Have you Ever been Swept Off Your Feet?

In both cases – whether the bubble was inflated with positive or negative energy – the participants in the bubble are being swept away further and further away from actual physical reality and start to see everything either ‘extremely negatively’ or ‘extremely positively’ – neither experience is grounded in reality – because the physical is neither positive or negative – it just is what it is.

And Then You Crash – Meconomics

In this little series, we’ve been investigating the phenomenon of inflation, how we in our daily lives participate in ‘inflating our reality’ and so, how we are on a personal level participating in the same principles/dynamics that we see playing out on a bigger scale when it comes to inflation, speculative bubbles and financial market crashes.

Welcoming New Life with Living Income Guaranteed

Comfort, security and nurturing are all things we wish are present when a baby comes into this world. Yet, these conditions are not a reality for many babies, as parents themselves like these things in their lives. In Pietermaritzburg, the capital of KwaZulu Natal province in South Africa, 3 to 5 babies are…

Humanity Washed Ashore

This was an excerpt of just one of the stories about the boy. Over the last few days, dozens have been written and published on various major news sites. What is more striking than the content of the posts, is the comments that are left on these articles. What is humanity’s response to such images, to such news?

Voting Fun – What does it Feel Like to Have a Say?

Now – before such increased direct political participation is a reality – let’s do a little test to see what it feels like. So – here are some mock-questions where you’re asked to give your input. Imagine that this relates to your direct reality (eg. your town) – and your answer has a weight that influences the outcome of the decision. Of course, in reality…

Day 167: Harmony and Equilibrium within Equal Money Capitalism

Note: The EMC is an entirely new project that was started a week ago. We’re at the moment in the phase where we are brainstorming by answering questions. It’s a messy process – but an effective one to get all the relevant points addressed. So – also note that points will evolve and change as we go as we are not setting things in stone, but on a journey towards designing the EMC. The principles upon which EMC is based are laid out in the previous blog-posts. From those principles, we work our way towards what life in EMC would practically be like and how the system will function from an economic perspective.



Income Gap?


Q: There is a gap in production before a product reaches sales, how is that gap covered, meaning before this whole system is in place who is going to pay the living wages to people?


Everyone from birth will have an income allocated through the parent - so until your income from profit share is equal to everyone else's income - this point will remain in place and one will still receive an income within such transition periods.

Company Oversight


Q: Will there be a large bureaucracy to ensure compliance with EMC principles?


A: Within EMC the principle will be that everything is to work in harmony with each other.

Therefore - dependent on at which level a point of disharmony occurs, it will be addressed accordingly.
If there is a worker within a company that is not acting in a way that is best for the company as a whole - this point will be addressed by a tribunal within the company.
If it is an entire company that is behaving in a disharmonious way - it will be addressed by government departments.

Taxation and Banks


Q: Will VAT as being the only tax generate enough income for government to pay for all the infrastructure, sanitation, basic human rights and so on?

A: VAT will be added to each product in a way to make sure there is enough within the common pool of money - which is the tax - to ensure all the basic rights can be provided. Also consider that with all military expenditure falling away - there will actually be quite a substantial amount of money available to governments with which to fund these projects.

Q: Will there be also company tax - where any profits higher than what is necessary to pay employees - go as tax to government?

A: No, surplus profit that successful companies make, will be transferred to a bank.

Banks in an EMC will exist as financial intermediaries, gathering surpluses to cover deficits in other places. So - the banks will be in charge of providing extra funds to companies who are running a deficit. This point will always be temporary and the required funding will lessen as there is an intervention that takes place and action is taken to make the company more effective and able to compete.

When companies with deficits are identified - someone will be sent to intervene, because it might indicate that the company is not effective. Then the problem must be identified and they have to learn from those companies that are successful - so that all may become equally successful and effective within managing resources and distributing goods and services.

Global School Curriculum


Q: Will we have a global school?


A: The principles of the educational curriculum will be the same on a global level, where the goal is to educate humans to become the most happy, the most effective and the most empowered individuals. How this is practically implemented and translated into a curriculum will be specific to each region.

Q: Why specific to each region?


