    @fcSolar These are good additions to the existing constitution.

    One thing I would like to add in terms of IP and Patent law is that you are free to reproduce Patented and otherwise protected physical items to any end, provided you make no profit in doing so.

    This, coupled with 3D printing and future manufacturing tech, creates the foundation for a library/sharing/anarchic economy

      How would you prevent a company with gains from other means coming in and destroying a competitor only to start charging for their version after the other company goes under?

        Corporations should honestly be banned outright. There’s no actual reason to have them. Have workers’ guilds do collective labor if it’s that damn important, and ban the guilds from doing any of the evil shit corporations do.

        That’s just my opinion. I have a whole-ass treatise about what I’d put in a constitution and I might share it in the thread if people want to hear it.

          Power doesn’t disappear. If it doesn’t exist in corporate form it’ll exist in political form.
