Money Management

At DirectDemocracyS, we invest approximately 33% of our total funds in security measures and technology. We invest 33% to reward our best users, based on accumulated points, who demonstrate concrete activities and impeccable behavior. We invest 33% in continental, national, and local phases, and to develop our ideas and projects, always collectively. We give 1% to those who conceived and created all of this from the beginning, and to our groups of guaranteed members, who deserve our recognition in both a tangible and symbolic way.

These fundamental rules concern the use of the money that enters our system through annual dues, private donations, advertising contracts, and all other income, with the exception of electoral reimbursements or state contributions to political organizations and political parties in countries where public funding is provided for political forces.

Everything goes in at the international level, and is managed by our special administration groups, financial income control management subgroups, our specialist groups, and many other involved groups, and is verified by all the special groups.

All our official members can join all groups, all categories, all subgroups, all special groups, and, based on their expertise, all specialist groups. What does this mean in concrete terms? That anyone who is an official member can collectively manage, review, and decide how our funds will be spent, taking into account the initial fundamental rules.

First, we want to explain why we use 1% of all our revenue to reward, reward, and thank the first five people who had the idea to create DirectDemocracyS, and the subsequent 277 official members, representing many populations, from virtually every country in the world, who wrote much of our fundamental rules, and all subsequent official members who have been welcomed and integrated into our guarantor groups. The reason, decided and unanimously voted on, based on a proposal from a new member, is based on logic, common sense, truth, research, reality, and mutual respect. It's simple: we know how to reward merit, and gratitude is a fundamental value for anyone who joins us. It's a bit like building statues for important people, or celebrating the founders of anything. In our system, it seemed right to us to continually and concretely thank those who had the crazy idea of creating a system like DirectDemocracyS from scratch, but also to fund our special group of guarantors, which is very important to all of us. We will discuss this group of men and women in dedicated articles, who have worked for many years, in their spare time, hard and complicated, in the early stages of our system. The guarantors are those who keep us from forgetting why we were born, where we want to go, and how we must get there. They are our identity and help us not to lose our bearings. That many human beings don't understand why we give 1% to this special group seems almost normal to us. Just look at how they treat an athlete who, after winning everything, loses a few competitions. They don't continually and concretely thank us for the joys and achievements of the past, but they quickly forget about anyone. But it has happened to us that many Artificial Intelligences not only didn't understand the feeling of gratitude, but that while appreciating our publicity, they advised us not to say it publicly, and not to repeat it often, because not everyone would understand. Dear friends, as you can see, we say it, and if necessary, we will repeat it every time: we know how to say thank you, and we demonstrate it. If with a few users it means little money, with many users it could be significant sums. If the entire world's population were to unite, these 283 (282 + 1 recently integrated and added) members of our very important special group would share a nice nest egg. Many of them have already said they will divide the funds and concretely help those among them most in need, and if the sums are very substantial, they will help families with people in difficulty, and create jobs and scholarships. So you can criticize, but you have no right to judge us. We take full responsibility for everything we decide, unlike many others.

We use 33% for all our security measures and technology investments, ensuring our system is always technically and physically protected. This is always based on projects managed by various groups, with the assistance of specialist groups, and with the oversight and authorization of all special groups.

We use the 33% to reward our best users and internal groups, based on points accumulated individually and across groups, with very detailed implementation rules. The same rules apply, along with the hard work of user evaluation groups, point attribution and verification groups, and groups to assign value to accumulated points, both individually and as a group.

33% for the development of our projects, internationally, continentally, and locally, and for our micro-groups. Please note: while we are talking about our system in general, these funds will be used for the activities of the entire system, at the geographical, territorial, administrative, and electoral levels, according to the same rules as before. They will not be used for economic, financial, social, informational, multimedia, or sports activities, nor for our foundation, which have their own funds. Like all our funds, everything will be based on projects, submitted, evaluated, verified, and approved, all proportional to revenue and the number of users for each type, as well as the total number of points in each urban and rural area, and at all other levels.

You will have understood that nothing is left to chance, and we will not waste even a cent.

The same rules apply to all goods and services, received and shared equally, across various activities, throughout our system.

