the scientist or the politician must be obeyed with reverence) the politician now frightens the People with the following very wrong arguments of ‘doom’:
“If you reject those who are exploiting the political scene, immediately your life will become terribly difficult/ wild/ monstrous”.
This is completely wrong since those who exploit the political scene act only in such a manner as to keep the People at a safe distance from themselves while they are devouring and embezzling what is the People’s. The People are self-sustaining and in essence self-administered. Many of the People have already realized this and it there wasn’t alienation and interruption of communications between them (as they rely on the mass media to learn what their fellow people really believe, and thus maintain a deeply erroneous image) they would have realized that they are not the only individuals who have seen it and think it.
Therefore, and in manners we will analyze in our articles, since due to space limitation it is impossible to do it in the editorial, to refuse to elect a political party in the elections, European and National, instead of being total disaster can be the rebirth of Democracy. Total disaster will take place only for those who need these state positions to survive and achieve a parasitic life at the expense of the rest.
“If we don’t listen to the economics specialists/ economics scientists blindly, even if simple arithmetic and common logic of every Citizen reveals the magnitude of their incompetence/ corruption, society will collapse.”
That which few realize is that the economic science has not been created for the betterment of the economic situation of all the social strata. The reason for its creation is the ‘control of the market’ as has been rendered clear by its founding fathers such as Adam Smith. Control means in this case how better to embezzle the riches produced by the true productive classes, i.e. the working and middle class. The time period of the creation of this science supports the above, since it was created when it was finally rendered hard (and it was visible that it would soon be impossible) to apply the law of ‘powerful feudal lord/ aristocrat/ land owner’ to usurp the People’s riches. Thus there was created a science (i.e., something that the people had learned to respect as true knowledge they must adhere to and heed) which would present ‘facts’ to the People to convince them to give up on their own their riches and let themselves become poorer on their own (e.g. inflation/ thrift/ crises and therefore destruction of opulent crops/ destruction of production goods/ waiving of rights such as the 8 hour work day/ etc).
In essence and as we have demonstrated in earlier articles, each Citizen who has managed to survive financially despite a thousand unexpected twists and turns, sans ‘safety net’ as the large corporations and corporation owners are said to have, is much more able to take up the country’s money matters than those who award each other every year on a political and industrialist level.
This last year proved the above beyond doubt through the despondence of the Peoples of the Eurozone, which is actually so named because of the guarantee of the Stability and Growth Pact for stable and blooming economies which would make Citizens’ life financially easier. The representative Almunia who ‘decides and decrees’ the economic policy of so many countries has demonstrated how invalid he is since he audaciously has declared that he is simply experimenting and is not at all certain of the success for his assorted planning.
Therefore, common as well as scientific opinion shows that these forces threatening the People in the above manners and doomsday blackmailing statements act only at the expense of the People and not at their interest and thus if they are removed the people will benefit.
If he had true elections, the election result should reflect the general discontent of the People towards all the political parties and towards the European Union itself.
That could occur in two ways, which are in truth one: either have a great percentage of abstention or very low percentages that would forbid the formation of any government (in the case of National elections) or the election of any non-independent Europarliament member.
What does that mean?
When the elections show that nobody appeals to the People, then a Referendum should occur on what the People want and how they want it. Not a gagging through the election of anyone based on ridiculous percentages representing a minority and which have been yielded after complex and nebulous in their logic processes and calculations.
Elections become opium when while the above holds true (great abstention and low percentages in every party) the People are let to believe that they are the ones who chose the small dictator partying at his/her balcony at the end of the count. Thus the People feel that ‘since I voted for him, I will tolerate him without complaint’ while in truth they never did select that person. Thus the People are lulled/ drugged into a lack of reaction when they are abused and financially, socially and politically raped by each ‘government’.
The time has come to understand that anything asking us to irrationally accept things ‘to avoid the worse’, ‘because we have to’, ‘because that’s what’s happening globally’ is the true opium of the People, whether it is ‘religion’ or ‘politics’ or ‘social life’.
Common logic based on real feedback is what helped humans survive. Submission to ‘society’ is what pushed humans to suicide.
Society is the result of human evolution and therefore changes as this evolution occurs. Whenever humans stunt their own evolution (i.e. block their thought, gag their speech, be afraid of the reaction of their surrounding people, chooses the lesser evil and does not decide to create the good rather than wait to be given it by those who have proven to be bad) for the sake of preserving society as it is, humans have literally degenerated.
With the occasion of Euroelection, let’s begin seeing whether we live in a time of full degeneration, so that it will not be necessary to come out of it in the violent manner History has demonstrated is usually done.

