Working in voluntary co-operation, it is physically possible for individuals in all Western countries to provide themselves with all the requirements of a civilized life with reasonable hours of work. The only reason why the indivi- dual cannot obtain satisfaction is because of financial rules which are deliberately maintained to ensure that the individual cannot obtain satisfaction. Anyone who suggests that rising prices can be halted by coercing individuals into working harder, producing more (rockets for the moon), and consuming less, is either wilfully evil or has been so brain-washed that he cannot see reality.
Inflation is the major problem in every industrial country in the world. Until financial rules are altered to reflect economic facts, the only alternative to inflation is deflation. But both deflation and inflation are disastrous and help further the break-up of society and the establishment of dictatorship. The real answer to inflation is relatively simple. But many people would rather accept the drive towards the World State rather than face this fact.

In this special issue of the journal, MICHAEL, the reader will discover who are the true rulers of the world. We discuss that the current monetary system is a mechanism to control populations. The reader will come to understand that "crises" are created and that when governments attempt to get out of the grip of financial tyranny wars are waged.
An Efficient Financial System, written by Louis Even, is for the reader who has some understanding of the Douglas Social Credit monetary reform principles. Technical aspects and applications are discussed in short chapters dedicated to the three propositions, how equilibrium between prices and purchasing power can be achieved, the financing of private and public production, how a Social Dividend would be financed, and, finally, what would become of taxes under a Douglas Social Credit economy. Study this publication to better grasp the practical application of Douglas' work.
Reflections of African bishops and priests after our weeks of study in Rougemont, Canada, on Economic Democracy, 2008-2018
The Social Dividend is one of three principles that comprise the Social Credit monetary reform which is the topic of this booklet. The Social Dividend is an income granted to each citizen from cradle to grave, with- out condition, regardless of employment status.Rougemont Quebec Monthly Meetings
