if you are looking for 21st century, as opposed to 19th or 20th century political platforms.
The Transhumanist Party and Zoltan Istvan’s US Presidential campaign is politically-
centric. It aims to support voters with future-inspired policies that will enrich America and
the world. We believe science and technology can solve most of the world’s problems.
- Implement a Transhumanist Bill of Rights mandating government support of longer lifespans via science and technology
- Spread a pro-science culture by emphasizing reason and secular values
- Create stronger government policies to protect against existential risk (including artificial intelligence, plagues, asteroids, climate change, and nuclear warfare and disaster)
- Provide free education at every level; advocate for mandatory preschool and college education in the age of longer lifespans
- Create a flat tax for everyone
- Advocate for morphological freedom (the right to do anything to your body so long as it doesn’t harm others)
- Advocate for real-time democracy using available new technologies
- End costly drug war and legalize mild recreational drugs like marijuana
- Create government where all politician’s original professions are represented equally (the government should not be run by 40% lawyers when lawyers represent only 10% of the country’s jobs)
- Significantly lessen massive incarcerated population in America by using innovative technologies to monitor criminals outside of prison
- Strongly emphasize green tech solutions to make planet healthier
- Support and draft logistics for a Universal Basic Income
- Reboot the space program with significantly increased government resources
- Develop international consortium to create a “Transhumanist Olympics”
- Develop and support usage of a cranial trauma alert chip that notifies emergency crews of extreme trauma (this will significantly reduce domestic violence, crime, and tragedy in America)
- Work to use science and technology to be able to eliminate all disabilities in humans
- Insist on campaign finance reform, limit lobbyist’s power, and include 3rd political parties in government
- Create a scientific and educational industrial complex in America instead of a military industrial complex. Spend money on wars against cancer, heart disease, and diabetes—not on wars in far-off countries
