Monetary Alternatives
for Ethical and Economic
Democracy
Many innovative approaches to solving the problems have been
worked out. You are encouraged to examine the following levels:
 | INTER-NATIONAL: United Nations, G7, D8, EC, G15,
Commonwealth, Agenda 21 Signatories agree to Cancel National Debts; Europe issues
EURO as stable medium of exchange
|
| NATIONAL: Governments Issue Interest- and Debt-Free
Money as a Public Service
|
| FINANCIAL: Banks pay a License Fee for the privilege of
issuing money and don’t lend more than they’ve got: 100% Money rather
than Fractional Reserve Banking
|
| SOCIAL: Citizens use Time Money and Barter Money
as Virtual Currencies |
The solutions to money, finance and economics are manifold.
Paragraph 33 of Agenda 21 signed in 1992 by most governments in Rio, asks for innovative
financial mechanisms. A commitment to economic democracy offers ample
opportunities for action on many levels:
Politicians and Governments
| The Big Issue - The Money Issue means the Treasury making use
of the right to extend the aggregate called M0, the debt- and interest-free coins and
notes in circulation
|
| The Money Issue demands the ethical task of monitoring banks
and financial institutions
|
| Money as Medium of Exchange can complement Money as Scarce
Commodity
to reflect the wealth of a nation’s natural resources and the activity of its
citizens
|
| Charging Taxes and Distributing Welfare can be revisited in
the light of money availability. |
Multi-National Companies and International Organisations
| sophisticated barter systems can be introduced thanks to e-commerce
and credit card technology |

and services between companies |
