Western Civilization.

[Rodion Romanovich]

So from a long time i thought to start a thread here in backroom on this fine evening. I have been thinking again(i know,i shouldnt bother myself with such trivial things )Simple question, how are we doing?These days we hear lot about the clash of civilizations, Immigration problems, social problems, economical problems, decadence, birth rates. You name it.
Is the Western Civilization really going towards is Sundown or is this just complete noncence about people worrying about nothing?

Things to improve:

1. foreign affairs - use a more passive policy and try to clean our conscience in international affairs. If someone comes with death treaths we don't need to act, because most of them only give empty words. Those who don't are quickly discovered and can be attacked with precision.
a. avoid things like the Iraq war, unless apologies of formal declarations of change and despise of the earlier policies are made
b. all western leaders must read history to know which old conflicts they'll face. Conflicts from 50-100 years back may continue in the reign of someone who didn't take part in starting the conflicts, and he thinks he's unprovokedly attacked when the opponent in reality launches a counter-offensive and revenge. Knowing when it isn't unprovoked is a good start when acting internationally.
c. use a heavily earmarked form of aid to the third world. Only give aid to pensions, not to education and the young. It's the lack of pension that causes the overpopulation in the third world and only by ending overpopulation can these countries stop being such infernos. And only if they stop being infernos will illegal mass immigration of people with mental damages from war to western countries continue. Countries whose leaders immediately take this money and prevents it from proper usage will lose the aid money. The population then needs to revolt or continue to live in poverty. Due to the importance of aid for them, this will cause revolts that the local leaders can't stop, especially if we stop selling arms to them, see 2d.

2. internal constitutional affairs
a. maintain democracy at all costs and reinforce it
b. stop wiretapping, population control, constitutional crises, two party systems, problematic bureaucracy for starting new parties, the difficulties for new parties to get mass media attention.
c. in those countries who have them, close all torture camps and start treating prisoners of war humanely. All prison camps must be public so everybody can see what happens in them. Only reason to hide what goes on in a camp is because there is something to hide. The nazis and commies hid their camps for a reason. There's nothing good coming out of hiding such camps from the public if you don't have anything to hide - the rumors will have the same effect as if the camps were nazi concentration camps even if they aren't.
c. improve education so people don't vote for madmen
d. forbid companies in western countries from selling arms to dictators or oppressive leaders abroad, regardless of whether they're at war with western countries or not. This way local stability and peace is assured, and thus less overpopulation and less illegal immigration problems remain.

3. immigration
a. by ensuring peace and stopping overpopulation in the third world by mainly 1c, the immigration will decline. This is good for everyone because the entire world can't live in Europe and America - the rest of the world must be made peaceful and stable so it is inhabitable
b. by 1b and 1a (and also 1c), the guilt from colonialism times will be go away, and people abroad will over time stop being hostile to the western world. When this guilty rightly disappears, people in the western world will want to defend the western world, rather than rebel against it. Currently ablut 50% in every wester world country seems to support terrorists and other people that would normally be an enemy of their countries. This is something that must end, but it won't end by terror, wiretapping and persecution of the local population, but through making them trust their leadership. Once this guilt disappears, and the situation in the third world countries improves, immigration will decrease, but also - more importantly - we have a right to (and 99% will feel so) stop the illegal immigration with harsh measures, in the cases where it damages us. When it doesn't, it can of course continue if we wish so.
c. all immigrants from war regions should be given therapy to deal with their mental problems. This would decrease the violence crimes among immigrants, which are cause of incorrect racism accusations.
d. the immigration must be limited so the local cultural group maintains a majority, so as to ensure there are no rapid switches between say islamic rule and western rule. The regions must be stable and maintain approximately the same culture, except for components of the culture that are dangerous in one way or another. Because western culture seems to be the most tolerant at this time, it's important that all countries currently having a western secular/atheistic/Christianity-based culture maintains such a culture, and that can only happen if they are a majority so that no parties with say islamic or other non-western basis gets to power in these countries.
e. end all labor immigration until at least 95% of all currently living in western countries have jobs

4. enlightenment
a. a good school system must be kept. Only by keeping a good school will people vote democratically and understand the dangers of colonialistic attitude, racism or similar and the importance of maintaining democracy. It's people that have gone through a country's school system that becomes the next ruling generation. Therefore the least successful students in school must understand the value of democracy. There should be no propaganda style emotional way of teaching about democracy and history, but a realistic and dry presentation of the facts. A democracy being democratic because democracy is good is not a democracy for long, as it's easy to redefine the meaning of the word democracy if the people are unaware of it's true meaning and the motivation behind it.
b. make sure science is sponsored by the state. State-sponsored science must be a counter-weight to the heavily biased company-sponsored science aiming to prove the superiority of a product (which often isn't superior)

5. military - there should be no problems maintaining superior military force if the above things are implemented. The western countries if all have implemented democracy etc. are likely to stand up against any countries not having implemented these things if needed. Thus the military strength of an individual western country doesn't matter as much as the total strength of western countries. Countries that keep using torture, doubtful foreign policies, colonies in Africa etc., will of course be excluded from this deal and such countries will weaken the position of democracy in general in the world. Democratic countries should do everything that is legal and not a hostile act, to make such countries go back to democracy.

6. economy - this shouldn't be any problem either, because the western world is a large portion of the world. As long as environmental friendly long term solutions to energy problems etc. are found, all will be ok. If needed, the western world concept may have to be expanded, by including more nations and people into the concept. All people who embrace democracy, freedom of speech and critisize torture and brutal barbaric treatment of POWs and similar should be allowed to become part of the western world concept. A plan should be made from if economical problems strike the western world countries but doesn't hurt countries that aren't part of the western world and are undemocratic. Such a situation is unlikely to occur if proper global military industry espionage is employed.

7. status quo for nuclear weapons - no nuclear weapons must be used by western world countries unless attacked first by a nuclear weapon from a country that isn't democratic.

8. ending exploitation of foreigners
a. use police actions to end imported prostitutes. If this fails, legalize prostitution but force all prostitutes to be registered. Visting unregistered prostitutes should give harsh sentences
b. western companies should be responsible for making sure subsidiaries and companies abroad they buy raw materials and products from should implement acceptable working conditions for the people in those countries.

Summary: the 3 most important factors are 1. remove all guilt from the western world so people get a good conscience and are motivated to fight for the right to live with western ideals in the countries that form the western world at this time. 2. only way to properly remove this guilt is to remove all reasons for others to hate the western world, so we rightly deserve to defend ourselves. It's about increasing the morale of the western world basically. The reason why the western world must survive at this time is because currently it's one of the few parts of the world that are attempting to be tolerant. To maintain tolerance, you must be intolerant to the intolerant gaining power. However this would be a 100 year program, so we must be prepared to face enemies during the time we carry this out. However if we truly make efforts BEFORE they are hostile to us, we have shown that we are trying to help and not weak who submit to their demands and that using terror won't give them benefits. Then we also improve our abilities to defend ourselves. Defending does however not mean attacking an entire country because 10 suicide bombers from that country carried out a terrorist action. Our work on airport security etc. and education for our police forces has given results. Wiretapping and terrorizing abroad has however had no positive effects. 3. make sure democracy is maintained so dictatorship doesn't put dangerous leaders at power in our countries. Internal dictatorship is a more dangerous thing than any external threat in the foreseeable future could ever be.
