We seek a practical workable post-capitalist ecological economy, an economy by the people, for the people that is geared to production for need, not for profit, other than the dichotomy of all state versus all private. This is to make a principled distinction between what is naturally private property and what is the common wealth of all. Two complementary aspects of this are emphasised.
1. Recognising that the money system is naturally a social institution whose benefits should naturally be enjoyed by all.
2. A recognition of the distinct economic role of land.
For any individual access to land or natural resources that society bestows there is a corresponding duty to make a return commensurate with the privilege. These two policies combine a community-based issuance of money and government revenue based on land and resource rents.
NOTE: ‘THE PROCLAMATION OF JESUS CHRIST AS THE CRUCIFIED AND RISEN LORD AND THE CONFESSION THAT JESUS CHRIST IS LORD HAVE BOTH A INTIMATE AND COSMIC IMPLICATION. WE CANNOT CONFESS JESUS CHRIST IS LORD WITHOUT SERIOUS CONSEQUENCES FOR THE ORDERING OF POLITICAL AND ECONOMIC RELATIONSHIPS AND THE HARMONY IN WHICH HUMANKIND LIVES AS A PART OF THE WHOLE CREATION.
