Science of Gool Leaders
Leaders are not only born great. Some are cultured from hardship of the environment they are from.
I propose that we should teach true leadership in school. Not to be confused with forms or variations of “police-ing”.
Just like how the government recruits young people to go into the soldier force, we should recruit young male and females into the government force. We would train leaders that genuinely represent the wishes of the masses of the people. They would be emphatic and seek to find ways to enrich, empower and feed/provide basics for the citizens. This is a core objective, and it is easy for a greedy corporation to style as it it cares for the poor citizens when it only cares about itself, and then try to influence this objective, but we must be wise and ensure diligently that primary care is for the majority/the poor/native Jamaican citizens.
The training would be paid for by the government.
At the end of training, there would be a test, a public quiz. The public would put questions to them. Maybe tru a text in questions to 1888NewEmps, a proxy AI interface would filter the more common questions. Then, in a publicized manner, the candidates would answer a set of these questions truthfully. They must each promise 3 deliverables. For example the answer to a housing question could be “one method of providing housing to N citizens at Y price in X time”. Bare in mind they are trained to do stuff like this. (P.S. Land is free without oppression influence)
Public voting would be done next.
Then chosen leaders for each category are contracted to 3 promises. From the promised agenda items they must deliver at least 2. The are replaced if they do not deliver at the end of 3 years, and demoted 1 level if they delivered 1 (2 levels if they delivered 0) and they cannot apply for a next three years
For those that pass or deliver, every 3 years they are retested with a the new batch, and then voting is done.
(Other countries have a similar breeding of leaders in the form of royalty i.e. Kings and Queens and Dukes etc. They are taught how to behave, however I do not think they are taught to stop colonization or to help citizens of distant colonies in the poor class)
There would be a minimum entry quiz on recruitment, with some empathy quiz questions. Recruitment is a choice, and only those who want to try out should apply. Anyone matching minimum specs can compete e.g. age range, reading & writing score, mental ability score.
There would be no blood line trait inheritance. That is, a persons heritage does not restrict them from entering, or does it guarantees them a position. I do not want anyone to feel like once he or she puts in the work then they still cannot be an “Emp” leader.
Any serious job, employers want to know candidates are qualified. Often this involves a series of training and tests. Yet we in Jamaica, generally do not know much about the parties that we are hiring to be the country’s leaders, and we contract them too long when they repeatedly break promises and tell every lie they can tell. A politician only has to lie well to get re-elected. No other job I can think of you can do this and then get several million dollars in pay. Our current system of government was forced upon us by the colonizers. Thus it may not be for the full benefit of the colonized citizens. Not even close. (Evidence in in the existence of a Governor General) However that is a different topic.
We have been having bad puppet leaders ever since the colonization of Africa. Basically greedy colonizers kill the good black leaders and heroes and replace them with their own. This and other oppression has sub-consciously put fear into the remaining blacks to retaliate (even if peacefully) and follow such fallen leaders, whilst the colonists find the worst and most selfish black men from the bottom 5 percent of the black population, elevate them and give then leadership roles, so that it will be a guarantee that those black will sell out the blacks now below them. Then colonists later publicize how black are willing to sell out other blacks, and leave out their diabolic plot in pushing for it to happen. Ask yourself why colonists had to militarize the port and the surrounding villages in Sierra Leone if it is true that typical black man was easily and willing to sell his brother. (See history post next)
It is very much a similar thing with our political leaders from independence to now, and we are lead to believe we have a choice of picking our government, but we are not choosing among a government of the people but a government of the will of greedy colonizers. Who truly wants the current government that we have. Or would you prefer what I have suggested?!
Government should be emphatic. Work with citizens and for citizens. And be held accountable, not for trying to enrich themselves like having shares in solar (this is OK) and owning solar ‘gas’ stations, but in depriving the nation from opportunities for likewise economic growth of citizens.
Let's act on what we agree on now, and argue later on what we don't.
