After pondering whether or not an idiot existed and was a direct threat to society, I decided that in an eco-community which approves worker cooperative business and worker self-management we're going to need a cooperative rehabilitation and mental health counseling program anyhow. When one in the community is reported enough and has enough demarits one will need to complete a rehabilitation program which includes mental health counseling and have the options to leave, stay and participate in the program, or prove corruption. If they choose to stay in the community they will need to participate in a rehabilitation program which includes mental health counseling. The counselors will not need to be in positions of authority because the majority vote will decide how they interact with people. The only authority necessary in the community is the authority of the majority vote. If the community approves of an egalitarian form of shamanism we can also have people use their psychic abilities to serve the community in weeding out potential threats by offering potential suspects counseling before they get demarits and we can put it on record that they sought help. Egalitarian Shamanism is not a religion. It's an art people practice so they can serve as a bridge between the physical part of the world and the spiritual part of the world. For a while I felt a bit skeptical about shamanism but I am studing shamanism now and learning that there is more to reality than I was told there is. The shaman is similar to the mental health counselor. According to the theoary I support there doesn't need to be any position of authority. The shaman can be a counselor to the community but cannot be in a position of authority or corruption may be ensured. I think that the appointment of priests and chiefs was where we went wrong and alcoholism amplified those mistakes. If the community votes atheism in as the main belief then we can prohibit theistic religions and avoid having religious struggles. We can have a common belief in oneness which is scientifically proven and voted on. In my view, if it's something that's proven then it doesn't count as a religious belief. It's a socially accepted fact and I think the problem is that we live in a failed melting pot systme which doesn't require compulsory mental health counseling. It's my belief that organized religion and hierarchy are key elements in the suffering our species has endured. Thus, in my eco-community I plan to have religion and hierarchy prohibited in the community constitution. Drug abuse will also need to be prohibited. Drugs will be permitted as they are not the problem but drug abuse must be prohibited in order to establish a stable union. Okay, I think I've solved the potential threat of a mental illness epidemic. Currently we have a mental illness epidemic in America. I prefer that we organize into eco-communities which support worker cooperative initiative and we occupy through economic strategy to reroute the wealth and power away from corrupt organizations into the hands of the workers. Everything I've said and shall say is subject to evolution. I hope you find wellness. Namaste!
