Abstract

Website: https: //manual. warondisease. org/knowledge/solution/1-percent-treaty. html Abstract: Your public servants used \170 trillion of their salary to murder approximately 310 million humans over the last century of their employment. The murdered included 930, 000 doctors, 310, 000 scientists, 620, 000 engineers, and 102 million children who will never grow up to replace them. They spend 604 dollars on the capacity for orphan manufacturing for every one dollar spent on the trials that might cure what is actually going to kill their citizens. Someone you love is, at this moment, suffering from a disease because the treatment that would help them exists untested on a shelf, because the money that would have tested it was busy turning into a missile. This treaty asks the undersigned nations to be 1% more rational. Each signatory redirects exactly one percent of its military budget to pragmatic clinical trials, perpetual Incentive Alignment Bond (. . /appendix/incentive-alignment-bonds-paper. qmd) @iab-paper-2025 returns, and a Political Incentive Fund that scores legislators on compliance. Every nation cuts equally, so no country gets weaker. Trial capacity scales 12. 3x (95% CI: 4. 2x-61. 4x). The backlog of 6, 650 diseases (95% CI: 5, 700 diseases-8, 242 diseases) untreated diseases drops from 443 years (95% CI: 324 years-712 years) to 36 years (95% CI: 11. 6 years-77. 1 years). Treatments arrive 212 years sooner. 10. 7 billion deaths (95% CI: 7. 4 billion deaths-16. 2 billion deaths) preventable deaths averted, valued at \84. 8 quadrillion (95% CI: \62. 4 quadrillion-\97. 3 quadrillion). The percentage can go up. It never goes down. The Treaty is the settlement offer for the liability established in Humanity v. Government (. . /appendix/humanity-v-government. qmd), adjudicated through the Court of Humanity (court-of-humanity. qmd) @court-of-humanity-paper-2025, with the economic case quantified in 1% Treaty Impact (. . /economics/1-pct-treaty-impact. qmd) @1-pct-treaty-impact-paper-2025. Summary: Your governments possess nuclear weapons sufficient to end civilization 122 times but have not cured Alzheimer's once. This treaty asks them to be 1% more rational.
