ESSAY: Economic Treason

A Treatise on Our Current Economic Circumstances

An Act Concerning the Breach of Public Trust by Managers of Monies and Resources Who have Taken, Used and Spent so as to Personally Profit from the Resources of Share Owners and Citizens.

> The premise is simple. When certain individuals or parties conduct themselves in such a way as to jeopardize the economic and social well being of the community, and have done so while personally benefitting simultaneous to the detriment of those who have entrusted them with proper management of certain resources, they have "endangered the life of the polity", and, as a result, may have committed Economic Treason.

> Include that they be held accountable for their actions, and be required to repay society for the effects and impacts of their actions accordingly.

> When decision makers, representatives of the polity, if you will, engage to assist those who violate the sacred trust, they too, must be held accountable. But here we must also address what the legal definitions of involvement may be.

There are precedents in history, however unsavory, for the punishment of such crimes were to meted out against the transgressors.

We don't have to follow these methods if they do not seem fit. Perhaps the penalty of Death is not sufficient deterrent. For some, forced remediation and reimbursement for the crimes they committed shall be,  for the remained of their lives, would be a far more brutal, yet, fitting, retribution.

Even, possibly, allowing the perpetrators appear to go free, but to be permanently banned from holding any professional titles, licenses, certifications or authority; forbidden to vote - much less engaged in the public decision-making process; obligated to maintain a very public address without interventions or protections. Let forces take their own course. They shall have to deal with their adversaries unprotected.

THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS SET FORTH THE THE LAWS AS RELATED TO CRIMES OF ECONOMIC TREASON SHALL BE RETROACTIVE TO THE YEAR 1980. THEY SHALL BECOME EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY AND SHALL NOT BE SUBJECT TO ANY KIND OF STATUES OF LIMITATIONS.