Clinically Dead
The definition between what is living and what is dead, though at first sight seems an easy observation to make for anyone, in essence is often presented with countless ‘gray areas’ where what is living and what is dead is hard (in theory) to ascertain. Actually, many ‘experts’ and for sure the mass media claim that in those ‘gray area’ cases the common sense and/ or simple observation based on criteria is not enough to understand whether something can live on or has died. Therefore we often have cases where something that is decomposing is kept yet so that it seems that it is artificially breathing (and therefore give the chance to some to claim that this something is alive) whereas something else that does have life sustains blood letting and attacks until it dies.
Therefore, in those unhealthy cases we have clinically dead ones who slowly decay with the false impression that they are living, breathing the stolen breath of those who have life and therefore produce.
For sure, we are not referring to the cases where people are in the ICU and fight by themselves without the capacity to commit the theft described above. That which we are describing happens only on social, political and economic levels in different versions, from the personal life within a family to the global level and the ‘family’ of the countries and the human race.
In particular, the condition in our society, at least since the eve of the Second World War to today (researchers of different social sciences can claim that this has been happening for a much bigger time span, up to several centuries) has been clinically dead and artificially and violently fed from the potential of the human race which has gone past the state of maturation for the evolution from this current state of society we are experiencing to the next one. In essence our society today is like the human embryo which was remained in the uterus for much more than the nine months needed to perfect the body, and now the uterus which had sustained it is absorbing it again, devouring it since the embryo was not born and remains inside.
How does this translate to our social reality?
During approximately two centuries and the beginning of the 20th, around the globe our society had reached, through parallel processes depending on the country and the culture and special circumstances, the point of birthing we described above: the social condition where few people of doubtful quality and capacity and power subsisted, living off the toil of the many without motivation to evolve but rather motivation to stagnate, was deemed unacceptable and intolerable around the world.
By stagnation we mean the passive and pointless consumption and existence without any specific target but the perpetuation of this pointless consumption, accompanied by a hollow and barren worship of social symbols of establishment which everyone knew were pretexts and not actual (e.g. no scepter of any king or emperor, no capital or luxurious mansion of a corporation owner protected them when their surrounding aristocrats/ capital holders/ relatives decided they didn’t want them or desired a change of scenery).
By passive consumption we mean the desire-‘ambition’ of anyone to acquire ‘wealth’ with the only purpose to maintain one’s body and dress it up (often in funny ways) in a continuous cycle which, however, has no evolution since beyond assorted ways to do the exact same thing (i.e. eat and dress) there is no other element of differentiation or change in personality, way of thinking or improvement of existence of Humans in general.
To be crystal clear, we will define active consumption as the care of an individual to keep him/herself in good health and psychological condition, feeding and dressing his/her body so that he/she be able to achieve some other goal unrelated to his/her bodily maintenance or maintenance in a situation (e.g. social circle) but is instead related to answering questions, research on various levels to have problems solved, improvement of the new generation in all its facets and the general achievement of the betterment of Humans as an existence and living upon the earth. Any Human who does this, does not do it only for him/herself but always does it investing on his/her Fellow Human who also cooperates. Any Human who does not do this belongs to the previous group which causes the condition we are describing today regarding our society.
Why do we place the point in time so far back and not now?
In general lines, from the point in time in any country when enlightenment took place, which was a natural development-reaction of the people who finally could not be satisfied with what they were being told and based on common sense demanded for answers (the middle class is not independent from the rest of the groups of the People but part of them, as we can support sociologically) and of course they got them, from that age on after there came social ‘labor pains’ of birthing in the form of assorted manners of demand for change of the social condition. It is not by chance that all these demands for change are similar regarding the thirst for freedom, education and ensuring of the basic bodily needs of Humans for all Humans. These processes climaxed with the mass abolition (even in name only) of the assorted master-slave relationships where a Human accepted to become an object (for use, buying and selling) for another one, and in their position it was attempted by all the People, with the true middle class at the forefront (i.e. the People who got educated), to establish a new relationship of independent, free and equal, responsible cooperating Humans.
That was the point of birthing: society had by that time matured from the previous stage and was ready to go on to the next, which was ‘in the plans’ as a goal since time immemorial and officially for a staggeringly large part of Humanity for at least 2000 years (beyond the pure Dogma of Christianity without the interpretations and distortion, innumerable Human civilizations had recorded this goal in various forms and at various points in time).
And how did we get from that point to the clinically dead society?
In every birth there is a mechanism that maintains the birthing condition until the baby is born. It is known that if a doctor or a midwife wishes it, he/she knows counter-mechanisms that can stop the birthing and the baby can remain within the uterus.
