Manifesto for a new social contract

All human beings are born with certain inalienable rights and freedoms. And these rights and freedoms are meant to create a better life for themselves and their fellow human beings. These freedoms and rights are the basic tools by which every human being may build his perfect world. This manifesto by admitting and defining these freedoms and rights thus explicitly states that human beings are creatures of imagination : that they are born to create, build and sustain a world of beauty, joy and perfection. And by corollary resist the destruction of these values.
