Hit the comment limit, so continuing on:

13. Complete separation of church and state. The clergy of all denominations shall only be paid by their own voluntary congregations.

Yes, please. I’m not willing to go whole hog hunting down and persecuting priests, as has happened in some revolutions. But, religion should be something people keep to themselves.

14. Limitation of inheritance.

This would be a question of what limits and how they are calculated and imposed. Something like a logarithmic tax might be a good way to set this up, such that very high values become very highly taxed. But, I do feel that parents have a legitimate interest passing down their earnings to their children.

15. Introduction of strongly progressive taxes and abolition of taxes on consumption.

In general, this sound great. The problem is, it’s way to general of a statement to really discuss. The devil is always in the details. For example, “consumption taxes” sound bad, but does that cover luxury taxes? I’m all for a taxing yachts at obscene rates. Granted, I am also generally against “sin taxes” which are used to punish people for whatever “sin” it’s currently en vogue to hate. So, maybe yes?

16. Establishment of national workshops. The state shall guarantee the livelihood of all workers and provide for those unable to work.

Arbeit macht… Oh,wait that’s kinda unfair. But, this sounds a lot like State run labor camps. Ultimately, this becomes a problem with a central command economy, who gets to choose the job you do? Unless we’re talking about a magical “post singularity, AI robots do all the hard work” society, we’re going to need people to do the less desirable jobs. I personally tend towards a system of Universal Basic Income providing enough money for a person to live on, with work being something you do because you want more than the basics and/or you just have a passion. This would also mean that the les desirable jobs would come with higher wages.

I think this point may have also been influenced by the times. With the move to industrialization, there seemed to be a need for large factories which employed hundreds of people. From that perspective, this may seem to make more sense. I just think it’s leaning a bit too hard into the central command economy and might result in a lot of Animal Farm style problems.

17. Universal free education of the people.

And healthcare. But this list pre-dates modern healthcare or I suspect it would have been there. History has really proven the value of universal education and not having it is now seen as a very bad idea.

As I said above, it’s a mixed bag. I think there are some good ideas in this, but I also think it’s very much an idealized society and would face problems with corruption and issue in implementation. I think it’s telling that, when the early USSR tried to implement a government based on these ideals, things went sideways. And later the People’s Republic of China faced similar issues. At the same time, much of Western Europe has built off these ideas and created a much more equitable society and we can see the positive benefits in strong social programs.