In that exact same logic, social birthing was interrupted with a series of mechanisms that were applied by all those who are not interested in anything but passive consumption and the maintaining of stagnation, and who exist in all the economic ranks/ levels with a tendency to have a greater concentration of them as we go up: the Second World War (at least, since the First can also be shown to have served matching interests) was a primary measure where a great percentage of the world true middle class, which was responsible for the process of evolution and the current phase of changing the social organization-condition, was eradicated. That is how happenings and ‘inane’ battle organizations/ bombings can be explained, where carnage of people took place, such as the battle of Normandy (D-Day), the bombing of Berlin and Dresden, the mass executions of populations by the Nazi as they were retreating from occupied lands after the war had been judged, the holocaust against the Jewish people, the communists, the People who went against inhuman orders on both sides and the conscientious keeping of all the death penalties meted out by the Nazis by the allies-‘liberators’, even when the death sentence was due to acts against the Axis and for the Allies.
In all the areas and countries where the bloodshed of the Second World War did not eradicate the part of the People promoting the development of society (actually in areas such as Greece, instead of eradicating that element, it was instead enforced and more widely spread), there came immediately and with various pretexts successive and relentless wars / strife, one bloodier than the other. However they were not widely known around the globe nor were they ever tagged as bloody as the last world war because (comparatively) they were smaller, limited only within the borders of the countries still having the healthy, active population- so no matter how high the number of the people lost in each one, it was always lower than the massive number of dead of the WWII carnage. For example, Greece suffered directly after WWII the Civil War, which was what eradicated the communist government the People desired to have. That notwithstanding, there also came dictatorships and other mass pretexts for eradication/dispersing of the Greeks through the waves of immigration in coordination with the persecution/ exiles of specific ideals/ beliefs.
A simple overview of at least 90% of the countries of the world will reveal the exact same pattern: after a People’s-middle class move towards change and evolution of the social condition there comes one or a series of episodes causing mass deaths that as a rule plague exactly those social groups desiring evolution. No exception exists to this rule, even in countries such as Great Britain and the USA.
With the essential eradication of whole generations of the real middle class which is a forefront of the People, we have the reign of the other social group that passively consumes and desires stagnation and therefore the birthing has been arrested/ inhibited. From the labor pains there remains only the illusion that because they stopped, the baby must have been born: it is the hollow repetition and lip service to concepts and words and the twisted use/ reference to successes of this eradicated part of Humanity, while the old order of things is fully applied: the old order of things that has wrongly been called ‘new world order’. That is, by giving the illusion of Democracy, Equality, Freedom and Human Rights, the relationship of master-slave is ruthlessly enforced, with many people depending to the point of life or death from the few and to the point where Humans have gone back to being objects, bought and sold and or equal or lesser worth than a cog in a machine.
But why do we call this condition clinically dead now, and not just evil, unacceptable and inhuman?
Because this condition has died and at this time it is decomposing: humans are pushed to produce things that are useless or far too many while at the same time humans are deprived of vital elements/ goods for their bodily, mental and psychological survival. Very logically, that which fed this society, passive consumption, drops since those who can or want to consume become less and less and richer and richer, making the rest multitudinous groups poor and out of this system. Therefore, just like in any body deprived of its blood, this system which is based on passive consumption is dead. Right now, and for at least twenty years (many more in specific countries) an attempt is simply taking place to convince that instead of dead, this society is alive because it still gives a semblance of breathing, just like anyone clinically dead that is forced to upon the intensive care bed.
In this case, the life support of the clinically dead social system is the continuous ‘stimulation’ of the economy with staggering amounts directed to the plutocratic classes that bloodletted the rest and towards branches of the production that make goods which can’t/ won’t be absorbed by the population and therefore the inevitable is being cultivated to take place with a greater bang (no matter how much the car industry is funded, it won’t be able to sell the cars it will make when the target group is trying to ensure daily food). Therefore the symptom that cased death is accentuated even more and the course towards death is accelerated: i.e., in a body that is bleeding and is about to die from it, a heart stimulant is prescribed that makes it beat faster (and therefore the body looks more alive and likely to regain consciousness), fact which makes what blood there remained in the veins to spill even faster from the wound nobody has sealed.
That is exactly the way the bank funding and bankrupt corporation bail-out method is working in combination with the over-taxing and blatant persecution of humans on a financial and social level as they are pushed to the serfdom of the so-called ‘flexible work conditions/terms’. However, the social system is not going to revive because the People, despite the systematic eradication of its members who promoted the true birthing which was stopped, remember both the labor pains and that which should have been born and never was.
