Do most Deltas agree with them? I think parts of this description obviously convey other quadras' preferences in some unique situations as well. What do you think?

What changes occur in society during the transition to the fourth quadra? Historians or writers commonly refer to the time of this quadra's prominence as a "flowering", but this is wrong. Rather, what ensues is a stable prosperity. I think a more appropriate association is not with flowering, but with fruiting.
"Delta" begins with its leader - the LSE ("Administrator"). There are four main tasks that he proceeds to accomplish.
1. Decentralization of management toward something resembling a Confederation of lands (as it once was in ancient Greece - Confederations of poleis). Management should be horizontal rather than follow a vertical line.
2. The guarantee of a basic income toward every citizen, regardless of his status and his type of activity, formed by, for example, [[through fees for the resources of that territory]] or a luxury tax (this not to be confused with a living wage!). This slows down private enterprise, but also satisfies the need for this quadra's sense of social security for all members of the community.
3. The elimination of tobacco-alcohol consumption as a social phenomenon (especially among youth). These plague our society and are havens for small-scale (including domestic) criminals. Not by Prohibition, since restrictive measures are not enough. Rather, by organizing public opportunities for meaningful leisure activities. In the fourth quadra, offenders and bullies feel like outcasts.
4. A real opportunity to find a job (a profession or even a hobby) using ones abilities. In this quadra, work is not done for money, but for self-actualization. "What to do?" is the main question concerning independent youth. Self-actualization gives a higher sense of self-worth, which includes, primarily, a sense of relevance within a group and, secondly, a sense of success.
Following the establishment of the "material basis" for its existence, the quadra then proceeds to solve humanitarian problems, especially psychological disorders (suicide is a particularly bad problem in delta), as well as compatibility in inter-personal relationships.
