[[File:Vistulo-Hominēsist_Liberalism.png]] '''Vistulism''' is a economically centre to centre-right (or more right, idrk where to put it), socially centre-left, meritocratic political ideology describing the views of [[User:MaritimeVistula]].<br>
Vistulism is an economically [[File:CLeft.png]] centre-left to [[File:Leftunity.png]] left-wing ideology. It now believes that socialism is inherently meritocratic, because it wishes to give everybody an equal chance in life and that socialism is the most reasonable means of making equality of opportunity happen.
<br>
 
It strongly believes in the disestablishment of [[File:Klep.png]] "crony capitalism", capitalism which favors [[File:Plutocrat.png]] conserving class boundaries, [[File:Klep.png]] kleptocracy and [[File:Arist.png]] helping those who are "government favorites" and instead wishes for an ideal of capitalism which is more [[File:Merit.png]] meritocratic and [[File:Prog.png]] inclusive, which it likes to call "orthodox capitalism", despite that not being orthodox at all <s>(who cares, just rewrite history lol)</s>.<br><br>
 
 
[[File:Vistulo-Hominēsist_Liberalism.png]] '''Vistulism''' takes many of it's ideas from [[File:Merit.png]] [[Meritocracy]], believing that wealth can be considered "illegitimate" if you haven't done anything to properly earn it. For example, large families which trace themselves back to centuries ago and who didn't work for any of their wealth but instead got it through fancy ass titles (e.g. the entire leadership of the [[File:BoJo.png]] UK Conservative Party.) Unlike Meritocracy however, it believes that leaders shouldn't be assigned based on merit but instead [[File:Dem.png]] popular vote, since getting the popular vote is itself a form of hard work (unless your in a motherfucking two-party system where you're pretty much just flipping a blooming coin).<br><br>
 
Despite being quite right-leaning, [[File:Vistulo-Hominēsist_Liberalism.png]] '''Vistulism''' still likes ideas from [[File:Soc-h.png]] [[Socialism]], believing that socialism may even be possible as an intermission stage to spread out the wealth until we can let loose actual meritocracy where all have an equal chance. Vistula also is a liker of Jeremy Corbyn because of his good moral values and genuine advocacy for helping the people.

===Why we must rid ourselves of FPTP===
We need to bid farewell to the outdated First Past the Post (FPTP) system and instead use a a more just and balanced electoral system such as the Single Transferable Vote (STV).
FPTP's notorious spoiler effect has led to countless situations where third-party candidates, even if they have goals that resonate with a significant portion of the population, end up splitting the vote and inadvertently aiding the victory of a candidate who does not represent the majority. This is far from fair, and it undermines the core democratic principle of representation, which is slowly drifting away in our modern society.
Minority rule is another flaw in the FPTP system. It allows a candidate to win without securing the majority of votes, essentially letting a minority dictate the outcome. Such a setup not only means unequal representation but can also lead to policies that do not reflect the true will of the people. '''This needs to stop as it is branding any democratic state as a mere citizen oligarchy.'''

Vistulism is an economically centre-left to left-wing ideology. It now believes that socialism is inherently meritocratic, because it wishes to give everybody an equal chance in life and that socialism is the most reasonable means of making equality of opportunity happen.

Theory

Taxes

Individual Punitive Wealth Tax

Vistulism believes in the implementation of a Individual Punitive Wealth Tax (ima call that IPW Tax from now on because I don't wanna write that all out) on earnings above £1 billion. This is because £1 billion is an unreasonably high amount of money and it would be better to invest it on helping others than on helping one man go on a trip through space.

It believes that through these taxes that soon we will be able to help use these investments to help stop things like cancer, diabetes and birth defects. These are of course more important than some random billionaire getting a golden yacht that won't even drive because it's made out of gold.

Potency Tax

A sad reality is appearing where the youth are becoming caught in by bad habits such as vaping. This needs to stop. I propose a potency tax, which has a rate going like an inversed bell curve across age, meaning that whilst you are young or old, the tax rate is high, but during those stages of your life where it doesn't really matter too much, it's softer and more reasonable.

Corporate Addictive Substances Tax

I want to tax companies for using nicotine or other addictive substances inside of their products. This is because addictive substances often come with bad side affects and hurt people's mental state.

Addictive Substances Limit

Alongside the tax, I also wish to limit the amount of addictive substances that can be put in a product to 10mg/ml instead of the usual 20mg/ml. Over the years, this should be brought down to 7.5mg/ml so soon we can start to truely phase out addiction.
