Anti Greed Vaccinations !

Only a few weeks back, I wrote about ISIS Anti virus and wrote about science to scan the profile of people for their virtues and values.

Now, there is an article in Harvard Business Review ( http://hbswk.hbs.edu/item/7830.html )

"How Hormones Foretell Whether People Will Cheat"

This is what I have been saying, whether it is extra testosterone or extra chromosomes or there would be other markers, which can clearly indicate the abnormality or skewed thinking of a person. It is about time, we start taking these subject seriously and treating such people with neutralizers.

The people who do wrong sometimes themselves do not understand, why they do wrong and why their behavior is anti social. They need medical attention. Unfortunately we are still not ready to address such issues till people go and create a big black hole for all of us.

Nevertheless, if you come across any such people, best is to avoid them at the first place or direct them to medical assistance .

Obama Corruption Speech And The Corrupted World

Each right minded person tries to avoid corruption, yet the malice is seen across the world. No matter it is an organization as rich as FIFA or as poor as the local cop or it is doping in the athletic world or match fixing or tax fixing.

Corruption within the Governance is part and parcel of the system since time immemorial.  As long as there will be greed within human beings, corruption will remain endemic.

But after too much of thinking, I realized that it was basically the system itself, which was responsible for the corruption and human beings were the exploiters. The more the system became transparent and mechanized, the less was there an opportunity of corruption.

Who designs the systems. The Law makers. Who puts the lawmakers in place. We the public. Unless, we stand up united and control the system to be open, clean and transparent, the exploiters will use each of the opportunity to gain. Use of Online systems has massively reduced corruption.

All Governance and systems have to be on Auto Correction mode.  Rights of Individuals at each stage have to be clearly defined at each point of control. If Governance is about checks and balances, then checks are very well defined, but the balance is always left to the individuals struggle for survival.  This is not called governance, but practically autocracy.

An Auto Correction Mode has to be part of one and every system, where individuals mistakes are stopped and possible correction options are offered instantly. The world is certainly divided between good , bad and  evil. One does need filters at each point, but the way the filtration works is to use the system to intimidate the good and extort benefits . The bad and evil already know their way out and are habitual offenders. They manipulate  and milk the system to the core . It is only the decent , who have to pay a price.

Corruption comes, when one is obstructed for any reason. Whether for want of a document or for speeding up a process or getting a biz license or even  getting his payment or similar acts.  Than there is corruption in getting contracts, favors, out of way benefits etc etc.

For the documents, this is the favorite of all the Governments. Where massive corruption takes place. This is where the auto correction system has to work. If the applicable document is not there with an individual or an organization, the work can still never be stopped. The work is an output , which is adding to the economic value of the country and to the individual.  Hence the assigning authority will still issue the document instantly with some penalties and give effective time to complete the process.  As long as the matter is not a security risk or a massive social risk problem, the issues related to any document are only clerical to any government. Close the obstruction and corruption vanishes. Create the obstruction and corruption flourishes.

One of the biggest hassles for any biz in any country is the clarity of laws. Unless and until well defined templates are offered to the industry, the ambiguities of laws will always lead to corrupt practices.  The economic order is changing, more and more people want to be entrepreneurs and the Govt has to stand up and support it.

In matters of controls, the government has to have a dual function . First support the individual or organization in reaching a critical mass. Only after that the controls can be managed. Eg Tax system for a micro or small company. This should be zero for the first 3 years and small percentage after that.  This allows the individual to reach a critical mass as against, fighting the tax system from the first day, when he or she starts his company.  Further, till it reaches a critical mass, each arm of the government will stand up and support the organization or individual to realize its potential. At this time, each arm of the government is there to obstruct the organization , no sooner it is incubated.

In matters of Human Rights it is still a long way to go . The first auto correction is compulsory video recording of any inspection by government officer or police questioning. Any attempts of intimidation and threats and unbalanced code of conduct should lead to instant suspension of such a authority. The abuse of power for extortion is a general practice and if one complaints about it to the superior, generally the superior acts as a part of the same gang. However, if the complaint redressal was with independent judicial authorities, the system works on auto correction mode.

I vividly recall, how an Indian lady diplomat was taken in custody in US and strip searched , because she was paying lower than the minimum wages to her domestic servant, whom she brought from India under some visa rules. Now, this is a clear case of Human rights violation both by the diplomat and also the Police.  An auto correction mode would have simply asked the lady to come and discuss the subject with the authorities and allowed her the correct the situation. It did not warrant such high handedness.  As for diplomat paying lower wages , the employee can well quit on his own or request for fairness and only if the request is turned down, he can then move to redress it with the authorities.
But the ways, the law enforcement works is not on auto correction. Further at each stage, the authorities need to advise the person of his legal rights. If the legal rights are not advised clearly , the handling officer should be removed from his job. Mind, we are a democratic world. It is us, who pays for the salaries and budgets of the governments, not the other way round.

In short, at each and every system of the government, there should be clear open and transparent handling . And in case, there is still an issue, one has with the governance, the rights of individuals have to be well advised on the website. The complaints of abuse of power and corruption should be not to the same department , but to a department, which is handled directly by judiciary or public at large.

Above all the systems should be accelerating and not obstructing any process. Any obstruction by any officer should lead to penalties . This will be auto correction of highest order. After that we will see, everything working in proper order and fast pace.
