1. Assisting disadvantaged people:
  a.
Today disadvantage groups, such as the poor, the chronically ill, the neglected elderly and the long –term unemployed, often need special assistance in order to help them make ends meet or just survive. To assist such people, they should be given preferential social treatment.
  b.
However policies based on social preference should be regarded as a temporary measure. In post-capitalist society, everyone will be guaranteed fundamental human rights, the basic requirements of life and increasing purchasing capacity, therefore preferential social measures will no longer be required.
  c.
Disadvantage people may be defined as those who have had little or no access to education and social services in the past. Such people should continue to get special assistance until all poverty in the country is eradicated; that is, until the basic requirements of life are guaranteed to all
  d.
Preferential treatment or special assistance for disadvantage people should be given on the basis of the degree of their need or deprivation. Thus, those with the greatest need should be given the greatest assistance.
  e.
In order to asses the degree of people’s need, four basic levels of need may be used.
  f.
First preference in access to education and social services should go to the poor people coming from deprived family backgrounds or socio-economic groups. Second preference should go to the poor people coming from families or groups with no history of deprivation. Third preference should go to non-poor people coming from deprived family backgrounds or groups. Last preference should go to non-poor people coming from families or groups with no history of derivation.
  g.

Those on the third and fourth levels may in fact need very little special assistance or no special assistance at all, depending upon their circumstances.

     
2. The social security system:
  a.
As a matter of principal, people must be provided with a sense of social security.
  b.
It is the responsibility of the government to ensure that all the people are guaranteed the basic requirements of life. In the event that a person becomes unemployed, finds themselves without any money and is faced with no immediate means of assistance , as a last resort the government will have to provide them with social security payments.
  c.
Several measures should be taken to make the present social security more just and more humanistic.
  d.
First, the level of social security payments should be increased immediately so that they match the level of the basic wage.
  e.
Second, those who are receiving social security payments for a specified period and are capable of working full time should be found suitable full time employment. If they are not capable of full time employment, they will have to undertake some type of compulsory social service work in order to continue to receive payments.
  f.
Third, those who are incapable of working full time due to medical reasons but can work part time will have to be found suitable part time employment .If their part time work is not sufficient to earn them the basic wage, they will have to be provided with social security payments in order to cover the difference.
  g.
Fourth, elderly people with little income and those who are not able to work at all, such as those with a medical condition and single parents with young children , will have to be paid a pension which is commensurate with the basic wage.
  h.
Such measures, however, do not mean future governments will automatically have to pay people social security payments.
  i.
In post-capitalist society, programs such as compulsory cooperative employment insurance schemes which provides people with income in the event of unemployment and compulsory cooperative superannuation and annuity schemes which provide people with income in their old age should be established to replace the present social security system
   

 

3. Child support:
  a.
In the event that a couple with children separate or split up and the custody of the children is awarded to one of the parents, the other parent will have to assist the financial support of the children.
  b.
If the parent refuses to fulfill this duty, child support will have to be automatically deducted from their wage or salary.
  c.
The parent’s legal responsibility to financially support their children will automatically end if their former partner remarries. The new spouse will have to take on the legal responsibility of sharing the financial support of the children.
  d.

In the event of a dispute over the identity of the father in such circumstances, DNA evidence should be used to revolve the dispute.
