Power establishments: relax.

   Advice to power establishments (entities such as Governments of all
   kinds, large companies, religious establishments of all kinds, etc
   etc) on how to cope with proposed changes in a good way.

   Sit back and watch what the people want, and how powerfully they want
   it.

   Based on that, assuming the want for changes becomes powerful, just
   try to earn points in the proces itself for yourselve, put yourselves
   at the head to the degree you already are. This can and probably will
   be profitable for both you and the rest of the people. You can look
   after your own interests while guiding the changes in a good way,
   while the people don`t have to go through a lot of needless struggles
   that could become a pain for all parties.

   It is irrelevant whether certain entities where derided for whatever
   in the past and/or on my site etc, what counts is the present & the
   future. Points can be scored now and in the future. Points that would
   be worth remembering while the pain and mistakes by all parties - both
   establishments and the people who also failed to set up real
   structures that would work for all so far - of the past would be
   worthy of forgetfullness. Let not the mistakes of the past create more
   regrets for the future. Forget who exactly was guilty of what, since
   all where guilty if not of action then inaction, if in return the
   change process could be done in a relaxed, not very fast but careful
   way.

   South Africa has made a remarkable way to make changes in a
   non-violent way, through truth and reconcilliation. That was after a
   battle that the establisments lost. How much more easy and friendly
   would it all be if the establishments of power do not go to war with
   the people who want change, but we work together and aim for the long
   term future. Is it worth it for power establishments to fight hard for
   15 years, when in a non combative way the power establishments bend a
   little more all the time, and the people in the establishments live
   out a reasonably good life ? In return for that, of course, the power
   establishments would have to be sure not to be prosecuted hard after
   losing more & more power. I`d say: by playing nice, you`re going to
   earn yourselves the points that make you earn being treated nice in
   return in the eyes of the people.

   Death & destruction is not the goal, long term better future is: for
   all, the more the better.

   There is no reason to fear the change process to get stuck and things
   remaining the same, because the program is far too detailed to allow
   it to come to a permanent standstill (assuming theory = correct).
   Quick & decisive is not necessary, slow and careful are beneficial in
   principle.

   Why would it bother anyone when some high up director rides a big car
   and has a free standing home for the time being and maybe that is
   decades, when we know such things will probably not be easy or
   possible to get from exploiting other people in the reasonably near
   future (decades, centuries). When we know the exploitation is going to
   end relatively soon by making slow headway with the program, then the
   old remains of exploitation aren`t impressing or enraging anymore in
   the way they otherwise might. I say that is a deal too good not to
   take up for the power establishments. Realize also that if you are in
   the power establishment in a country that has a trade economy as they
   probably almost all or all have, you are probably in the possession of
   marketable skills. You should be able to market those skills again in
   the true trade economy that would result, where work and skill would
   be rewarded and crime and lazyness not. So what is there to fear.
   Peace is best achieved through peace, even if it takes longer that is
   often worth the trouble. So don`t be so afraid about a terrible "mob
   rule" revolution and that everyone would be put to the wall and shot
   who wasn`t "with us." That is quite unlikely to happen, I`m certainly
   not seeking it, one way or the other.

   The power establishments shouldn`t expect to be able to win this if
   they are against my basic 4 points program. Since you`re so unlikely
   to win, why not play along and get as much out of it as you can in a
   good and positive way. If you do, who am I to deny you your gains in
   that. If need be I`ll try to stop violence on ruling class prisoners
   if it where to come to a violent clash somewhere. It is not just the
   ruling class who is guilty, the exploited class is guilty as well. For
   one thing, guilty for allowing a ruling class to emerge and have it be
   populated by people who where then enticed to do not so good things at
   times. The people could have easily done more if they wanted to.
