  • Why a Monarch Is Superior

    All I’m saying is that a monarch is superior to any other ‘decider of last resort’ because of natural long-term incentives, and natural pressure to retain position – and that a monarchy, as ‘kin’, within a nation-state, eliminates usurpation by invasion.

  • The Stack

    Nov 17, 2019, 7:55 PM by Luke Weinhagen SOVEREIGNTIST NOMOCRATIC MONARCHY Free men of agency and autonomy participating in reciprocal, voluntary interaction via markets and bound in value by a culture whose aesthetic and function are preserved by those demonstrating greatest merit and protected by a judge of last resort in a system specifically imbued at every level with the power to deny power.

    • KINSHIP CAPITALISM
      Full-accounting preventing individual profit subsidized by the transfer of inter-generational value to out-groups.

    • FAMILIAL POLITIC
      The autonomous family (non-dependent), representing reproductive viability and therefore inter-generational transfer, is the smallest political unit with direct voting power, with non-familied citizens represented by dedicated houses (underclass, unmarried, etc…).

    • CRAFTSMEN ARISTOCRACY
      Leadership meritoriously demonstrating the blending of aesthetics with functionality, with the later never sacrificed for the former and the former never detached from the later.

    • MARKET MONARCH
      Judge of last resort. Rules where limits are otherwise undecidable. Insures decisions via exposure to market risk.

    Our current strategy relies on a mutually beneficial solution for both left and right, so that left and right are united against the predatory status quo.

    Whether left will accept the ‘free cities’ model is an open question. It is a fair trade but we don’t know until we meet.

  • Elective Monarchy vs Heriditary Monarchy

    Nov 18, 2019, 10:13 AM by Daniel Gurpide A hereditary monarchy lends a certain sense of stability to a democratic people, the sense of a family. That is not so under the rule of an elective monarchy such as the American one. Besides, at moments of grave national crises a hereditary monarch, whatever his other weaknesses or shortcomings, may save an entire country from destruction (Italy, Japan).
