A simple explanation of a Geodesic Democracy

Geodesic Democracy
copyright 1995 Roan Carratu

(From the old Forerunner Website at http://reocities.com/rainforest/andes/3262/index.htm).


A Geodesic Democracy is a structure designed to connect people in a geodesic pattern of small meetings which retains the ability of every individual to make his or her own choices as to what they will or will not support. The geodesic organizational structure removes all positions of delegated power and prevents the corruption caused by the concentration of people's power in the hands of those with the gift of conning others.


It is unlike all previous organizational structures because it is not heirarchical and cannot be made heirarchical. It by-passes the very factors that causes the failure of previous organizational structures, rather than try to force people into making decisions and behaving in reasonable ways in a structure that rewards those who make decisions and behave badly to get others to give up their individual power.


At first glance, it seems complex, but compared to all previous systems, it is quite simple, ...just new and therefore hard to initally grasp.


The geometry, found in all aspects of Nature but especially seen on the molecular level, gives a geonet an incorruptablity not found in any previous structure. For an individual, it means each person is part of two small groups which meets regularily, literially every night of the week, (not weekends), for one hour each group. This is hard to imagine, but the fact is that the planet's ecology and errant human behavior requires more than 15 minutes every four years to govern, so governing the human impact on the planet will take more time than anyone thought.


It will also take a level of self-education not previously considered, where each person will need to learn almost everything to a degree never thought of before. This self-education is intensively integrated into the process of making decisions, and is a group effort. The goal is to make decisions that solve problems rather than create expedient results that just causes more problems, as was the case in all past systems of government. Past systems concentrated decision making in the hands of just one person or a small group, often assisted by 'experts' of approved pundits who thought in rigid ways as to what was possible. This simply resulted in speedy decision making that did not accomplish the goals desired.


The Geodesic Democracy concept (called Geonet in the rest of this document) will seem slower than past systems, but the result of past systems stands as a good example of trying to make speedy decisions on complex problems on all scales of human government behavior.  The Geonet is designed to make comprehensive decisions that really work, rather than expedient decisions by a tiny few who may not know or have experienced enough to make those decisions in a comprehensive, workable, manner.




 

Listen to My BlogTalkRadio Show.

My new BlogTalkRadio show will be on at 2pm Tuesday, April 7, 2009. It's the first show, so it's only going to be a 30 minute autobio tape about my life and why I am an activist. Future shows will be call in and hopefully have guests.


The Zeitgeist Movement

I have long said on my blogs, my elists, and in emails to all kinds of people, that a Transformation was coming, was in the near future, that without it the Human species would destroy itself, either directly through weaponry, or through destroying the environment we rely 100% upon, and now I see the beginnings of that Transformation.

It's never been that I'm specifically 'Anti-' anything. It's been that all the existing systems are so destructive that despite the massive advances of technology and wealth that has been generated by the people of the world, these systems are capable of destroying us all... and will if we don't find better ways to doing things. The existing systems are, in their fantasy beliefs, conclusions, and practices, suicidal. In modern times, they are lumped together in a philosophy called 'Social Darwinism', which is the basis for Capitalism and nationalism and militarism.

I have railed about the misuse of technology, seeing that it all comes from Nature, through innovative use of natural forces, yet the social systems are made up of whole cloth, with no natural forces involved other than symbols which cause abuse of people's energy, attention, and enterprise, for the control of a tiny few. Not to mention the sacrifice of others lives on a scale far greater than the famous genocides in the past.

And it's quickly seen as the result of the perception of 'scarcity', the idea that everything comes from people, that everything is scarce, and that the system elevates the 'superior' people to get what is scarce. Such arrogance is a matter of ignoring everything that points to Nature as the real source of everything. Paying attention to nature reveals the illusion of the belief in scarcity as well as the belief in 'superiority'. We are all really equal, and we all have the same needs and requirements for life, the same curiosities, drive for knowledge, and search for happiness. We are all part of, one with, the same nature.

And the choice is not 'what do we want' anymore... it's what do we HAVE to do, to believe, to act upon, to survive.

The misapplied use of Darwin's theories, that 'Only The Strong Survive' started to fade when people found out that the Dinosaurs, the largest, strongest, creatures in the history of the world, did not survive. They died out because of events they could do nothing whatsoever about. Strength alone is not enough. And conveniently ignored by the Social Darwinist, Darwin himself said it.

