THE NEW ECONOMY - HOW TO GET STARTED?
The goal: prosperity for everyone on the planet.
1. Universal basic income
2. Banks have turned into warehouses
3. Ensure the prosperity of each region
4. Fair distribution of central banks and IMF incentives directly to residents of towns and villages
5. Digitization of public and economic space
6. Scarce resource needs to be regulated
7. Progressive copyright taxation
8. Subsidies for the development of robotics and automation
1. Give money away. Introduce an Universal basic income. It must eliminate the losses of citizens whom the free market has relegated to the losers. If the states won't do it, a private company will come in and introduce a digital currency for the 99% and they will give the money away. Finally, the project is ready. Just find an investor or start crowdfunding. The influx of money will ensure economic development. It happens always and everywhere.
2. Banks have stopped giving interest on deposits. At that point they became warehouses and lost the right to dispose of savers' deposits. The function of bank warehouses must be taken over by central banks. At the same time, it is an anti-inflationary measure with unconditional income. Citizens will transfer part of their unconditional income into savings. The money will therefore be returned to the central banks. It will not be used by the commercial banks.
3. Ensure the prosperity of each region. Most of the money must stay in the region. This point can only be ensured through a suitably overdesigned digital currency. And therefore through a private company.
4. Focus on priorities. The European Central Bank has provided €3.3 trillion to the banks. €10,000 per Eurozone resident. This program needs to be restored and this money provided as interest-free loans to residents and businesses in each municipality, according to population, for well-defined programs - home building, energy, agricultural modernization, food production, robotics. This money must avoid the banks. If successful, gradually expand the project outside the eurozone and the EU.
5. Each of the 27 EU countries independently digitises its country and its administration. This is 27 times more expensive. The EU must take over the digitisation of public administration for all member countries. The project would consist of thematic modules and each country could choose the modules needed. The EU can offer digitisation modules free of charge to countries in Africa, Latin America and Asia. This would be a huge help for these countries, more than many development projects.
6. Houses and apartments have become forms of investment. And therefore a scarce resource that needs to be regulated. Make it compulsory to sell an apartment or house to the state. Followed by an auction to generate a price. The seller can then consider whether to accept the price. Only a person who owns less than one house or apartment can participate in the auction. Only in the absence of such a person, people who already own one apartment may participate in the auction. The next step should be a progressive tax on more than two properties owned by the same person.
7. The EU must create a catalogue of copyrights that will be protected in EU countries. Each owner of an item of copyright will describe it and determine its price. Anyone in the EU can buy and use the work at that price. A tax would also be set on the determined price. The tax percentage would increase with each additional year of protection of the work. When the tax ends, the protection of the work ends.
8. Subsidies for the development of robotics and automation and their rapid diffusion.
This is an open model. Anyone can send insights and ideas.
