Basic Income Grant - Equal Money FAQ
By: Bernard Poolman

FAQ basic income grant - within the process of equal money initially we will be lobbying because that will be part of the political process for the introduction universally, globally, of a basic income grant that will support every human being, and at this stage it’s just the human will be involved because this will be the early stages before an equal money system comes about, where every human being is supported with an income in terms of housing, education, shelter, electricity, water, and the ability to move around, that means transport. All the basics, and clothes, so every basic point, internet and so on will be covered as a basic income grant.

That is not an equal money system, it is a basic income grant just to restore a basic level of dignity for every human, and that will be the first approach that we will be supporting.

From that, as humans are stabilized, they’ll be able to move out of the survival mentality and start to be able to look at the bigger picture, and then we can work at the re-education necessary to introduce an equality system globally, which will bring about what has been talked about as ‘heaven on earth’, practically, physically.

Obviously, a fascinating point here is if you start asking those that propose heaven on earth will be here one day, you better ask them how would they be magically touched by Jesus magic staff, will that be the way? I mean they have no clue, they believe in fact, that god will just magically just do something, that’s brainwashing, either way you are asking god to brainwash you to suddenly be part of heaven on earth. It doesn’t work that way, you are an image and likeness and creator, you have to create heaven on earth, that is your responsibility. It is not a religious statement, it is a fact practical realized statement that if one investigate you can see there is no other way for this to happen. To allow the current mess and abuse to exist is only possible by your participation whether it is in doing something or not doing, it doesn’t matter, it exist through participation. Therefore everyone is responsible because everyone participate.

For support, join us at the forums, there are regular blog books, read them, improve your reading, improve your mathematics so that no man may ever brain wash your brain, or control your thoughts or your mind, so that you can in fact talk as one as equal about what is best for all. You work it out for yourself, when everything in the world is what is best for all, you are part of the all, then your life is in fact like somebody that has walked into heaven. You are in paradise, so shift the paradigms, throw the dice so you can get to paradise. It is in a way pure magic because in essence if life is the only value everything else becomes just props. Join us.

During the phase of the basic income grant, one will either rent or buy houses, and your guarantees will be supplied by government because the payment for the house will be supplied through the basic income grant that will still be in the current capitalistic system. It will not be in an equal system. In an equal system, that is a totally different ball game, equal money is only possible 2020 and beyond. It will be many years of education before we can get to equal money, but in the meantime people are suffering, for that, basic income grant is a valuable and possible solution. It may mean for doing that, that all corporations and all resources, minings and so on, will have to be nationalized, so the profit can be used to support all the humans in the country. I mean that is what’s best for all, that is what god would do, what would you do?

I would say that there are a few possible ways in which a BIG can be funded. As was suggested in the video, the resources could be nationalized and a dividend distributed to each person. The state of Alaska in the United States already does this. Such a "negative income tax" could go a long way towards stimulating the economy. Other ways of stimulating the economy can be achieved such as investing revenue from mineral resources into infrastructure or schools (like Texas does via it's Permanent University Fund).

Another way to fund a BIG is through a so-called Tobin-tax. Proposed by Nobel prize-winning economist James Tobin, the idea is to enact a tax on foreign financial exchange transactions.

Yet another way that the Basic Income Grant could be funded is through re-direction of budget allotments from inefficient or redundant government programs. The amount of money spent on just one of the bailouts of multinational corporations could give each man woman and child in the U.S. $200 a month; why not demand the return and distribution of this money? Far more, even, has been spent on the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. It's not like this money doesn't exist.

Those are just a few ways to fund an income to be distributed to each person. I'm sure others can come up with ways to support a Basic Income Grant, too.

Another idea for funding a BIG

Bill Gates, one of the world's richest men, has traveled to the G20 meeting in France to promote a financial transactions tax as a way of alleviating poverty: http://www.commondreams.org/view/2011/11/03-7. Noting that 15 out of 20 of the countries represented there already have some sort of FTT, he recognizes the great potential in raising revenues. If only he would make the connection between the FTT and a Basic Income Grant and use the former to fund the latter!

ahh, yes, cool, when the word is more lived in the mainstream that life is equal and one, the funds will open up like a river, it's already here, we just have to walk it, and within this we have to actually live it. At desteni, we are paving the way to live and walk this into being, so it for real becomes a reality. From the movie, The End of Poverty ( a must see btw), there was a statistic shared that 40 billion dollars would stabilize the 'third world' countries in this world from the 'debt' that is being re-paid to the world bank et all for loans that where given, that is 8% of the US military budget in one year.