“It is not the strongest of the species that survives, nor the most intelligent that survives. It is the one that is the most adaptable to change.” -Charles Darwin

Science and philosophy changed... they realized the true Law of Nature is 'Adapt or die'. Yet the large ancient social systems of competition, which is incredibly wasteful and destructive, did not change. They still think 'superior' people are filtered by the system so the best to rule do the ruling. The Winners win.

And the result is suicidal. The result is a ruling class that thinks the resources are infinite and if they make a profit, anything they do is right.

So along comes:

Zeit⋅geist
   [tsahyt-gahyst] –noun German.
the spirit of the time; general trend of thought or feeling characteristic of a particular period of time.

Now, there is a new dynamic arising...

The Zeitgeist Movement

This movement, or some effort just like it, will usher in the Transformation.

The Goal:

I will list not what it will end, but what it will provide:


  • You will be able to order and use anything you wish without working for it.

  • You will be able to do anything you wish without having to obey someone who pays you money to live on or 'support' your family.

  • You will live in an unpolluted environment that is sustainable.

  • You will have unlimited time with your family, along with whatever help you need to have good relationships with your family.

  • You will be able to travel anywhere in the world easily and comfortably.

  • You will be able to follow your interests and fully commit to creating anything you wish to do.

  • There will be very little fear in your life, and almost no crime in the world. Most crime is caused by the existing systems.

  • There will be no war or terrorism.

  • Without the stress of the existing systems, most people will be nicer and friendlier.

  • You will have a level of freedom that has never existed in the world before.

  • And you can be assured that your children and their children will live with the same security, wealth access, and beauty you have in a clean and sustainable environment of freedom.



And since the first thought you will have reading this is 'this is just another utopian dream', let me remind you that 'utopa' means 'no place'... That is, Humanity loves problems, and will create quite enough to please anyone who like solving them, but they need not be global, or kill people en mass like the problems now.

No, it will not be a fantasy utopia.

The existant cultural belief is that Human Nature is inherently evil, lazy, selfish, and competitive. 'Evil' comes from the dogma of religions that want people to think they are evil until they obey the religion, and also the horrific actions of small numbers of people in insanely slaughtering other people. 'Lazy' comes from slave owners saying their slaves are 'lazy' because they don't work hard enough for their Master's benefit. Selfish comes from those who are fearful of not having enough. The Transformation alleviates that condition. And certainly, the generosity of the people of the world belies that assumption.

'Human Nature' is every way people can be, not some horrific nasty definition that says humans are naturally evil or competitive or selfish. Thanks to the Internet, we know now that the vast majority of people on the planet volunteer some of their time and effort to help others, in large social and small personal ways.

So please, listen to the site's video, although it is long and educational, for the most important aspects of the future are not going to be 'sound bites' and 'cliches' and they will require your self-education, participation, and agreement.


"It is the integrity of each individual human that is in final examination. On personal integrity hangs humanity's fate. You can deceive others, you can deceive your brain-self, but you can't deceive your mind-self — for mind deals only in the discovery of truth and the interrelationship of all truths. The cosmic laws with which mind deals are incorruptible."

"We are called to be architects of the future, not its victims."
-R. Buckminster Fuller


The question is, do you want a better world for your children and grandchildren?

I will leave you with another quote from R. Buckminster Fuller:

"Something hit me very hard once, thinking about what one little man could do. Think of the Queen Mary — the whole ship goes by and then comes the rudder. And there's a tiny thing at the edge of the rudder called a trimtab.
It's a miniature rudder. Just moving the little trim tab builds a low pressure that pulls the rudder around. Takes almost no effort at all. So I said that the little individual can be a trimtab. Society thinks it's going right by you, that it's left you altogether. But if you're doing dynamic things mentally, the fact is that you can just put your foot out like that and the whole big ship of state is going to go.
So I said, call me Trimtab."

It's all very simple...

See, there's this thing called 'binocular vision' which applies to the mind's perspective as well as sight.


Monocular vision is what you have when you look at something with only one eye. Everything looks flat and immobile... It seems to be all one thing. For someone with only one eye to see depth in anything they have to change, move so the background changes in relation to the foreground. Then they can see the depth of it, they can see what is behind the seemingly seamless foreground.


Binocular vision allows two points of view on the object, revealing the background, which allows a 3-D perspective. Then moving strengthens the 3-D view and a greater understanding comes from the sight.