We hope it's clear to everyone that each of our official members, based on collective ownership, can potentially participate in all the various groups. There's complete management and control over everything, dividing the various activities into different groups, as it would be impossible for a single person to manage and verify everything. We also use all our technologies and our proprietary Artificial Intelligence model, ddsAI, to perform better, faster, more carefully, and comprehensively.

Use of electoral reimbursements and various funds by the state in countries where politics is publicly funded.

While all other revenues are managed by our central system (which includes all our official members from every continent, every people on earth, and every country), the public funds received by our organizations at the continental, national, and local levels will be managed directly by our organization, which receives these funds and public financing, always with complete control of our entire system. We'll give you an example, hoping the laws don't change, but the method is the same everywhere in the world. For example, if in France, where the state funds the various parties based on the number of votes received, our national organization (DirectDemocracyS France) receives public money, all our French official members will create management groups to monitor the use of the public funds received, with the obligation to allow the French state and all its authorities to fully and continuously monitor how all the money received has been spent. If it involves public money or electoral reimbursements, they will remain with our French national and local organizations. For each country and even at the local level, in federal states, and in all the others, there are already very detailed implementing rules.

DirectDemocracyS is a system, a political organization, and a charitable foundation, primarily non-profit, which means that every penny earned is fully spent annually, with the creation of reserve funds, according to our implementing rules and various laws.

DirectDemocracyS, with its financial, economic, information, multimedia, sports, and social activities, when not considered non-profit, and in the parts that generate profits, are entirely separate from our political organizations and charitable foundation. While we enjoy the extraterritoriality of the Internet everywhere, and can choose our various tax locations according to very detailed implementing rules, our policy is to pay all taxes, just like everyone else, precisely in the countries and territories where we generate our various profits. Obviously, we will pursue our own interests, negotiate with the various countries, and make decisions based on how the various authorities treat us and all our members. For example, there are countries that do not recognize or respect our system, or do not recognize our digital signatures, our personalized emails (certified mail), or our digital identities; others have engaged in reprehensible behavior toward one or more of our members. We will avoid investing in these countries, and if we do, we will use, like many internet giants, every legal trick available to avoid paying a single cent of taxes to those countries. We know that one cannot respond with malice to malice, but we cannot tolerate certain behaviors, and our reasons are always valid, and we do not retaliate; rather, if we offer esteem and respect, we demand esteem and respect. Let's clarify this concept with an example: if a country does not respect our system, we will not invest a single cent in that country, but we will invest in neighboring countries and states, just to avoid having to deal with those authorities. Be careful. We are talking about investments, about business, and not about our presence as a political organization, or with our charitable foundation, which represents our system, anywhere in the world.

Let it be clear to all of us as a whole system that we will respect every rule and law, everywhere in the world, and where we find laws and regulations that we and our voters consider wrong and not in the interest of the entire population, internally or externally we will change and improve all respective rules and laws, for the common good, without discrimination.

Our management of money and the funds we raise, combined with the fact that we don't waste money on trivial things, allow us to be and remain forever free, independent, neutral, resilient, secure, and incorruptible, whether with a few users in the initial phases, with many users in later phases, and potentially with the entire world population, because many users mean many volunteer activities, many donations, and many annual dues. What if everyone chose to join us, as a free user, with no obligation to attend or volunteer, to make our enormous mechanism work? We already have a sufficient number of official members (collective ownership) and verified users (shared leadership), representing all the peoples of the world, all the countries of the world, and many urban and rural areas. Therefore, we will create all our micro-groups and official organizations, which, by uniting, will create all our local organizations, from the smallest to the largest, which will integrate at the right time with our national organizations (already existing and active throughout the world), with our continental organizations, and with our international organizations. Therefore, whether few, many, or all, of all types of users, we are and will always be ready to welcome anyone who wishes to join us in the best possible way. For those who don't trust our system, or those who are part of it, the free user type, with no obligation to attend, no invitation, no documents to upload, and no volunteer work, is still a good starting point. Like all other user types, it allows for a wide range of activities, and you receive the initial 25 points, allowing anyone to accumulate more, based on our rules and impeccable behavior.
