Cinta Dengan Kesederhanaan

Aku memandang kalender yang terletak di meja dengan kesal. Sabtu, 30 Maret 2002, hari ulang tahun perkawinan kami yang ketiga. Dan untuk ketiga kalinya pula Aa’ lupa. Ulang tahun pertama, Aa’ lupa karena harus rapat dengan direksi untuk menyelesaikan beberapa masalah keuangan perusahaan. Sebagai Direktur keuangan, Aa’ memang berkewajiban menyelesaikan masalah tersebut. Baiklah, aku maklum. Persoalan saat itu memang lumayan pelik.

Ulang tahun kedua, Aa’ harus keluar kota untuk melakukan presentasi. Kesibukannya membuatnya lupa. Dan setelah minta maaf, waktu aku menyatakan kekesalanku, dengan kalem ia menyahut,” Dik, toh aku sudah membuktikan cintaku sepanjang tahun. Hari itu tidak dirayakan kan tidak apa-apa. Cinta kan tidak butuh upacara…”

Sekarang, pagi-pagi ia sudah pamit ke kantor karena harus menyiapkan beberapa dokumen rapat. Ia pamit saat aku berada di kamar mandi. Aku memang sengaja tidak mengingatkannya tentang ulang tahun perkawinan kami. Aku ingin mengujinya, apakah ia ingat atau tidak kali ini. Nyatanya? Aku menarik napas panjang.

Heran, apa sih susahnya mengingat hari ulang tahun perkawinan sendiri? Aku mendengus kesal. Aa’ memang berbeda dengan aku. Ia kalem dan tidak ekspresif, apalagi romantis. Maka, tidak pernah ada bunga pada momen-momen istimewa atau puisi yang dituliskan di selembar kertas merah muda seperti yang sering kubayangkan saat sebelum aku menikah.

Sedangkan aku, ekspresif dan romantis. Aku selalu memberinya hadiah dengan kata-kata manis setiap hari ulang tahunnya. Aku juga tidak lupa mengucapkan berpuluh kali kata I love you setiap minggu. Mengirim pesan, bahkan puisi lewat sms saat ia keluar kota. Pokoknya, bagiku cinta harus diekspresikan dengan jelas. Karena kejelasan juga bagian dari cinta.

Aku tahu, kalau aku mencintai Aa’, aku harus menerimanya apa adanya. Tetapi, masak sih orang tidak mau berubah dan belajar? Bukankah aku sudah mengajarinya untuk bersikap lebih romantis? Ah, pokoknya aku kesal titik. Dan semua menjadi tidak menyenangkan bagiku. Aku uring-uringan. Aa’ jadi benar-benar menyebalkan di mataku. Aku mulai menghitung-hitung waktu dan perhatian yang diberikannya kepadaku dalam tiga tahun perkawinan kami. Tidak ada akhir minggu yang santai. Jarang sekali kami sempat pergi berdua untuk makan malam di luar. Waktu luang biasanya dihabiskannya untuk tidur sepanjang hari. Jadilah aku manyun sendiri hampir setiap hari minggu dan cuma bisa memandangnya mendengkur dengan manis di tempat tidur.

Rasa kesalku semakin menjadi. Apalagi, hubungan kami seminggu ini memang sedang tidak baik. Kami berdua sama-sama letih. Pekerjaan yang bertumpuk di tempat tugas kami masing-masing membuat kami bertemu di rumah dalam keadaan sama-sama letih dan mudah tersinggung satu sama lain. Jadilah, beberapa kali kami bertengkar minggu ini.

Sebenarnya, hari ini aku sudah mengosongkan semua jadual kegiatanku. Aku ingin berdua saja dengannya hari ini dan melakukan berbagai hal menyenangkan. Mestinya, Sabtu ini ia libur. Tetapi, begitulah Aa’. Sulit sekali baginya meninggalkan pekerjaannya, bahkan pada akhir pekan seperti ini. Mungkin, karena kami belum mempunyai anak. Sehingga ia tidak merasa perlu untuk meluangkan waktu pada akhir pekan seperti ini.

”Hen, kamu yakin mau menerima lamaran A’ Ridwan?” Diah sahabatku menatapku heran. ”Kakakku itu enggak romantis, lho. Tidak seperti suami romantis yang sering kau bayangkan. Dia itu tipe laki-laki serius yang hobinya bekerja keras. Baik sih, soleh, setia… Tapi enggak humoris. Pokoknya, hidup sama dia itu datar. Rutin dan membosankan. Isinya cuma kerja, kerja dan kerja…” Diah menyambung panjang lebar. Aku cuma senyum-senyum saja saat itu. Aa’ memang menanyakan kesediaanku untuk menerima lamaranku lewat Diah.