For minds, we each are perspectives of the same Universe, the same One, but we are single mental perspectives, and to get any real understanding we need other people's perspectives. This gives the mind a kindof 3D perspective of reality, allowing us to see the depth of what is really happening. Without that second, third, fourth, etc, perspective, we cannot see any depth, and things not only seem flat and fixed, but with no possibility of real change. Especially we cannot see what is hidden by the foreground, which for the mind, is usually our fear driven illusions produced by our subconscious.

So to see what is really going on, either other perspectives have to be involved, other people, or we have to change ourselves. This is why it is said; 'Change yourself and the world changes.' Changing ourselves gives us more depth, giving us a greater understanding of what happened or is happening by shifting our mental perspective.

Now the Universe, in every atom, energy, every part, is changing all the time. But our minds are virtual... that is, they do not exist in the same way that matter or energy exists... even while made up of matter and energy. It is possible to petrify the mind into a fixed perspective by either constantly reinforcing a mental perspective, or by rejecting all other data coming in, but it is rarely a conscious process.

This petrifaction is caused primarily by fear, often deep unconscious fear, which we are afraid to investigate or become aware of... All fears, especially unconscious fears, are fixed places in our minds loaded with emotional memories, often amplified by imagination, but they are virtual also, which means, like all data, they can be changed easily once we become aware of it.

The process is called 'self-examination', and requires a level of courage that few can come up with unless they make a conscious decision to generate that courage. Courage is when you face something despite the fear, rather than avoiding it, and that barely applies to events outside the mind. It takes far greater courage to self-examine than to run into a cage full of hungry lions to save a child. For some, even thinking about some 'axiomatic' subconscious assumptions produces major anger and a desire for violence, and those people have no idea where that anger comes from.

Humans have a social instinct. Socializing and communicating are ‘hard wired’ into us. This is because being able to create virtual constructions of Universe in our minds has immense survival value. It allows us to perceive larger scales of reality beyond our little personal lives. But for that to work for our benefit, it requires us to self-examine and clean out our subconscious so we can use the ‘binocular’ perspective gained from that socializing and communication to see Universe with depth, without mind distorting fear.

The goal is to become unattached. Becoming unattached recognizes our actual relationship with Universe here and now, that we are ‘standing wave’ patterns of matter, energy, and attention that exist only as patterns made up of the greater whole, in our case, this planet’s ecosystem sustained by this star’s solar energy.
This is not theory or conjecture. This is clean observation of the fact we have to eat, sleep, drink, defecate, urinate, communicate, and share with others. That there is a constant flow of the outside into us and back out of us, by which we exist. This is an observation that does not conflict with any religious or philosophical opinion because without this, we would not exist to have any religious or philosophical opinion.

To experience reality clean of subconscious is to lose all fear. And it’s only perceived through binocular thinking/communicating. We cannot gain that natural perspective only within our own minds, we need each others input to accomplish that vision.

Knowing what we really are shows the value immeasurable in people and the environment. All concepts of ‘superior/inferior’ disappear, and we find that the whole, and every part of the whole, is of greater value than any opinion or anything conceptual. It takes us beyond violence, beyond hate, beyond emotion, beyond theory, and love and beauty beyond imagination is what we find everywhere.

Universe is my back yard:

Well, Sylvia, lol, if existance is part of a dream of some kind, doesn't it mean that existence and the dream are the same thing?

Unity is Two, and the Two are One.

It always takes two discrete self-consistent points of view to understand anything. In Synergetics, you can see the geometry as vectors (lines), vertex (where the lines cross), and facets (planes), or you can see it as trajectories, intersections, and defined spaces. Both are consistent and describe the same thing, but the dynamics of each is different, yet they are both right and necessary for understanding the geometry. Both are required to really understand the whole.

If Universe is thought, though, it's not the thought that streams from the ego, because if it was, there would be no consistency at all between what people see and do, and likely they could not even communicate. Inside out is a subset of outside in. If you take any system, like a glass sphere, for instance, and shine light into it, the light will focus into the center and then come out the other side, the same yet inverted, different, modified by the glass. All systems have energy flowing in and back out, and the energy coming out is modified by the system. Even atoms do this, as well as galaxies, and every system absorbs energy from other systems and emits energy with it's own flavor. (This is why spectrography works, showing us light divided into a rainbow of color components which tell us what elements are most and least abundant in even a far off galaxy.)