Birthing is one of the strongest commands of nature, almost as powerful in its command as death itself: no matter how much it is artificially arrested, it will take place at some point in time. The same holds for the social condition. The fear through which at this time they are maintaining the old order of things which they name ‘new’ can exist only as long as one doesn’t sense one is going to be immediately exterminated. Fear dissipates when one realizes that one is not ‘going’ to drown, one is drowning and one must reach out and grab the life-buoy or swim. From the moment the People decide to swim on their own without political leaders and ‘help’ from abroad, from allies and international organizations which openly state they have cultivated and caused all this anguish and are going to prolong it (through the statements of Obama, Hilary Clinton, A. Merkel, N. Sarkozy and every other political leader of every country, who speak of taxation and pressure on the People even at the expense of Human Rights to fund the super-rich individuals belonging to the highest plutocratic classes) and to accentuate it, then that which was blocked in the middle of the 20th century will take place in full.
Therefore, in those unhealthy cases we have clinically dead ones who slowly decay with the false impression that they are living, breathing the stolen breath of those who have life and therefore produce.
For sure, we are not referring to the cases where people are in the ICU and fight by themselves without the capacity to commit the theft described above.

State and Polity (part 2)
The decomposition of States and the anarchy attacking them are created by the fact that the basic defense mechanism every State ought to have (and claims it has) is not employed but rather is nonexistent or atrophied: the People’s check.
The People’s check is defined as the full participation and interaction of each individual Citizen in the functioning of the State and the application of the basic rules and values so that maintenance and continuous renewal of ‘the State contract’ which determines the cooperation and organization of all the citizens with common purpose the maximization of the quality of living and development/ evolution of it is achieved.
Theoretically this is happening today, in the anarchic and decomposing state, but in essence it is not happening because a factor counteracting fully the power of the People’s check has been introduced: representation.
Representation is a weapon of the anarchic subgroups exploiting the states around the world and which cancels out two basic functions of the Citizen and thus turning him/her into a malleable unit. The factors being arrested/ cancelled out are the alertness of the Citizen and his/her determination. That is, with the representative, the Citizen relies on that and stops occupying him/herself with what he/she has entrusted in the representative and thus learns not to react and not to act in regulation in the cases when the authorities and the rules of the State the Citizen has created are breached. When, in the end, there comes the time where the Citizen will need to intervene, the time or reaction and effectiveness of the reaction are significantly diminished regarding efficiency. Also, the concept of the representative as it is presented implies that the Citizen doesn’t have the capacity to be as effective as the representative and therefore it is up to the representative to enforce the Citizen power. When, therefore, the Citizen needs to check the representative he/she feels he/she can’t, he/she hesitates, he/she is afraid and is generally undecided, thus allowing the representative (who is not representing the Citizen but the anarchic subgroups) to infringe even more on the Citizen rights.
If there is no representation but on the contrary the Citizen is called to contribute and check for him/herself that the authorities are applying and defending the law and the Constitution, we achieve the maintenance of the People as powerful, dynamic and effective arbitrator and defender of the State which the People have created. The People’s control without representation is an unbeatable force which is non-bribable and only very briefly and very difficultly swayable for the sole reason that the People are numerous and based on the general election percentages, 70% unconvinced by political manipulations. We see that because primarily the percentages electing governments in the state as it is now don’t surpass 30-35% (and only with the great influx of voters from sources not purely of the People such as immigrants and nationals of the diaspora) after highly complex and fabricated election laws and electoral constituencies where a single vote is virtually multiplied by a thousand via all these procedures.
It has been clearly stated by politicians and political analysts that if the simple vote count system was used- a majority wins system-, which would be the true representation of People’s will, there would be no chance of the government getting established in any way except a composite one (from all parties) which means that the People’s will would be the one determining situations and not the hostage situation of the People by a few groups/ families which consist the political aristocracy (including the hereditary right) surrounding the king-prime minister.
Therefore, based on the rules of democracy the People has already rejected and continues to reject systematically all those boasting that they have received the People’s order and who in essence are a dreadfully small minority compared the massive majority of all the active Citizens regardless of religion and political alignment.
We see therefore that the People’s check is very healthy and has the full capacity through true democracy to oversee and apply the rules the People themselves have put in place through struggles which, with mathematic accuracy, have always been sabotaged or been embezzled by these anarchic groups specializing in the corruption and twisting of every system of rules and values that by nature revokes the capacity for these groups to be unfettered, anarchic and with impunity.
What does this mean for the State and how can we as People bring about not change, as we don’t need to change the value and rule system our forefathers have founded, but the application of the Constitutional values as they are described in the first part of the Constitution and is the same as the Human Rights Bill?