”Kamu kok gitu, sih? Enggak senang ya kalau aku jadi kakak iparmu?” tanyaku sambil cemberut. Diah tertawa melihatku. ”Yah, yang seperti ini mah tidak akan dilayani. Paling ditinggal pergi sama A’ Ridwan.” Diah tertawa geli. ”Kamu belum tahu kakakku, sih!” Tetapi, apapun kata Diah, aku telah bertekad untuk menerima lamaran Aa’. Aku yakin kami bisa saling menyesuaikan diri. Toh ia laki-laki yang baik. Itu sudah lebih dari cukup buatku.

Minggu-minggu pertama setelah perkawinan kami tidak banyak masalah berarti. Seperti layaknya pengantin baru, Aa’ berusaha romantis. Dan aku senang. Tetapi, semua berakhir saat masa cutinya berakhir. Ia segera berkutat dengan segala kesibukannya, tujuh hari dalam seminggu. Hampir tidak ada waktu yang tersisa untukku. Ceritaku yang antusias sering hanya ditanggapinya dengan ehm, oh, begitu ya… Itupun sambil terkantuk-kantuk memeluk guling. Dan, aku yang telah berjam-jam menunggunya untuk bercerita lantas kehilangan selera untuk melanjutkan cerita.

Begitulah… aku berusaha mengerti dan menerimanya. Tetapi pagi ini, kekesalanku kepadanya benar-benar mencapai puncaknya. Aku izin ke rumah ibu. Kukirim sms singkat kepadanya. Kutunggu. Satu jam kemudian baru kuterima jawabannya. Maaf, aku sedang rapat. Hati-hati. Salam untuk Ibu. Tuh, kan. Lihat. Bahkan ia membutuhkan waktu satu jam untuk membalas smsku. Rapat, presentasi, laporan keuangan, itulah saingan yang merebut perhatian suamiku.

Aku langsung masuk ke bekas kamarku yang sekarang ditempati Riri adikku. Kuhempaskan tubuhku dengan kesal. Aku baru saja akan memejamkan mataku saat samar-samar kudengar Ibu mengetuk pintu. Aku bangkit dengan malas.

”Kenapa Hen? Ada masalah dengan Ridwan?” Ibu membuka percakapan tanpa basa-basi. Aku mengangguk. Ibu memang tidak pernah bisa dibohongi. Ia selalu berhasil menebak dengan jitu.

Walau awalnya tersendat, akhirnya aku bercerita juga kepada Ibu. Mataku berkaca-kaca. Aku menumpahkan kekesalanku kepada Ibu. Ibu tersenyum mendengar ceritaku. Ia mengusap rambutku. ”Hen, mungkin semua ini salah Ibu dan Bapak yang terlalu memanjakan kamu. Sehingga kamu menjadi terganggu dengan sikap suamimu. Cobalah, Hen pikirkan baik-baik. Apa kekurangan Ridwan? Ia suami yang baik. Setia, jujur dan pekerja keras. Ridwan itu tidak pernah kasar sama kamu, rajin ibadah. Ia juga baik dan hormat kepada Ibu dan Bapak. Tidak semua suami seperti dia, Hen. Banyak orang yang dizholimi suaminya. Na’udzubillah!” Kata Ibu.

Aku terdiam. Yah, betul sih apa yang dikatakan Ibu. ”Tapi Bu, dia itu keterlaluan sekali. Masak Ulang tahun perkawinan sendiri tiga kali lupa. Lagi pula, dia itu sama sekali tidak punya waktu buat aku. Aku kan istrinya, bu. Bukan cuma bagian dari perabot rumah tangga yang hanya perlu ditengok sekali-sekali.” Aku masih kesal. Walaupun dalam hati aku membenarkan apa yang diucapkan Ibu.

Ya, selain sifat kurang romantisnya, sebenarnya apa kekurangan Aa’? Hampir tidak ada. Sebenarnya, ia berusaha sekuat tenaga untuk membahagiakanku dengan caranya sendiri. Ia selalu mendorongku untuk menambah ilmu dan memperluas wawasanku. Ia juga selalu menyemangatiku untuk lebih rajin beribadah dan selalu berbaik sangka kepada orang lain. Soal kesetiaan? Tidak diragukan. Diah satu kantor dengannya. Dan ia selalu bercerita denganku bagaimana Aa’ bersikap terhadap rekan-rekan wanitanya di kantor. Aa’ tidak pernah meladeni ajakan Anita yang tidak juga bosan menggoda dan mengajaknya kencan. Padahal kalau mau, dengan penampilannya yang selalu rapi dan cool seperti itu, tidak sulit buatnya menarik perhatian lawan jenis.

