Access to knowledge and world knowledge

Knowledge of the world is the basic prerequisite for universal education, which is what makes an adequate human existence possible in the first place. Therefore, all world knowledge should be available to everyone in all parts of the world free of charge. However, this is still not the case in the 21st century A.D.[1].

Some sources of knowledge, such as the free encyclopaedia Wikipedia, are only accessible with technical infrastructure, and this is either cost-intensive or only accessible free of charge on loan in special locations, others are subject to a charge and sometimes expensive, such as academic books, whereby libraries are very often accessible free of charge or at minimal cost, but the effort to borrow the desired work is sometimes very time-consuming.

Irrespective of the effort involved in accessing knowledge, the world’s knowledge is fragmented, difficult to search and filter and at the same time incomplete, sometimes erratic and some areas cannot be understood without sufficient prior knowledge.

In order to educate responsible citizens, it is essential to make all knowledge accessible to everyone as cost-effectively as possible. Otherwise, knowledge is reserved for a privileged class that can use it to abuse power.

Knowledge must be freely accessible, free of charge and freely expandable, e.g. under the free document license

Regulatory frenzy and suffocating bureaucracy

Order is half the battle, as the saying goes. Organization is the whole of life, is the doctrine of current politics.

  • Regulatory frenzy
  • Overregulation
  • Minor case specifications
  • Individual justice
  • Sanction allocation

All this and much more is an active part of the bureaucracy of a united Europe. If Europe were actually united as a result, this would be a small price to pay. Only the price is paid without receiving anything in return.

This does not make Europe more united, more understanding or even more united. It is only the rules that apply in all EU states, which the countries must adhere to, that provide a similar, sometimes meaningless, legal framework. But that doesn’t make for tolerant and positive coexistence.

Each country suffers individually from the excessive bureaucratic structures that apply to all of them. This shows once again that “more of the same” does not necessarily lead to a solution to the problem, and is in fact the problem.

Structures should be made for the people and simplify and improve cooperation and be designed in a way that benefits the majority. Fundamental structural reforms are needed here, even a new beginning, so that the achievements of the modern world can be used safely and helpfully.

Individual justice is an illusion whose absence must not lead to arbitrariness, but there must be ways that are understandable, acceptable and practicable for all members of society and yet are not “just” for everyone.




The agony of the Bundestag election – or why no party is electable

Dwindling public support for democracy and our social system is often blamed on the population itself. The fact that this could also be due to the performance of the people’s representatives, the party structures and the basic structure of our current democracy is often not discussed.

Unfortunately, it is becoming increasingly difficult for voters who are open to democracy to find a meaningful choice. There are various reasons for this:

  • No party has existed for a long time.
    Visions of the future, strategies and political foresight
  • Repeating like a prayer wheel that there are no alternatives leads to
    Radical loss of confidence
  • Marginal differences between the party programs lead to the
    Arbitrariness and interchangeability
  • Lack of performance targets and sanctions in the political process
    implementation make a mockery of the current democratic system

It makes little sense to choose something that does not promise a solution.

Having to elect representatives who constantly develop sanctions for the population, but who themselves operate in a sanction-free space, erodes basic trust in the current political system. As a politician of any party stature, only ever making demands of civil society without ever delivering will not lead to anything good in the long term.

A future-proof reform of our entire social structure
including the current political establishment, equipped for the 21st century.
This is becoming increasingly important and urgent.
