‘MATTERS IN THE AIR’
We seek ways to communicate the significance of
- LAND: The economic rent of all nature provided resources to be the source of public revenue
- MONEY: The currency of society is to be issued on behalf of the people of that society interest free [given agreed costs].
- · A BASIC MEANS OF LIVELIHOOD for all A welfare security provision in the form of a living income is to be sourced for every citizen as of right—unconditionally.
This replaces the current means-testing bureaucratic arm of the state.