”Hen, kalau kamu merasa uring-uringan seperti itu, sebenarnya bukan Ridwan yang bermasalah. Persoalannya hanya satu, kamu kehilangan rasa syukur…” Ibu berkata tenang.

Aku memandang Ibu. Perkataan Ibu benar-benar menohokku. Ya, Ibu benar. Aku kehilangan rasa syukur. Bukankah baru dua minggu yang lalu aku membujuk Ranti, salah seorang sahabatku yang stres karena suaminya berselingkuh dengan wanita lain dan sangat kasar kepadanya? Bukankah aku yang mengajaknya ke dokter untuk mengobati memar yang ada di beberapa bagian tubuhnya karena dipukuli suaminya?

Pelan-pelan, rasa bersalah timbul dalam hatiku. Kalau memang aku ingin menghabiskan waktu dengannya hari ini, mengapa aku tidak mengatakannya jauh-jauh hari agar ia dapat mengatur jadualnya? Bukankah aku bisa mengingatkannya dengan manis bahwa aku ingin pergi dengannya berdua saja hari ini. Mengapa aku tidak mencoba mengatakan kepadanya, bahwa aku ingin ia bersikap lebih romantis? Bahwa aku merasa tersisih karena kesibukannya? Bahwa aku sebenarnya takut tidak lagi dicintai?

Aku segera pamit kepada Ibu. Aku bergegas pulang untuk membereskan rumah dan menyiapkan makan malam yang romantis di rumah. Aku tidak memberitahunya. Aku ingin membuat kejutan untuknya.

Makan malam sudah siap. Aku menyiapkan masakan kegemaran Aa’ lengkap dengan rangkaian mawar merah di meja makan. Jam tujuh malam, Aa’ belum pulang. Aku menunggu dengan sabar. Jam sembilan malam, aku hanya menerima smsnya. Maaf aku terlambat pulang. Tugasku belum selesai. Makanan di meja sudah dingin. Mataku sudah berat, tetapi aku tetap menunggunya di ruang tamu.

Aku terbangun dengan kaget. Ya Allah, aku tertidur. Kulirik jam dinding, jam 11 malam. Aku bangkit. Seikat mawar merah tergeletak di meja. Di sebelahnya, tergeletak kartu ucapan dan kotak perhiasan mungil. Aa’ tertidur pulas di karpet. Ia belum membuka dasi dan kaos kakinya.

Kuambil kartu ucapan itu dan kubuka. Sebait puisi membuatku tersenyum.

Aku ingin mencintaimu dengan sederhana

Lewat kata yang tak sempat disampaikan

Awan kepada air yang menjadikannya tiada

Aku ingin mencintaimu dengan sederhana

Dengan kata yang tak sempat diucapkan

Kayu kepada api yang menjadikannya abu. *

For vieny, welcome to your husband’s heart.

    - HHEPS, a social movement -

    HHEPS (Housing, Healthcare, Education, Public Safety)
    Central Bureau for Information and Statistics
    hheps@ymail.com

    You are welcome with questions, comments, and suggestions to hheps@ymail.com

    GENERAL FRAMEWORK

    The current Government of the USA is quite small, in comparison with the Private Sector. The yearly budget of the Administration is just some $3 Trillion, while the annual Gross Domestic Product controlled by the Private Sector well exceeds $15 Trillion.

    It is therefore evident that in its current structure the Government cannot influence production and distribution of essential goods and services, and cannot ensure adequate employment and human rights to the population.

    The banking, mutual funds, and insurance systems are virtually bankrupt, and are creating an enormous negative burden on the shoulders of the working population.

    The Government has failed, and has demonstrated itself unable or unwilling to provide all Citizens with adequate housing, basic healthcare, dignified eldercare, sufficient education, purposeful childcare, and necessary public safety.

    HHEPS (Housing, Healthcare, Education, Public Safety) is not going to oppose in any manner the Government’s activities, or interfere in any form with the States’ operations. HHEPS is only going to add needed basic services to a population in distress.