And systems are always made up of systems, and are part of larger systems. We are systems which are made up of cellular systems and we are part of the global ecosystem, and one of our characteristic outflows is mind. The Ego is part of our brain, but interacts with our mind, is powered by it, and thoughts are what the ego emits after absorbing our awareness. It's why we can put our awareness out into Universe, or into our ego, separate directions really, inward or outward. The purpose of meditation is to put our awareness outward so completely that our ego fades from lack of our awareness, and perhaps reboots, and if that happens, we know what is outside and what is inside. Otherwise, we tend to think the inside is all that exists, because we put most of our energy into and through our ego.

(Inward meditation is for being aware of what is in the ego and clearing out the chaff from the grain. My sister practices this, and has just discovered outward mediation.)

So it is reasonable to say that atoms are just focused energy, (E=MC^), and therefore everything is energy either flowing or focused, and our awareness is also energy, which means we are completely One with everything else. So Energy is Mind, and Mind is energy, and the whole Universe is One Mind, which includes your Mind and my Mind.

We are Universe being aware of itself.

So you are completely right, of course. But the other way of looking at it is also completely right. Both are necessary for understanding it conceptually. Both conceptual systems are moot if one experiences Universe without an ego. But of course, that can't be described in words, since words inherently divide.

My experience, anyway.

Love ya,

What is Exquisite Synergy?


( http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ExquisiteSynergy)






1.00.00 What is Exquisite Synergy?

Exquisite:
1. of special beauty or charm, or rare and appealing excellence, as a face, a flower, coloring, music, or poetry.
2. extraordinarily fine or admirable; consummate: exquisite weather.
3. intense; acute, or keen, as pleasure or pain.
4. of rare excellence of production or execution, as works of art or workmanship: the exquisite statues of the Renaissance.
5. keenly or delicately sensitive or responsive: an exquisite ear for music; an exquisite sensibility.
6. of particular refinement or elegance, as taste, manners, etc., or persons.
7. carefully sought out, chosen, ascertained, devised, etc.

Synergy:
1. combined action or functioning; synergism.
2. the cooperative action of two or more muscles, nerves, or the like.
3. the cooperative action of two or more stimuli.








1.01.00 ExquisiteSynergy is an organizational framework based upon a geodesic structure.

1.01.01 It is not a hierarchy.


(There are no leaders and followers, no coercion or social pressure. It is
simply a way that people can meet, self-educate, and together make decisions.)


1.01.02 It is a geodesic structure,
that is, a structure which is equal in all it's parts, forming a synergy
that is stronger than the sum of it's parts.







1.02.00 How is that different than any other organizational structure?

1.02.01 ExquisiteSynergy holds people in a state of equality, making it so that those who can persuasively speak and those who are easily intimidated are all held equal, not just by a common individual belief in equality, but by an actual structure where no delegation of responsibility is possible and therefore there is no opportunity for someone to abuse that responsiblity.






1.03.00 What does being a member of ExquisiteSynergy require?

1.03.01 It requires two hours every day, five days a week, in either self-educating and communicating about the Subjects chosen by a group or making decisions together about those Subjects.

1.03.02 It also requires paying an affordable donation to each I-Team, to be used by the donating member for the production or maintenance of whatever that I-Team decides to do or to merge with other I-Teams donations to form larger amounts for larger efforts. More on that later.

(Does that seem like too much time out of your busy weekday? Well, what has going and voting for 15 minutes every 4 years done for you? Has the world, using the existing organizations, gotten better? Is the world, your children's future, the ecology of the planet worth spending enough time to fix it? Think about it!)






1.04.00 What is the Structure?

1.04.01 The first four days of the week are called 'Ongoing Meetings', lasting one hour per I-Team at no specific time.

((Members need not be online at the same time, like an elist.)

1.04.02 Friday evening each week during two different real time Virtual Meetings of one hour each, everyone will meet on the Internet, face to face, using software that will allow each to see and speak to the others.

1.04.03 At that meeting decisions will be made on the subjects, by voting on them.






1.05.01 Each person will be part of two different groups, called I-Teams. ('I' for Icosahedral.)

1.05.02 Each I-Team is made up of 12 people, with two members of each I-team connecting the same two teams.

1.05.03 Everyone will connect two I-Teams, but only one other person in each I-team will connect the same two I-Teams.

1.05.04 This is for redundancy, so if someone is sick, or something needs to be explained clearly, at least one of the two members can explain to the other group what was meant.

1.05.05 This makes each member a conduit between two groups, producing a feedback loop that will help each group keep perspective on Subjects being self-educated about.

(Someday I-Team meetings will occur in 3D worlds, where we will see real time images of each other as avatars, and sit down in virtual rooms or on virtual beaches, and do the business of running the neighborhood, town, region, continent, planet together.)