This means that we will have to stop leaning against representatives of any kind and we should stop considering them a safety buoy but rather we should understand that we already know how to swim- and very well: we shoved off the true difficulties and hardship without any representatives. We should use representatives as they were meant to be used; as technical advisors who will help us swim faster and with less effort. We must realize that we have the capacity, skill and intelligence/ critical thought to understand whether a representative does not serve us, but rather undermines us and destroys us, and therefore when we are better off without him/her, relying on the experience in swimming we have acquired from our ancestors who passed it on to us.
The People have already realized the above and that is why the banks are emptied from the People’s cash that the bankers didn’t manage to get, the market doesn’t move except in ways benefiting the People rather than the intermediary and the climate of discontent and anger towards the sum of the politicians and the great capital holders is so heavy that K. Karamanlis was forced to enter and exit the Vellidio building (where he would deliver his speech) while running and surrounded by an army of bodyguards when there were People gathered and engaged in political behaviors.
The next step the People must take so that this correct and very intelligent, healthy position is translated in action for the whole of the People is to decide that each one of them is infinitely more capable (regardless of socioeconomic condition) than all those politicians the People have rejected and who are improperly in Parliament, in the government and in Society. Therefore each of the People can and ought to activate the last clause of the Constitution and demand that all those anarchists withdraw for ever after they have reimbursed the People in every way for the disobedience to the People order that has been given systematically since the beginnings of the 20th century regarding the assorted important issues of Greek Society, and which orders have been systematically ignored.
This involves denial to take into account or heed any order/ law/ legislation/ taxation/ tax/ general demand imposed on the people unconstitutionally and abusively, denial to fund this anarchic state (i.e. stop paying taxes, fines, tolls, state fees). In this manner the huge, blocked political power of the People’s check will be released immediately since in essence we will deny to consent, support and submit not to the democratic system which is our own creation, but to this random micromandarinistic anarchic group of ‘politicians’ which disobeys Democracy and the People’s Order for them to leave, and underhandedly enforces kingship and aristocrats to the People’s face.
This display of the People’s power will be huge: the only thing that we need to consider is how the unabashed oppression/ racism against the Blacks of the USA crumbled, when the only thing they stopped doing was to pay the bus fare ticket, worth a few pennies, fact which was the trigger and the lever of their liberating struggle for Human Rights, which they won. The only thing that was needed was perseverance and determination for a year (December 1955 – November 1956).
Of course such an act, so revolutionary and abiding by the Constitution (since it is the manner with which the People will enforce Democracy, forcing these usurping anarchists to stand down with the terms and the manner the People will demand) will bring about great reaction from the politicians, big business people, bankers, ship owners/ industrialists/ grand commerce dealers and their lackeys who are fed from them (i.e. phenotypically ‘people of the People’, such as reporters, journalists, satiric showmen, special commentators, etc, who however belong to a party and fight tooth and nails to direct common opinion according to the orders of their bosses that we just mentioned), mainly of a propaganda- oriented nature. They will try to threaten and terrorize the People that they will not have work, pensions, salaries, wages, payment, electricity, water, phone services if the People don’t continue to pay the assorted head taxes and other taxes of the illegal and unfair kind. They will terrorize with threats of every kind of violence from robberies to international forces to force the People to waive their power and continue to pay. It is characteristic that the moment the People began not entrusting their money to the banks (the media indirectly admit that the banks have emptied from the deposits of the People granting them cash flow), several incidents of theft and robberies were reported from the news, telling indirectly but certainly to the People that if they don’t want to have their money stolen and their lives threatened, they should return their money to the bank.
That which we must keep in mind is that these threats are up to 90% empty and the 10% of threats which needs our attention is fully handleable with social solidarity and decision to have each Citizen move without depending on the means given by the state system, while this state system is in the control of anarchic subgroups described in part 1, and which are at this moment ‘governing’ us. Also we must keep in mind that while the chances are that each Citizen will earn many thousands of euro doing this resistance (since the Citizen won’t pay taxes and tax pays and fines enforced but will instead keep the money for personal use) the current ‘power holders’ we described will be losing thousands or even millions of euro by the hour, thus losing also power and lackeys.
Therefore, it will be a matter for time to oust those who have in essence abolished Democracy and are jeering the Constitution and the laws we as the People have voted in referendums and enforced with actual mobilizations so that we will be able to reinstate the State from anarchic to ordered, relieving the Constitution and legislation from clauses that are traitorous, remnants of the Junta by Papadopoulos, Metaxas and older ones which have no relation whatsoever to the Democratic Constitution the People consented to have so that they will be able to have control of their political, social and natural life according to Human Rights.
In the next editorial we will explain step by step the functioning of the correct Democratic State and how the occupation of the People with it can yield for the People the monthly revenue of more than 3,000 euro based on the Gross National Product of the country and simple addition and subtraction skills.
