Dissolving the States would allow for interesting and varied cultures to emerge; #architecture and #housing that reflect what #local residents appreciate rather than that of a State that is easily corrupted by a few #politicalDonations from the likes of the #PropertyCouncil (a highly active #SuperPac/lobby group for #realEstate moguls in Australia).
The big risk of going local is from #largeCorporations that may seek to use their wealth to overwhelm Local Governments, but…

173 followers · 13510 posts · Server activism.openworlds.info(2/2)… we disolved State Govts entirely?
Eg. the UK don't have state govts.
Could #localCouncils manage #townPlanning as a #federation.
StateGovt functions can likely be replaced by Committees of a greater number of national MPs.
State Govt have become corrupted, engaging in #rentSeeking and known to take #politicalDonations from #realEstate and #propertyDeveloper groups through #SuperPac's like the #PropertyCouncil.
What do you think? Are State Govts replaceable?

Wow, they used people of Asian decent there too. We almost thought it would be localised and they would talk about wealthy Californians wanting a second summer home or some crap like that. They are inventive like that.
In Australia we have a seedy interestGroup called the #PropertyCouncil (non-govt #councils are suspicious) and they put out daily #pressReleases in local #MurdochRags to spruik the #realEstate market.

The trick is to not produce vast #inequalities.
Real #democracy can work. Its just persistently undermined by the #legacyMedia and well-lubricated #publicRelations, #thinkTanks and #lobbyists, with connections the #centralBanks and #merchantBanks.
There was a time when these people were killed, in #Russia and #France, if memory serves. We are not properly equipped to handle the problem today.

How does it feel to simply be 'locked up'?

They want govt support.
The places they built are awful — they should probably go to prison as #environmentalVandals to pay off the #debt.

Many ppl do not know who they are paying #economicRents too, and importantly why.
It may as well be #aMafia.
There are a host of #grifters that just need to '#stop', and we mean that in many senses of the word — its not even funny.
Most are having their #IQ lowered now. The #magnaCarta or even just understanding #local affairs is getting out of reach.

Start with the Property Council heads.
These #spruikers can be found in #MurdochRags and other #realEstate pumping corporateMedia outlets over the 15 years prior to #COVID – fueling this crisis.

Sadly, these terrible collapses like the #MiamiTower are just a tip of the iceberg.
We wrote something recently on another device and will get it out in the days ahead.
In #Australia we've been struggling with our own #propertyDeveloper and #privateEquity craze since #Sydney2000, and yes, a lot of dodgy #construction.
The #realEstate and #propertyCouncil have been aggressively #lobbying #selfRegulation for as long as we can remember too.

Because #Failbook does that now and they do a better job than you ever could.
Don't let the #PropertyCouncil, big #construction and the other crime syndicates you propped up hit you on the way out.

Add great #architecture to that list.
The #profitMotive, including the #revolvingDoor, #privatisation (insofar as #publicHousing) and #rentseeking behaviour in #realEstate results in awful architecture.

#RealProgressives have been decrying the ills of #corruptionFueled, #greedDriven #overdevelopment and #overpopulation.
While #vestedInterests in #realEstate, #construction, captured #academia and the #PropertyCouncil were selling ideas of "#urban #regeneration" and so-called #smartCities, real #environmentalists and were pointing to real #publicHealth and safety risks and we're being completely ignored.
But #bailout #wallstreet, lol.

We liked your #OkBoomer show but a few things.
In #Australia, the #Boomers don't need #Millenials to buy their #overpriced #homes and #investments, that's what extreme levels of #immigration are for (see #PropertyCouncil and other seedy lobby groups with tentacles at #MurdochMedia)
Given that you are a supporter of #openSource you may wish to consider not plugging #Twitter and transitioning to the #Fediverse. :)

Yes, #extortion and #rentSeeking are abhorrent. We need to end professional #lobbying by jailing those involved as criminals. In Russia for a time they were apparently given the #DeathPenalty!
Lobbying in the #USA is said to have shot up in the 1970s and has only risen since. In #Australia today, the dodgy #PropertyCouncil, #BusinessCouncil, #MigrationCouncil and even some #unions and #universities lobby for irresponsibly high immigration levels to maintain the #speculation #ponzi.
