OOOOOPS.....SOMETHING THAT MAKES SENSE!!!

(from the Automatic Earth).....

“..basic income could remove the need for a welfare state that is patronising and humiliating..”
There are ideas that refuse to die no matter how many times they are rejected. One such idea is Universal Basic Income. Basic income is the proposal to pay all citizens an unconditional regular amount sufficient for basic needs, and then leave them to seek their fortune as best they can in the market. Few trials have been held and those have not led to large-scale adoption, but the proposal keeps recurring in social policy debates. That is largely because it is an excellent idea. In the past century the attraction for thinkers on the left and the right has been that basic income could remove the need for a welfare state that is patronising and humiliating, creates perverse incentives against working, and whose complexity means it often fails to reach those truly in need of help while subsidising the middle class.
Today, with deepening anxiety that we will all be put out of work (or, alternatively, be enslaved) by robots, the appeal of basic income has returned to its roots. More than 200 years ago, Thomas Paine advocated it as a way to fairly distribute the “ground rent” generated by concentrated landholdings to the landless — the idea being that the earth was humanity’s common property. If technological change today means markets tilt the distribution of income towards capital owners and away from workers, a similar argument can be made for the redistribution of “rent” due to humanity’s technological ingenuity equally among every citizen.

A HEADS-UP.....on a different note.....


It seems as though there is quite a bit of discussion on the Internet about Asteroid 2013TX68.

Apparently it will shave by us extremely closely somewhere between the 5th-8th of March. For some reason it's exact trajectory can't be determined. Nor it's exact time. Interesting.....

There is an old expression - Trust in the Universe, but tie up your camel.

In other words, do your OWN research and take whatever actions you feel appropriate.

Please note that this is NOT a prophecy..... do your OWN study and make up your own minds.
All I am doing is giving a heads-up. I'm not interested in scaring anyone.....more the reverse, in fact.
I'd like everyone to be safe and happy.

A STRATEGY.......THAT NEEDS ALL OF YOU.....


How to bring the Banksters to heel?


Simple!!

We use their greatest tool - against them!!

Fractional lending.

As you know, for every dollar a bank takes in, they can then loan a further $9 out.

But what if we actively reverse the process?

For every dollar we REMOVE from their clutches, they have $9 LESS to play with.

Simple!!

Ergo, keep the absolute MINIMUM in a bank account. If many of us do that - then we can get a clear message across.....

For some reason, most people still feel that their money is safe when entrusted to a bank.

Well, here's the modern way of viewing it:

You are loaning your precious money to a corporation - INTEREST FREE. Even worse, they make charges against your balance as fees. And as for safe - you are now an UNSECURED CREDITOR of the corporation. Low man on the totem pole when it comes to being repaid.

Does that change your view a little??