The People’s check is defined as the full participation and interaction of each individual Citizen in the functioning of the State and the application of the basic rules and values so that maintenance and continuous renewal of ‘the State contract’ which determines the cooperation and organization of all the citizens with common purpose the maximization of the quality of living and development/ evolution of it is achieved.
Theoretically this is happening today, in the anarchic and decomposing state, but in essence it is not happening because a factor counteracting fully the power of the People’s check has been introduced: representation.
Representation is a weapon of the anarchic subgroups exploiting the states around the world and which cancels out two basic functions of the Citizen and thus turning him/her into a malleable unit. The factors being arrested/ cancelled out are the alertness of the Citizen and his/her determination. That is, with the representative, the Citizen relies on that and stops occupying him/herself with what he/she has entrusted in the representative and thus learns not to react and not to act in regulation in the cases when the authorities and the rules of the State the Citizen has created are breached. When, in the end, there comes the time where the Citizen will need to intervene, the time or reaction and effectiveness of the reaction are significantly diminished regarding efficiency. Also, the concept of the representative as it is presented implies that the Citizen doesn’t have the capacity to be as effective as the representative and therefore it is up to the representative to enforce the Citizen power. When, therefore, the Citizen needs to check the representative he/she feels he/she can’t, he/she hesitates, he/she is afraid and is generally undecided, thus allowing the representative (who is not representing the Citizen but the anarchic subgroups) to infringe even more on the Citizen rights.
If there is no representation but on the contrary the Citizen is called to contribute and check for him/herself that the authorities are applying and defending the law and the Constitution, we achieve the maintenance of the People as powerful, dynamic and effective arbitrator and defender of the State which the People have created. The People’s control without representation is an unbeatable force which is non-bribable and only very briefly and very difficultly swayable for the sole reason that the People are numerous and based on the general election percentages, 70% unconvinced by political manipulations. We see that because primarily the percentages electing governments in the state as it is now don’t surpass 30-35% (and only with the great influx of voters from sources not purely of the People such as immigrants and nationals of the diaspora) after highly complex and fabricated election laws and electoral constituencies where a single vote is virtually multiplied by a thousand via all these procedures.

In the next editorial we will explain step by step the functioning of the correct Democratic State and how the occupation of the People with it can yield for the People the monthly revenue of more than 3,000 euro based on the Gross National Product of the country and simple addition and subtraction skills.
State and Polity (part 1)
The organization and composition of a state is not much different than the organization and composition of a business or a family. Before we begin our analysis, where we will examine whether in reality we have a state and not anarchy, as well as what constitutes the existence of a truly person-centered state, we will have to define and make clear the basic terms which we will be using.
State is what we call a system of values and rules which are commonly accepted by a greatly numbered group of people and which has as ultimate goal the improvement and development of the quality of life of these people. Its continuous concern is the defense of ‘all’s well’ for all the subgroups which have consented to its constitution. A state can never be anarchic because its survival and efficiency depends on the administrative authorities established and accepted for the serving and maintenance of the values and rules.
State functioning is what we call the systematic application of rules and values as well as the reform or further enactment of new rules when it is necessary due to the development of civilization and/or technology, with singular purpose the defense of the founding values of the state and the continuous improvement of any problems without harming any unit from the people who have consented to participate in that state, i.e. the Citizens.
State rules are called the laws which serve and apply the basic axioms and dogma which the Citizens have commonly accepted during the creation of the state at least and which are contained in the base of these rules, called the Constitution (or any other analogous system/ recording of basic values/ axioms according to the Regime).
Anarchy is the abolition and/or non-application of the values and rules which the entirety of the Citizens had accepted: in anarchy the administrative authorities don’t upkeep the laws and the Constitution, apply unilateral or abusive or unconstitutional regulations and defend the anarchic, unfettered activity and power of one subgroup (or more) of the state’s Citizens. Additionally the protection and defense of the state from outward factors and foreign groups of people are abolished.
With the above definitions we conclude that the more the uncontrolled activity of one subgroup is allowed, the more the basic demand/ target of each state is trespassed and the more it begets anarchy. Therefore a state which has a dictatorship where a small group of dictators arbitrarily decides and orders without check is a state in anarchy. A state which has clear kingship where the king has super-authority and no actual controlling/ checking service is a state with a propensity to anarchy since a king can very easily do what he likes regardless of whether that is against his oath/ sacrament which he has taken/ has been given.