1.06.00 Each Two weeks in an ExquisiteSynergy form one Cycle.

1.06.01 The first week of a Cycle is called the 'Self-education Week'.

1.06.02 Members will suggest Subjects, or consider Subjects coming in from other groups or undecided Subjects from the last week.

1.06.03 Each member will search and study that subject, posting their findings to others online, and learn as much as they can about the Subject.

1.06.04 The members ask each other questions, find sources, present ideas to the other members.

1.06.05 No decisions are made by the group until Friday night's Virtual Meeting which will occur every Friday night at the same time.

1.06.06 Then the group votes on what Subjects they will make decisions on the next week, the Decision Week.

1.06.07 The number of Subjects is set by the system, while what Subjects are chosen comes only from the vote.

1.06.08 The voting choices are not just 'yes/no' but also have other choices, like 'pospone', or 'pass' to a higher organizational level.

1.06.09 The second week of a Cycle is called the the Decision Week.

1.06.10 The I-team continues to study, but discusses the Subject together online, through list messaging, weighing in with their opinions, backing them up with sources if necessary.

1.06.11 This 'debate' goes on until Friday night's Virtual Meeting, when the Subjects are voted upon.

1.06.12 The results of a 'no' vote drops the Subject although it can be proposed the next Cycle, literally the next week.

1.06.13 The results of a 'pospone' vote passes the Subject on to the next Cycle.

1.06.14 The results of a 'Pass' puts the Subject out to all the I-Teams in the next level of organization.

1.06.15 A 'Yes' vote will make the practical consequences of that Subject the Subject of the next Cycle.

(Exquisite Synergy is about making decisions, not about producing results. So Exquisite Synergy uses another system for actually doing the work, Exquisite Projects, which is explained later.)

1.06.16 A Decision of an I-Team can have varied results.

1.06.17 While there are specific ways in the organization to accomplish things in certain ways on certain scales, the members of the I-Team can do pretty much whatever they want to do about any decision.
(Except ignore it, of course.)

1.06.18 The results of a Decision automatically becomes a Subject for future Cycles, so the I-Team can monitor the progress of the actions taken.

1.06.19 Also, the Decision is put into a library of Decisions for all other I-Teams, so any of them can also monitor the results of the Decision.(This transparency is one of many checks and balances in the organization.)






(Meetings without structure can become shouting matches, arguments, or bog down in indecision. To prevent this, an I-Team meeting has a structure.)

1.07.00 There are four positions in an I-Team. Peacemaker, Recorder, Interface, and Timer.

1.07.01 The four positions rotate every two cycles, so each member will have one month of partipation in any specific position before passing it on to the next member.

1.07.02 The positions are active throughout the cycles, online in list messages or in Virtual Meetings on Friday nights.

1.07.03 Each member in a position has the responsibility of reminding the next member and training them when they take over that position.

1.07.04 The Peacemaker has the task of literially keeping the peace.

1.07.05 If a Subject causes argument or controversy among the members of the I-Team, the Peacemaker can call for ten seconds of silence to promote more reasonable emotions and discussion.

1.07.06 If a Subject cannot be decided upon or about without acromony, the Peacemaker can postpone the Subject until the next week.

1.07.07 The Peacemaker cannot postpone a Subject unless there is acromony in the discussion, even if the Subject has a history of causing acromony.

1.07.08 The Recorder has the task of writing a short summary of a Virtual Meeting for inclusion in the Geodemocratic Journal, which will hold all the summaries of all the I-Team meetings for transparency and historical reasons.

1.07.09 The Summary will not record names or specific words except for overt threats or attempts at intimidation in the I-Team.

1.07.10 Every virtual meeting will be recorded in it's entirity in an unalterable digital video medium and available to all I-Teams for the same reason the summary is recorded.

1.07.11 The Interface has the responsibility to act as facilitator, to promote everyone to participate, to bring out the shy people and keep the conversation going.

1.07.12 The Timer keeps the meetings on schedule by specifically marking the time each subject is to be talked about and ending a subject by calling for a vote at the appropriate time.

1.07.13 The Timer, during the week, creates the schedule for each Subject, because some Subjects will take more time than others.

1.07.14 Because each Virtual meeting is only one hour long, the Timer sets how many subjects can fit into the hour.

1.07.15 Although the Self-Education Virtual meeting decides which Subjects to consider, the Timer sets how many of those can be decided on at that meeting and how many can be voted on during the Decision week Virtual meeting, while the remaining, if there is no time, are postponed to the next Cycle.

