London Global Table 26th Mar. 2014 12.00 — 14.00 at the SES
‘MATTERS IN THE AIR’
Our STRATEGY is to seek ways to communicate the quintessential 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] as a public utility.
:- 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.
:- CORPORATE PERSONHOOD – challenging this dangerous legal fiction.
Our TACTICS are outlined in these basic papers on Global Table engagements and fundamentals, which you all are invited to update or improve…………

THE MAN IN THE CASH FLOW FACE
He wore his cash flow face.
A face that changed
the world around him.
A face that blinded him in both eyes.
And obscured the point of his own life.
No matter how hard he looked.
But his cash flow face felt important.
And it made others feel important.
With their cash flow faces.
Held together with makeup and fear.
But in a single moment, the makeup
would wash away and the fear
would turn to love.
And the point of his life
would become clear.
And the cash would flow.