In the case of Greece (but also many other state who aren’t de facto totalitarian) we can see that the basic ingredients of a state exist but what reigns and has been reigning for at least 80 years is anarchy. We can support that easily by historically looking into the breach of laws and the Constitution by all kinds of elected authorities, governments, legislative authorities, judicial authorities as well as kings and military/ police officers who defended the impunity and unfettered ‘above the law’ activity of social groups such as business people, family dynasties since the era of the Turkish Occupation/ Franc Occupation, party members, ship owners and industrialists, bankers as well as the highly traitorous and subversive foreign policy. Unconstitutional laws are enacted and upkept while constitutional laws and constitutional principles are abolished and affronted.
Historically we have presented examples proving the above in our articles regarding the families of politicians such as Papandreou and Karamanlis families, and we will present more pertinent to ship owner families and great dynasties making incursions in Greece since before 1830. For some examples of undermining of Greece in foreign policy, we will mention now (and analyze in the future) the non-observance of the treaties of the end of the First World War, the campaign to Asia Minor in 1921-1922, the ignoring of the activity of the Yugoslav dictator Tito, the unacceptable handling of the Greek-Turkish disputes (the issue of the exchange of populations in Constantinople/ Istanbul and Thrace, the occupation and bloodshed in Cyprus, the incident at Imia isles, the issue of the Aegean shelf, and others) and the lack of defense of the Greek interests from the undermining and underhanded attack of Bulgarian and Albanian and other interests abetted by the USA and the UK.
Internally we can prove the chronic anarchy of the Greek state by seeing the prevailing situation all around as, every day:
1. laws and legislation that freely and bounteously are composed and enacted are unconstitutional, from the financial/ tax-gathering policy which is unequal between different social classes, with the privileged being tax-exempt and the rest being over-taxed (a breach of article 4 of the constitution), to the full impunity of public servants who have provenly abrogated their duty as well as broken the basic laws/ values of the criminal code (e.g. people such as Nikolaos Garganas and George Provopoulos, Panagis Vourloumis, P. Athanasopoulos, Theodore Katsanevas, Fivos Ioannidis, George Chiotis, Gregorios Solomos, Nektarios Miltiades, I. Vartholomaios, George Mergos, Constantine Kontos, and others).
2. business people, members of family dynasties, industrialists and ship owners are not persecuted by the law and when and if they are finally persecuted, whatever the sentence is, is not applied (e.g. Lanaras family, Bardinogiannis, Latsis, Niarhos, Kyriakou, Kokkalis, Bgenopoulos families and others) resulting in having people who have committed crimes of the criminal code and have been sentences or proven to have committed them being free and the recipients of public money, positions and power for which a clean criminal record is supposedly required. This protection, through legislations regarding data of a personal nature, extends to people committing slander/libel which, however, is to the interest of these subgroups while the same legislations on data of a personal nature are disregarded in all other cases.
3. policing is non-existent, leaving the Citizens unprotected against killers, robbers, burglars, rapists, blackmailers with the usual excuse of lack of staff which, however, is used to protect and insulate from the People the social subgroups we have previously mentioned. In essence, that is, the police is used as a guard protecting these subgroups from the People who is left unprotected and is forced to take precautions that wouldn’t have been necessary if there was a correct allocation of police staff (e.g. the resorting to banks to keep money, even small amounts, fact which gives more power to the bankers and weakens the Citizens who stop being independent at any moment, since they need permission to use their funds; funds which can be withheld by the bank at any moment).
4. the protection of the Citizens and public decency which is necessary for the psychological protection from traumatizing young people, though legislated and highly strict, is never applied by the state nor the church. And so we have an overabundance of pornographic documents, shows and films without protection of the part of the population not wanting to be exposed to them but being forced (though ads, magazine covers and the like), we have incidents of prostitution and organizations/ overt businesses of exploitation of prostitutes which is illegal, as well as exposure to uncontrolled violence in all levels at a rate far beyond the psychologically healthy one.
5. the Citizen, though according to the Constitution agrees to be and is independent and capable to personally execute many of the acitivities regarding the state, justice and politics, is raised and terrorized to believe that it is necessary/ obligatory to use any kind of representative/ mediator in order to have any hopes of being heard of effective. This includes representatives such as lawyers, accountants, dealers, commerce dealers, bank advisors, parliament members/ syndicalists/ politicians of all shapes and sizes. All these intermediaries create factions which terrorize and degrade the Citizen to even a blatant level, demanding full submission, lack of will and dependence on them even if they objectively are acting slyly, falsely or nonsensical. Indicative of this situation is that all these intermediaries do not carry responsibility for the policy/ way of life they impose on the Citizen (i.e. the law does not persecute them for false evaluations and/or sly or undermining actions on their part) while the Citizen carries full responsibility for the actions of these people from the prime minister to his/her personal accountant and lawyer.
