A Utopian model, might start with a Population Formula. This would begin by setting aside wilderness areas, in which no development would be allowed, as the majority of all land area. Human population would have to be constricted to that area without expansion. Conformance of Human to Natural Law would require the elimination of Excess and Profit. Economic systems would not be based upon production, as ever more and more development, but rather upon a Conservative sustainment, of given and traditional conditions.
The quality of life would be based upon esthetics and quality, as opposed to cheap and efficient quantity. The degree of the development of technology, would have to be frozen to some specific level, such as all trains and no planes. These conditions might be exampled by village life of Europe such as Italy, France or England. Ideas and speculations concerning a Utopian model, may be about as probable and practical as a snowball in hell. However, if some catastrophe occurs such that humankind is no longer able to maintain present social and economic organizations, such that all the implements of metal now existent become rusted away, there may be no chance for future generations to ever extract and create another technological age. The metal resources still extant are so difficult to mine and rely upon advanced metal technology, that without metal already existing, all following generations may be relegated to stone age existence. In other words, the Conservative living standard would become a reality, but in a much more primitive form, than would be the reality, if it could be implemented in these present days.
Amalgamism would represent the Product of Socialism and Capitalism as a balance of systems, where both would thrive equally well, for the benefit of the All as opposed to the One. The Part should fare well in the Context of the Whole, of which it is a Part, as well as the Whole of which all the Parts are healthy.
Amalgamism would be a combination of Socialism as Government publicly owned property, supported and paid for by taxes, of the collective all, and Privatism, as personal property and organizational ownership. The use of public property is controlled by organizations, such as governments or private associations such as clubs, agencies and institutions, which represent and manage the property, for the larger community and private membership.