A: Education doesn't require to be the same for every person all over the world - environments differ and so the curriculum must be tailored to ensure effective living within each one’s particular environment and culture

Day 34: Occupying the Middle-Class

I forgive myself that I haven’t accepted and allowed myself to see and realise that the current world economic system does not work for everyone

I forgive myself that I haven’t accepted and allowed myself to see and realise that it is impossible for everyone to ‘make it’ and ‘get rich’ within this world – as the current world economic system is a pyramid scheme which requires a large strong foundation to maintain the top – and thus those who ‘make it’ will always only be a few while those who ‘don’t make it’ will always be the majority

I forgive myself that I haven’t accepted and allowed myself to see and realise that the current economic system of profit does not work on the basis of “creativity” – where the economic system stimulates people to be ‘more creative’ to bring about ‘more effective’ goods and services, and where profit is the reward for this endeavour – but where the current economic system is based on the one being or group, exploiting another being or group – where they manipulate the game to simple take the profits they want

I forgive myself that I haven’t accepted and allowed myself to see and realise that the middle-class is kept passive and complacent through the hope and dream of one day being rich and successful themselves

I forgive myself that I haven’t accepted and allowed myself to see and realise that the belief that anyone can make it as long as you work hard enough – is simply not true – as it is simple mathematics that if you want more and take more – that this ‘more’ has to come from somewhere

I forgive myself that I haven’t accepted and allowed myself to see and realise that the middle-class is being contained through media manipulation – where the media will report success stories of people who had nothing and worked their way up to the top – ending up with having everything

I forgive myself that I haven’t accepted and allowed myself to see and realise that the stories and the people who are being reported to have made it from nothing to everything – are in fact exceptions to the rule – as the media will only report on those things which are highly unusual as they as sensational and thus ‘newsworthy’ as these stories will generate revenue for the particular media company – instead of the media reporting every day occurrences and events such as the 21  000 children dying everyday and within that I forgive myself that I haven’t accepted and allowed myself to see and realise that the media is trying to portray these events/stories as if they are the norm – where people fall for the trap that they too can be come as wealthy – just keep working!

I forgive myself that I haven’t accepted and allowed myself to see and realise that the chance of being struck by lightning within one's lifetime is higher than the chance of living the ‘rags-to-riches’ story

I forgive myself that I haven’t accepted and allowed myself to see and realise that if a person in a developed country such as the US has got 1 in 200 000 000 chances of becoming rich – then the chances for anyone lesser developed countries is even worse off – as the amount of money one already has plays a major role in increasing your “chances”

I forgive myself that I haven’t accepted and allowed myself to see and realise that the current world economic system is not a system which provides for all equally within the consideration of life – but is a giant casino / lottery game where one in a million might hit the jackpot – yet everyone keeps playing

I forgive myself that I haven’t accepted and allowed myself to see and realise how the middle-class and everyone else hoping to be rich will oppose higher tax rates on the wealthy as they think/believe that they too will be wealthy one day – instead of seeing and realising that it’s not going to happen and that this belief is the only thing which is keeping the outrageously rich in place

I forgive myself that I haven’t accepted and allowed myself to see and realise that 69% of the people who can be qualified as rich within the world – are rich because they inherited their wealth

I forgive myself that I haven’t accepted and allowed myself to see and realise that 26,8% of the people who can be qualified as rich within this world – are rich because of criminal activities and "unethical behaviour"

I forgive myself that I haven’t accepted and allowed myself to see and realise that 4,2% of the people who can be qualified as rich within this world – are rich because they married into money

I forgive myself that I haven’t accepted and allowed myself to see and realise that the above three factors make up the foundation of over 99% of the rich people’s wealth

I forgive myself that I haven’t accepted and allowed myself to see and realise that one's chances to becoming wealthy are linked to the birth lottery and poverty

I forgive myself that I haven’t accepted and allowed myself to see and realise that higher education as college / university within this world works just like a gamble / casino – as you have more chance of losing money than gaining money – where the majority end up being burdened by student loan debt which influences the rest of their lives vs a few making it to the top and thus getting “something” out of their education while most likely their education had nothing to do with why they got rich as the numbers above have shown


I commit myself to change this world from a world of extreme inequality to one of Equality as what is Best for All

I commit myself to expose how the current world economic system does not in fact support all equally – where a few individuals at the top of the pyramid benefit from the vast majority at the bottom of the pyramid where the bottom’s loss is the top’s gain