We see, therefore that while the Constitution of the State of Greece presumes and demands the equality of all the Citizens and the equal handling of these Citizens before the law and society, the defense of the economic wellbeing of every Citizen (something which holds for every State on earth which has signed the Bill of Human Rights), in reality what is happening is that the life, fortune and well being of the Citizen has no value and is up for exploitation and abuse by third parties while specific subgroups/ group in and out of Greece are considered valuable and irreplaceable and owners of the rest of the Citizens.
This shows that the State of Greece (but also every State which has signed the Bill of Human Rights and has the above situation politically and socially) is anarchic and therefore unable to evolve. Something which is anarchic and unable to evolve is in a state of decomposition and therefore is on a digressing course until full annihilation, at least in the form the Citizens had agreed for it to have. In our era this decomposition leads to the abolition of States and therefore Citizen protection, with their classification in a huge group which will be exploited even more anarchically the same subgroups doing so now.
State is what we call a system of values and rules which are commonly accepted by a greatly numbered group of people and which has as ultimate goal the improvement and development of the quality of life of these people. Its continuous concern is the defense of ‘all’s well’ for all the subgroups which have consented to its constitution.

For the first August fortnight
The month of August is the designated month of vacations, during which everyone considers it their obligation to go through the process generally implied by the expression ‘I am going on vacations’.
This means, more or less, that for the average Greek (and most possibly internationally all Citizens) to have the feeling that finally he/she can and is allowed to rest, he/she must:
1. have gathered a satisfactory amount of cash (usually around 40% of his/her annual income) aside of the standard expenses such as bills, taxes, installments, etc.
2. have organized the moving and stay in specific vacation sites
3. have ensured the participation of friends in the particular expedition
4. have renewed / acquired the necessary equipment, clothing, body, appearance so that he/she will be able to feel they can appear in public.
5. have ensured stay/ maintenance of the house and any pets.
In the case that one has a summer house, along with the above requirements, one will have to clean house, do general maintenance and oversee any repairs that need to be done before the house is ‘livable’ and before one can justify to oneself that they can sit back and rest. Keeping in mind that the average duration of leave is between a week and 15 days, the pure days of rest are much fewer and the fatigue accumulating before them is augmented and quite demanding.
Consequently, what we see is that the process of vacationing (which implies that one takes leave from work) is many times much more tiring than daily routine.
So, what is it that makes them so attractive?
Primarily it is the sensation that what we do is not work (i.e. obligatory work we haven’t chosen). Also, it is the change of scenery and the potential of access to places and experiences that are not typical where we live.
But far stronger than all that, is the power we believe we get on a social level:
The capacity to answer to your social circle’s question “Where will you go on vacations?” with some answer in the lines of “This year, we’ll go…” instead of the infinitely shameful “This year we’ll stay here/ we’ll go to the village/ the usual place” is worth enough to the insecure person so that he/she will go through the entire procedure which may cost him/her much more than just fatigue (especially in cases such as getting vacation loans one cannot later pay for), just because he/she will feel that he/she will not be rejected by the members of his/her so-called social circle.
We cannot, therefore, accept that this whole process aims to the rest and replenishing of strength as the purpose theoretically is.
And what would be real vacations?
Real vacations would have to entail what the word means: A break from the several procedures and things which cause us fatigue WITHOUT OUR FURTHER BURDENING OR THE BURDENING OF OUR FUTURE.
And how can that happen?
Primarily, we must not burden ourselves during the vacation time with extra or similar pressures as the ones we daily face (e.g. if we daily have the concern that we must coordinate other colleagues in the office or other people, or if we must obey to the orders of higher ranking people, cluster and fight for the conquering of a position/ privilege/ proviso/ etc, we can’t allow for them to transform into matching worries and strife/ attempts during vacations).
Also, we must not burden ourselves with added stresses or try to take away stresses in a manner that we know will trouble us after the end of the vacations.
At all costs, our vacations must be saturated with enthusiasm but also quiet and the activities during our vacations must be the ones we truly like and not the ones our peers and social circle think are necessary to take place during vacations (you can very easily find out and see which activities these are if you wonder what you do during work ‘to waste time’ and what is that which its thought alone rests you, and when you have done it you feel full of energy even if the body is tired).
Remember: The biggest thing from which we must take vacations is the pressure of others, of friends, of social ‘musts’ and of the stereotypes of what must be done during vacations instead of what we want to be done during vacations.
Before we discuss it in the next editorial, think:
1. who truly benefits from the process of vacationing?
2. Who is the one who truly rests and who is the one who accumulates more burdens along with the existing ones of the past years?
3. In the end, what would be the perfect vacations for everyone?
We will discuss all that, but if you give us your answers we will mention more direct examples.