    HHEPS plans to create an alternative force in order to ensure that the basic human rights (namely Housing, Healthcare, Education, and Public Safety) are guaranteed to the People of the USA.

    RECONSTRUCTION THROUGH HHEPS

    The national reconstruction effort conducted by HHEPS will have to start with the Housing Industry, and then continue with the Healthcare Industry, the Education Industry, and finally the Public Safety Industry.

    Guaranteeing adequate Housing to each Citizen would require an annual output from HHEPS of $3 trillion ($10,000 per person per year for 300 million people). It would, for instance, give a housing value of $40,000 to a family of four. It would be a gradual but constant effort consisting in taking over the Housing Industry, and guaranteeing jobs in housing development, construction, maintenance, rentals, furniture and appliance industries, utilities, etc., all centralized and regulated.

    The next step of the reconstruction process would be to guarantee adequate Healthcare to each Citizen, which would require an annual output from HHEPS of $3 trillion ($10,000 on average per person per year for 300 million people). It would be a gradual and constant effort, consisting in taking over the Healthcare Industry, and guaranteeing jobs in hospitals, clinics, HMOs, laboratories, pharmacies, pharmaceutical companies, research institutes, health insurance providers, etc., all centralized and regulated. Also the function of guaranteed Eldercare (for ages over 85) would be included in the healthcare industry.

    The reconstruction would then continue with the Education Industry, guaranteeing free Education (including college, university, graduate and post-graduate studies) to each Citizen between ages 5 to 25, and free Childcare, kindergarten, and preschool before that. This Industry would require an annual output ffrom HHEPS of $3 trillion ($30,000 on average per student per year for 100 million youth). It would be a consistent effort gradually taking over all schools, colleges, universities, textbook publishing companies, etc., all centralized and regulated. Also the function of guaranteed Childcare including kindergarten and preschool (for ages 0 to 5) would be included in the Education Industry.

    The reconstruction would then encompass also the Public Safety Industry, which will require a high degree of social maturity. The Public Safety Industry would include all Public Safety and Public Administration Services, including Treasury, police, courts, defense, military installations, border issues, diplomatic corps, security, surveillance, intelligence, postal service, delivery services, fire protection, insurance services, etc., all centralized and regulated.

    Much of the workforce for the Public Safety Industry will come from the Citizens’ Public Service in the Public Forces, a program that would require each Citizen to serve 5 years, not necessarily consecutively, between the ages 25 to 75, in the Public Forces, at a Full Pay of $130,000 per year.

    The Regulated Public Safety Industry will serve 300 million people for an estimated average service value of $13,000 per person per year. The Public Service of all Citizens in the Public Forces for 5 years between ages 25 and 75, totaling 15 Million people in service at any given time, will lead to an annual cost for the Treasury of some $2 trillion (the cost of $130,000 in annual salary for each enrolled Citizen) obtaining a value of service output measured at $3.9 trillion ($260,000 of measured annual value of output generated by each individual enrolled in Public Service).

    FUNDAMENTAL INDUSTRIES

    Each of the four Fundamental Industries (namely Housing, Healthcare, Education, and Public Safety) will employ 11.5 million people at an annual salary of $130,000 per person, corresponding to some $1.5 Trillion dollars per industry per year.

    Every Citizen will receive free Housing (corresponding to an average value $10,000 per person per year), free Healthcare (average value of $10,000 per person per year), free Education between ages 5 to 25 (average value of $30,000 per person per year), and free Public Safety (average value of $13,000 per person per year).

    Also free Childcare services (including kindergarten and pre-school) will be provided to all children under age 5 (average value of $30,000 per child per year - a service administered within the Education Industry), and free Eldercare services will be provided to all individuals over age 85 (at an average value of $30,000 per person per year - a service administered within the Healthcare Industry).

    The services of the Fundamental Industries will not be provided by contractors in the Private Sector, but will be provided directly by the employees of the Fundamental Industries, employed at a Full Pay of $130,000 per employee per year, with an expected output in goods and services valued at $260,000 per employee per year, corresponding therefore to a factor of 2 (annual input $130,000 time a facto of 2 generates therefore an annual output value of $260,000 in goods and services).

    An input-output factor of 2 will limit the exploitation of the workforce, exploitation that currently in the Private Sector reaches dangerously high factor levels of 5, and even 10, leading to work-related stress, alienation, depression, and child-neglect.

