The conservative, anti-democratic position against Common Rule is maintained on an ageless belief, always promoted by the monarchic and dynastic Warlords, that the Masses are incapable of organising themselves into Balanced, Self-Sustaining Economic Communities and Self-Governing Democracy.
That belief goes back to beyond ancient-ancient Egypt, and is still strong in the King James mindset of John Howard and co., today.
Upto 3-and-4 centuries ago, that assessment was closer to correct, for the basic "3-Rs" were not yet widespread and are necessary for a Local Economy to trade and partake of any larger, regional and national-International trade.
Thanks to Left-wing groups of the last 400 years, the "3-Rs" have spread well through Working-class Peoples in the 1st and 3rd world regions, empowering them tremendously.
Thanks FROM all of Them, myself included, to Old Guttenburg, and his mates.
The Offer of a Just Method of Governmentation via incorruptible Valuation and Collection of Land Rent, PLUS a Genuine Opportunity to Contribute to the Just Human Social Politico-Economic World, without having to have a string of letters after one's name, gives Inspiration to the Broken, to the Bitter, and as easily to the guilt-ridden wealthy.
There IS an Answer! ("Land Rent for Government Revenue" is known in all Nations now.)
Even the slowest can Imbibe and Quaff in that "Realisation".

Enabling Local Co-op Communities to interact with larger business networks.
Where needed, while NOT inviting open slather on International trade, for most, in my view, is for it's own ruthless sake and crass-iconism, but where trade is ethically valid, even few of the disabled are excluded from the earning of their own wealth, and their choice of an Ethical, Sustainable and Happy Life.
(Business models for engaging with large-again, upto international business, models of economy and accountability for Local Co-operative Communities, exist in those similar to what grew out of the Melbourne inner suburban Councils collectivizing in the early 1990s, for huge savings in bulk-buying, by the instant weight of a group of large [spending] organisations - economies-of-scale.)
All the records to now, show an unavoidable need for centralised government.
But government is about accountability as much as provision "for the Good of All", and accountants and accuracy through smaller-scales like the "Extended Family" have been impossibly scarce 'til very recently. Bringing everyone up-to-speed so we, even the Forgotten, are Educated and emancipated enough to run our own patch - beit a "Trash-Town" in the slums of Rio or Dehli, a Local street Community, Community Multiple Occupancy, Local Council or Whole Nation, is what we and the Christian beomith crusaders have been tasked with for 2000 years.
Too often the barrier to small "unconventional" business enterprises, like the "Collectives" of People who live in Trash-Town slums being barred from even meagre financing for legitimate projects, is the archaic 'centralised' governments and their covens of centralised power - the theo-aristocracy.
No-one gets into the barrel of gold called 'international trade' without some sacrifice - and that is usually the representative's Love and Devotion to their own Community and People.
In my opinion, Local Communities are Wise to avoid international trade, for it is a vortex NOT designed for you to 'win' from. The richer it makes you, the deeper into the whirlpool you step.
But it is sometimes practical and healthy. Only however, when one or a Community seeks to satisfy "needs" not satisfied locally.
Otherwise trade and materialistic imbalances occur, which threaten local-local trade and social relationship.
Trinketry grows and international trade peaks when only freighting cheap, trivial, crass products and 'gene-weakening luxuries'. All marketed as much by those, or mates of those who profit most from the trade and transportation - shareholders in global shipping, freight, transport corporations.
Middle-men 99% of them.
Shareholders in-no-small-proportion also, in OH! media, and mining, weapons, casinos and movies.... etc.
Because of the fundamental rort of land speculation etc., these 'middlemen' phenomena have grown to come to tax every local Community on the planet, of 50% to 70% of their legitimate earnings, and of their Spiritual and Community Wealth.
This is all part of the War Perpetual, between the empowered individual ego versus the Common Weal of the Whole Community.
Between Satan-the-selfish-materialist and God-the-Whole-Human-Community.
Satan-the-selfish-materialist would have all of us consumed in calculating our income and tax and profit-margins - small business forms, BAS forms, GST forms, ABN forms - all to avoid giving us the time to Learn and Think and Collectivate on Land Rent and the Philosophy of Harmonious Living.
God-the-Whole-Human-Community on the contrary, would Liberate us from specious centralisation, empowering us through Factual and Complete Education, and Equitable Access to Arable Local Land and Local Control, to the point of a larger "Committee of Councillors" sufficiently empowered to directly direct the Prime Minister as to how he governs the nation.
If we need a PM at all?
The same stigma, that Workers cannot organise themselves Honestly, played as an ancient, and NOW, utterly untrue, pro-establishment rumour against the ALP on October 9th 2004 in Australia's federal election.
The ruthless and conscience-free Liberal/Nationals pulled-out all stops - "Greens are Communists!", and less than subtle one-punch-liners lying about Unions and Labor Et Al.
Not to mention fear-mongering about 'terrorism'.
Local, Working Class, and the Forgotten, given a Good Law, which applies across the nation and across the planet, "for the Good of All", better-than-ever enabling them to function, wheel-and-deal, and grow on the assured security of Land Rent, can and will Happily grasp the concept(s) of how to live Life once free of the age-old personal and social burdens - the economic chains of inequitable distribution of access to Land.

An Agrarian Community Life is a state of mind far indeed from the most recent invention of the western materialist consumer life.
An adjustment of how one views "Life", if moving closer to an Wholistic - even religious of an Eastern Manner, Life, catapults one closer if-not-into states of quite-simply-acquired Happiness - "Hmmm?! Think I'll just sit on the veranda a little longer..."
Happiness IS! Bad economic management at government levels, is what puts 'steel walls' between us and the Beautiful views from the verandas.
Agrarianism could be, could occupy 70% of the increased population (through immigration from the 3rd world), working on local sustainability and enterprise models, and done Collectively, Co-operatively, could give everyone 30%-to-70% more time - to Relax - even to the point of Dwelling in the Bliss of the Silent Mind.
Some say "That's True Peace!"
But there's lots of Work for everyone to do - Justice-type-Work mainly, including forgiving ourselves and our ancestors, for us All to reach that 'stage'.
AUM.............. I Hope?
