Why did we stop questioning our reality? (Part 2) - Day 388

This is a continuation of the previous blog: Why did we stop questioning our reality? (Part 1) - Day 387

 

I was looking today at my childhood to allocate the time frame of which I stopped questioning my reality but to instead, submitted to what I was told and taught. Interestingly enough, although I didn't pinpoint the time frame, a specific memory came up and when I investigate the relationship between the memory and the information that I was working with, I found a fascinating thing.

 

My grandfather was a being in my life whom I had a strong relationship with, primarily because he was different from all other adults in my environment from the perspective of explaining things to me and/or sharing stories with me as if I was an adult. While everyone treated me like a child, he was communicating with me exactly as he would communicate with an adult.

There was one event where his words left a meaningful impression within me and this event was extraordinary from the perspective of him pointing out a way of reasoning thinking that I had never encountered before which was as follows:

 

We were coming back from the supermarket to my grandparents house and I was probably around 9-11 years old at that time. There was a bus station with a few very hard core religious people waiting for the bus to come and he mentioned something about the religious people being a burden on the economy of the country since all they do is praying to god the entire day on the tax payer money. He said that they do not have a job, they do not go to the army and that just sit all day, reading books and pray to God that doesn't even exists. That was the first time I heard anyone saying that there is no God. In fact, I don't remember myself questioning whether or not there is a god before, it didn't bather me much as I didn't come from a religion family and the God topic was not part of our family discussions. I asked him how did he know there is no God. So he asked me: Do you think that if God existed, he would allow for instance 6,000,000 Jews to be murdered in the second world war? (Here, a background information - my grandfather was one of the holocaust survivals and therefore, he could rationalize the God point within his frame of reference according to his life experience).

Obviously, I could relate to his question because as a child growing up in Israel, you will know anything you need to know about the holocaust from a very young age - you will hear stories about it, you will see pictures about it and if your family members were also there and live to tell about it, you will know the nitty gritty details of their experiences. And so, having that in my mind, the answer was within his question. If the God of the Jews allowed a cruel death of 6,000,000 than there are one of two options.

1 - God is Evil and should not be respected.

2 - There is no God.

For me, option number 2 made more since.

 

So - why did this memory came up. when I was looking at the memory and asked myself why this memory came up, a word flashed in my mind: "Respect". I realized that my relationship with my grandfather was of respect and integrity because he always took the time to explain to me a point when I asked: "Why". And as I go through my data base of information as I write here, I see more and more events when I asked him a question and he answered me while others did not. I also remember that when my grandmother for instance said: "No, because I said so", he expanded on the point and explained me the reason behind the answer: "No".

 

Will continue on this point in my next blog.

The Solutions:

 

Here are the Solutions that were Presented thus far - Extracted from the Economist's Journey to Life blog:

 

Unemployment / Full Employment

If unemployment exists - the government must step in to create jobs where possible - because employment is a basic human right.

 

Role of Governments

The government will still play a role to provide everyone with their basic human rights such as healthcare, education, housing, sanitation, roads, employment etc. So - the government will fund these points through taxes. The only tax that will exist are the value-added tax on products - this will be part of the labelling of products - where it'll show the percentage of the price that goes to tax and for what the tax will be used. There will be no need for an income tax to redistribute income in a fair way - because income will be distributed fairly from the get-go.

Taxation and Banks

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.

 

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.

Debt Forgiveness

Those who may find themselves in a position of unemployment as the result of Complete Debt Forgiveness will either be integrated into other companies - or government will provide them with new jobs. Preferably, these types of outflows would have to be considered before implementation to ensure smooth transitioning from one system to the next – and would thus have to be calculated and planned prior to full implementation.

These are some of the General Solution the Equal Money Capitalism System has presented.

Please make sure to educate yourself by going through the documents of the Equal Money Capitalism

And within the next blog, I will show how the Principles of the EMC will Solve the Problems I had shared thus far, with regards to Charity and Philanthropy.

 

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.

 

 

Poverty due to Humans' Ignorance Will End in an Equal Money Capitalism - Day 282

 

Within this blog, I will show another Pattern based on the Documentary - Stealing Africa - Why Poverty?

 

 

 

 

The Problem:

 

In a world where the Earth's Resources are Privatised, it is no wonder that Inequality Exists. I mean, how stupid we really are considering that Property on the MOON is now being sold to Private people. I mean seriously? What will one does with Property on the Moon? That is quite a concerning point wherein some humans have so much money and have nothing to do with it to the extent of spending their monies on buying Property on the Moon.

Same with Rüschlikon, a village in Switzerland with a very low tax rate and very wealthy residents. It was decided by the Residence to even lower the tax rate to 5% instead of 7% because there was nothing else to do with the tax money. what they haven't consider is where this money is coming from and what can be done within the principle of that which is best for all, before coming to the conclusion that they should lower the tax rate. Most of the Rüschlikon tax rate income is coming from ONE man -  Ivan Glasenberg, the CEO of Glencore, whose copper mines in Zambia. While Rüschlikon residences Enjoy a life of Wealth, about 60% of the Population of Zambia live on less than 2$. The Wealth of Rüschlikon People is on the Expense of the Zambia's people.

 

I strongly suggest that you do you research and watch the Documentary for yourself to understand the extent of the problem.

 

What needs to be Flagged here is not only Humans' Ignorance but also Humans' Cruelty where we accept and allow the Enslavement and Control of those who lives on a Land that is Full with Earth's Resources and yet, they do not have at the very least, a dignified and worthy Life.

 

 

The Solution:

 

The Equal Money Capitalism Principle of Profit Share and Equalize Wages:

 

Profit Share:

"...

WHAT IS PROFIT-SHARE?

Currently profit is the money a company makes after they have covered their costs, including paying out wages. In an EMC - profit comprises of all the added value that is placed on resources - which is your labour. Therefore - within the price, the percentage share must be included of each one that was part of the creation of the product in such a way that each one ends up with an equal share of the company's profits, so - there will be no need for wages - as the profit becomes your wage.

 

Equalizing Wages:

EQUALIZING WAGES – COOPERATION AMONG CORPORATIONS

If a company at any time makes more money than they need to provide each one with their equal share of the profit as well as covering their costs - those monies will go into a fund that is responsible for assisting companies that are not making sufficient to cover their costs and provide each one with their fair share. That way a balancing effect takes place so that all companies are not only cooperatives in how they cooperate internally - but all cooperate with each other as well…." (Day 163: Equal Money Capitalism - Redefining Profit)

 

 

The Reward:

 

At the Individual Level -

Those who are currently face their Reality as a Reality of Daily Fight for Survival, for the first time,  would be able to Enjoy their Life with the End of the Fear and Fight for their Constant survival. Within that obviously, these people would have access to all that Life that is Best for all can Possible provide while maintaining Harmony and Equilibrium. In this, they would be able to Educate themselves, expand, Grow and empower themselves as effective human beings in this world that could contribute their share for the benefit of all.

 

On a Global Level -

personally, I would sleep better with myself at night, knowing that no one in this world has to sleep tonight on the floor or worse with an empty stomach. I would sleep better at night knowing that all the children are safe and would be able to wake up to a world that embrace their very existence rather than forcing them to a life of Misery. Wouldn't you?