    The services of the Fundamental Industries will be provided to all Citizens, who in exchange are going to pay a Flat Income Fee of 40%. No other taxes will be levied. The prospective rate of 40% is actually lower than the current tax rate in the USA, that altogether amounts to a total of some 45% (adding up 25% Federal Taxes, 5% State Taxes, 7.5% Payroll Taxes, and 7.5% Sales Taxes).

    In addition, to ensure a rotation of authority and responsibility in the area of Public Safety, a Public Force will be established, where each Citizen will serve 5 years (not necessarily consecutively) at Full Pay in Public Service, covering the areas of Public Administration, Treasury, Public Representation, Court Services, Civil Defense, Diplomacy, Border Issues, in addition to basic services of Public Safety.

    REPRESENTATION

    Public Representatives will be nominated at the local level (neighborhoods, workplaces, schools, colleges, hospitals, etc.), and in turn those local representatives will nominate Public Representatives to Regional Committees and Caucuses, which in turn nominate further Representatives to Central Councils and National Conferences.

    Each Nominated Representative can be recalled at any time by the same representative body that nominated that Representative.

    A Production, Distribution, and Resource Allocation Plan will determine the required levels of production and distribution of goods and services, and resources will be allocated to the various Industries based on need and availability.

    MONITORED INDUSTRIES

    The Private Sector will comprise the Monitored Industries, which will be controlled in order to ensure that the levels of production and distribution are unfolding in accordance with available resources and the socially relevant and justifiable needs of all consumers.

    All employees of the Monitored Industries of the Private Sector will also receive Full Pay, namely $130,000 per person per year, and their output will also be measured at a limit of a factor of 2 between input and output (an annual $130,000 salary input per employee will lead to an annual $260,000 production output per each employee), so as to prevent exploitation of the workforce.

    The Monitored Industries will receive prioritization levels based on a classification of Productive and Non-Productive Industries, and Essential and Non-Essential Industries, under rules of social relevancy.

    All schemes of Corporations, Shareholders, Limited Liability Companies, Limited Partnerships, Holdings, Trusts, Foundations, etc., limiting in any form or manner the responsibility of the managers, directors, and owners of the Enterprises will be abolished. Only physical individuals and general partners with full personal liability and responsibility will be granted Monitored authority to establish and maintain production and distribution enterprises and to utilize allocated Monitored resources.

    Health insurance activities are placed within the frame of the Regulated Fundamental Industry of Healthcare. All other insurance activities are placed within the frame of the Regulated Fundamental Industry of Public Safety.

    A new currency (“util”, symbol U), separate from the one used for repayment of debts, will be used to measure input and output of salaries and consumption. For instance, for each employee an annual input of U130,000 will correspond to an annual output of production valued at U260,000.

    HHEPS

    HHEPS (Housing, Healthcare, Education, Public Safety) is a broad social movement that provides free adequate Housing, Healthcare, Education, and Public Safety to all Citizens.

    HHEPS emphasizes cooperation over competition, collaboration over aggression, inclusive action over exclusionary circles, planning over reaction.

    HHEPS ensures that all Citizens receive free adequate Housing, including furniture, appliances, and utilities.

    HHEPS ensures that all Citizens receive free adequate Healthcare, including medicine, dental, vision, hearing, preventative care, prenatal care, etc.

    HHEPS ensures that all Citizens receive Childcare, kindergarten, and preschool between ages 0 and 5.

    HHEPS ensures that all Citizens receive full Education between ages 5 and 25, including graduate and post-graduate studies.

    HHEPS ensures that all Citizens receive full adequate employment at Full Pay between ages 25 and 75.

    HHEPS ensure the right of all Citizens to retire at age 75.

    HHEPS ensures that all Citizens receive free adequate Eldercare over age 85.

    HHEPS ensures that all Citizens maintain their right and duty to nominate their representatives to higher bodies of representation, and that those same Representatives can be recalled at any time by the same constituency that nominated them

    HHEPS requires 5 years of Public Service, not necessarily consecutively, in the Public Forces for Public Safety from each Citizen between the ages of 25 to 75, within the frame of the Public Safety Industry.

    HHEPS requires a payment of a Flat Income Fee of 40% on all Full Pay from each Citizen to ensure that all human rights and social obligations are met, within the frame of the Treasury.

    HOUSING

    A Fundamental Industry, the Regulated Housing Industry would include all housing development, construction, maintenance, furniture and appliance industries, utilities, etc., all centralized and regulated.

    A total of 11.5 million people would be employed altogether in the Housing Industry, at a salary of $130,000 per person, at a cost for the Treasury of $1.5 trillion per year (which is actually a much smaller figure than the bailouts). This scenario sets the output-input ratio at two to one: $260,000 value of annual output from each employed person, for $130,000 of annual wages paid to each employee.