1.07.16 The four positions cannot be swapped or postponed except for emergencies, and the Peacekeeper with have the responsibility to find a replacement for that position during the Cycle.

1.07.17 If a position is postponed, then the member who had the emergency will take their normal slot in the sequence when the positions come around again.





1.08.00 The Voting during the Real Time Meetings includes more than a 'Yes' and 'No'. They include several other choices: 'Drop', 'Pass', and 'Continue'.

1.08.01 A Yes decision passes the Subject to the next Cycle, but it will be a designated Subject throughout that Cycle. The Subject is changed from 'Do we try to make a difference in this way?' to 'How do we implement this Decision.' The next Cycle will work on figureing out how to start a Exquisite Project, what will be required to accomplish that goal, and how much money and resources will have to go into it.

1.08.02 For a Yes decision to be carried on, seven out of the twelve members have to vote Yes on the Subject, and no more than two vote Continue.

1.08.03 A No decision ends the consideration as a Subject, either during the Self-Education Real Time Meeting, or During the Decision Real Time Meeting. It cannot be re-considered for at least two Cycles when it can be re-admitted into the Self-Education Meeting as a consideration without further new information.

1.08.04 If seven or more members vote no on a Subject, and less than 3 vote Continue, then the Subject cannot be reconsidered for at least two cycles.

1.08.05 A Drop decision means the Subject cannot be reconsidered unless some important information is introduced, as judged by the members in the four positions during that cycle.

(This is to prevent the fanatical presentation of a Subject which is obviously not going to be accepted by the rest of the members in that I-Team.)

1.08.06 A Pass decision moves the Subject to the next higher organizational level of the Synergy, which is the O-Team, made up of 12 I-Teams. It will be explained in the next section on Larger Scale Decisions.

1.08.07 A Continue decision makes the exact Subject go onto the next Cycle as one of the Subjects of that Cycle. Some Subjects will take more self-education than others, and this will take the pressure off to make a decision based upon not enough education or consideration.

1.08.08 If three members of an I-Team vote continue, the Subject continues to the next Cycle regardless of any other voting result.

(The Exquisite Synergy is not designed to be quick in making decisions. It is designed to be through, to be comprehensive, and that requires time. If the Subject is dealing with a natural disaster or something life and death, either the I-Team can vote yes and create a Exquisite Project to deal with it in the next cycle, Pass it to larger scales of decision making, or if possible, create a Project in advance to meet such challanges in a timely manner. More on that later.)




1.09.00 Larger Scale Decisions (LSDs) occur when a Subject includes a problem which is of a larger scale, which needs more I-Teams working on it and contributing knowledge, opinion, and money to the effort.

1.09.01 LSDs are passed on to a larger scale when an I-Team designates it in their final Decision Meeting with 'Pass' and none or less than three members vote Continue.

1.09.02 When seven members of an I-Team votes 'Pass', the Subject becomes an O-Team Subject, which means it automatically becomes a fixed Subject for the next Cycle for all the member I-Teams.

1.09.03 If seven of the twelve I-Teams in the O-Team vote Pass on an O-Team subject, it then becomes an I-Group Subject, which would include all the I-Teams in the I-Group, and so on to higher and higher organizational structures.

1.09.04 An O-Team, or any larger structure, can also choose to set up a Research Project to find out more information about the Subject and what can be done to fix it.

(While each member retains their equal personal power in the organization, this is the method which would allow them to be part of much larger considerations. It does take time, the larger the organizational structure the more time required, but it will allow enough research, education, and consideration to find comprehensive solutions to problems, rather than expedient solutions which do not actually solve the problem.)

1.09.05 Subjects which are passed to an I-Team are expected to be considered as priorities, above and beyond the Subjects that I-Team might usually consider.

1.09.06 Higher Structure Subjects will have higher priorities, so some Cycles, all the Subjects of an I-Team might come from higher Structures and have higher priority.

1.09.07 Decisions made by I-Teams on LSD Subjects will be transmitted to all the I-Teams involved, with the same basic voting priorities, that is, on the O-Team scale, which has six I-Teams, a majority of the I-Teams have to vote to pass to higher structures, or vote NO or Drop.

1.09.08If two I-Teams vote Continue, then the Subject is continued in all the I-Teams in the O-Team regardless of any other voting results or consideration.


(Site Under construction. More to come.)
