The achievement society's ideal and its concept of the enemy

The GEMINI inhabitable solar power station, ideal for a stable, sustainable society, is the worst bogeyman of the achievement society.

The ideals in "Aufstieg zum Solarzeitalter" (Advance to the Solar Age)

In 1992 these ideals were defined in the book "Aufstieg zum Solarzeitalter" (Advance to the Solar Age): The GEMINI house, a unique investment in one's own housing requirements and in the energy supply of the region as a whole. It provides the electricity supply of the house, warmth through a heat pump, power for the family's electric vehicles and also adequately contributes to the region's energy supply.

Even just this contribution to the energy supply is enough to finance a modest living.

In 2010 the longing for a stable society without the neverending pressure to achieve in order to sustain one's standard of living was expressed thus:

"If typical citizens of 2050 charge the electric car they bought in 2030 with the photovoltaics they bought in 2020, then we will have achieved a stable society"

Our ideal, the achievement society's worst nightmare

What will happen to economic growth if in the year 2050 people charge the electric car they bought in 2030 with the photovoltaics they bought in 2020? For the achievement society such citizens are regarded as anti-consumerists. What means would an achievement society have to goad these citizens to ever more achievement?

Someone who has been energetically self-sufficient for 30 years through solar energy. Someone who hasn't bought any petrol or diesel for the last 20 years? An anti-consumerist who drives a 20-year-old car? Our ideal is the achievement society's worst nightmare.

Politics - political targets of PEGE
	Nonpolitical, pragmatic, on the other side of ideologies counts in our politic only one target: A long time lasting civilization able to develop further on a stable base.

Philosophy
	Long-term planning and stability have to be the guiding rules of politics. A philosophy based on the mathematic branch of games theory.

Living standard
	What is living standard? How is living standard correctly measured? Is it possible, that our living standard declines drastic, while uncorrect numbers want to make us belive it's like paradise?

Taxes tax politics
	The consequences of the tax politic for humans and environment. The politicians claim to fight for humans and the environment, but the tax politics shows the exact opposit.

Energy politic
	Decades of wrong energy politic. Instead of more living standard with less energy usage, partial the contrary was reached. A result of the wrong tax politic.

Philosophies and their impact
	We know about the religious wars of the past, but we are not aware of the most significant holy war of the present day. Achievement society vs. stability.

The goal of the achievement society
	What is the goal of the achievement society? More achievement. Whoever follows this entirely senselss aim will end up living in an entirely senseless society.

The methods of the achievement society
	The perfidious methods for forcing people to achieve more and more. How all increases in productivity have been withheld from citizens in the last decades.

US oil imports
	An outstanding example of how the achievement society favours solutions that lead to instability is the USA's dependency on oil imports.

Biofuel as an incredible hype
	The achievement society needs instability as a slaveholder's whip. The debate about biofuel vs. electromobility is a classic example of this.

Wood gatherers in the forest
	What is better? An unemployed person who heats his home with domestic fuel oil, or a wood gatherer who collects way more wood lying around in the woods than he needs? Two ideologies collide.

CER climate certificates pollution rights
	The damage created by the achievement society is supposed to be countered by an idea that has its origins in the neoliberal casino.

We have to export more at any price
	The export trade is thousands of years old, but today, the majority of states are caught up in an export race. Everyone has to export more to pay their oil bills.

Symbol of the achievement society
	More and more exports must be made so that increasingly expensive crude oil can be imported. No economy can survive that in the long run. This video symbolizes this.

Managers
	What does society expect from a manager? The different conceptions of the achievement society and of the stablity society of the manager.

Easy-earned money, hard-earned money
	Every bit more income is harder to earn. The achievement society principle destroys humans with its demand to earn ever more, ever harder-earned money.