    HEALTHCARE

    A Fundamental Industry, the Regulated Healthcare Industry would include all hospitals, clinics, HMOs, laboratories, pharmacies, pharmaceutical companies, research institutes, health insurance providers, etc., all centralized and regulated. Also the function of guaranteed Eldercare is included in the Healthcare Industry.

    So 11.5 million people would be in all employed in the Healthcare Industry, at an annual salary of $130,000 per person, at a cost for the Treasury of $1.5 trillion per year (again, a much smaller figure than the bailouts, which together totaled some $8 trillion). This scenario too sets the output-input ratio at two to one: $260,000 value of annual output per employee for $130,000 of annual salary.

    Within the frame of the Healthcare Industry, the Regulated Eldercare Industry will serve 15 million people (ages over 85) for an average service value of $30,000 per person per year, and will employ 1.7 million people at a salary of $130,000 per person, with a production output value of $260,000 per person, at a total cost for the Treasury of $220 billion.

    EDUCATION

    A Fundamental Industry, the Regulated Education Industry would include all schools, colleges, universities, textbook publishing companies, etc., all centralized and regulated. Also the function of guaranteed Childcare (including kindergarten and preschool) is included in the Education Industry.

    Some 11.5 million people would be employed in the Education Industry, at a salary of $130,000 per person per year, at a total cost for the Treasury of $1.5 trillion per year (a much smaller figure than the total bank/car bailouts). Also this scenario sets the output-input ratio at two to one: $260,000 value of annual measured output per person for $130,000 of annual salary input.

    PUBLIC SAFETY

    A Fundamental Industry, the Regulated Public Safety Industry would include all Public Safety and Public Administration Services, including Treasury, police, courts, defense, military installations, border issues, diplomatic corps, security, surveillance, intelligence, postal service, delivery services, fire protection, insurance services, etc., all centralized and regulated. Much of the workforce for the Public Safety Industry will come from the Citizens’ Public Service in the Public Forces.

    The Regulated Public Safety Industry will serve 300 million people for an estimated average service value of $13,000 per person per year. The Public Service of all Citizens in the Public Forces for 5 years between ages 25 and 75, totaling 15 Million people in service at any given time, will lead to an annual cost for the Treasury of some $2 trillion (the cost of $130,000 in annual salary for each enrolled Citizen) obtaining a value of service output measured at $3.9 trillion ($260,000 of measured value of output generated by each individual enrolled in Public Service).

    MONITORED INDUSTRIES

    Monitored Industries will comprise all industries that provide goods and services not related to the Healthcare Industry, the Education Industry, the Housing Industry, or the Public Safety Industry: the Monitored Industries would include, e. g., food, clothing, distribution, information, entertainment, energy, communication, transportation, infrastructure, export, import, etc.

    The Monitored Industries are not financed by the Treasury, but all the employees of the Monitored Industries are also entitled to receive Full Pay and are protected from exploitative practices (the output-input ratio of two to one would apply also to the Monitored Industries). All the Monitored Industries will be continuously reviewed and audited by the Treasury for compliance with plans, productivity, and compensation.

    THE BUDGET

    The Administration and Treasury of will have an effective budget with a significant positive impact on the People’s living conditions and standard of living, in the pursuit of equality and dignity for all under rules of logic and reason.

    A total financial turnover of some $7 Trillion of the Fundamental Industries, providing all Citizens with adequate Housing, Healthcare, Education, and Public Safety, will create a heavy counterbalance and control over the Monitored Industries, which will keep generating commercial-like products and services for public consumption within the frame and assumptions set by the planned requirements and resources.

    NEXT STEP

    The Government has demonstrated repeatedly its incapacity and ineffectiveness in administering the Public Good.

    It is the paramount interest of the People, on the basis of Public Reason and Social Logic, that the needs for the basic human rights of Housing, Healthcare (including Eldercare), Education (including Childcare), and Public Safety be met. These are issues on which we all can agree.

    It is every Citizen’s interest and mandate to intervene without delays at the local level in order to nominate Representatives to higher representatives bodies and congresses in order to structure a comprehensive plan and implement its directives.

    Get involved and initiate your local HHEPS workshops in your neighborhoods, workplaces, schools, colleges, hospitals, civic centers, church settings, evening meetings, in order to outline local needs, local resources, and local programs of accomplishment.

    Together we can make it happen.