I commit myself to show that the current world economic system is unsustainable and thus irresponsible and that it is possible to have a different world economic system where everyone’s better off as the Equal Money System

I commit myself to expose how the hope for riches is the rope the middle-class and poor hang by, as it leaves them in a state of compliance in the hope and dream that they too might one day be rich, without seeing and realising that within the current world system and dynamics that this is highly improbable

I commit myself to expose how the current world economic system works as a casino where the birth lottery decides your fate as it decides how much money will be available for you and your future

I commit myself to show those who are willing to hear that we do not have to accept this abusive system and that we can establish a world economic system within this world which will make Life worth Living

Day 25: The Mockery of Democracy

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to believe that democracy exists

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to believe that a political system is in place where elected politicians represent and work for within the best interest of the population

I forgive myself that I haven’t accepted and allowed myself to see and realise that the world is governed within a system of plutocracy (rule by the wealthy for the wealthy)

I forgive myself that I haven’t accepted and allowed myself to see and realise that presidents and leaders are not brought forth into their position through true democratic processes – but are selectively chosen by the wealthy as their candidate – where the candidate has shown promise to serve and maintain the interest of the wealthy –and thus the wealthy will sponsor and fund their candidate’s campaign and place him/her in a position of power

I forgive myself that I haven’t accepted and allowed myself to see and realise that money rules

I forgive myself that I haven’t accepted and allowed myself that no democracy and sovereignty can exist when countries are indebted over their heads to other countries and private entities – and where the latter will dictate to the debtor what must be done to remain in the creditor’s grace

I forgive myself that I haven’t accepted and allowed myself to see that there can be no political freedom within the current state of the world due to the current world economic system – as all decisions are based on money and one can only do so much if there is only so much money available and one is in massive debt

I forgive myself that I haven’t accepted and allowed myself to see and realise that there is only power where there is money

I forgive myself that I haven’t accepted and allowed myself to see and realise that a leader can only do as much as he is being supported to do financially by other parties – where these parties are the wealthy who will only support their leader if the leader supports their interest

I forgive myself that I haven’t accepted and allowed myself to see and realise that at this stage it does not matter who gets elected during a political election – as the elected can only carry out policies if he has money and this money comes from the wealthy – and thus the cash flow from the wealthy will actually determine the course of a nation

I forgive myself that I haven’t accepted and allowed myself to see and realise that although symbolic leaders change – those who actually govern do not change – as all they ever do is make sure that they do not lose their wealth and find ways to accumulate more wealth  – and thus no real change ever comes about

I forgive myself that I haven’t accepted and allowed myself to see and realise that the leaders within this world and their cronies are all interlinked with the corporatocracy – as they all in some way or another have links with major corporations and will rule and run their politics in the benefit of the corporatocracy

I forgive myself that I haven’t accepted and allowed myself to see and realise that the world isn’t run by politicians but by ruthless businessmen

I forgive myself that I haven’t accepted and allowed myself to see and realise that we are currently not all “free citizens” with a “chosen leader” who will direct a society to what is Best for All – but where we are all employees to a symbolic leader who in fact works for the corporate elite and that we are freedom is only an illusion which is maintained so we won’t see what is going on and complacently remain in our position of slaves

I commit myself to expose the political criminalities that take place within the world

I commit myself to show that the current political system is works more like a criminal syndicate than a system which support the people for the sake of the people

I commit myself to expose that we do not have and never have had a true democracy – and that the first step towards true participation and representation of the whole is the Equal Money System

I commit myself to expose the money flow which dictates who gets to be a leader and who doesn’t and how leaders will only act in a way which benefits the wealthy

I commit myself to expose that we are not living in a democracy but in a plutocracy/corporatocracy – where only money counts and money votes

I commit myself expose how no nation, no being is in fact sovereign as all are slaves to the money system and have no actual freedom whatsoever

I commit myself to show that we as the human race have in no way evolved – we’ve only gotten better at justifying our behaviour and come up with clever, sophisticated ways to keep doing what we’ve always been doing while maintaining the illusion of “evolution” and “freedom”

I commit myself to an Equal Money System – the only system where all will in fact be FREE
