More news from Africa: Berg Rand Launches in South Africa

This is great news, thank you.

Beyond Money

Will Ruddick and his team are continuing to proliferate community currencies in various places around southern Africa using their Bangla-Pesa model.

Will reports as follows:

The Berg Rand or BRAND – which means ‘Fire’ Money in Afrikaans, had an amazing launch today! The FlowAfrica team lead by John Ziniades and Anna Cowen of Meshfield spent over 6 months training local youth in topics of architecture, video creation (see their youtube channel), currency and businesses development. These youth helped mobilize a network of small businesses across 3 different towns in the Bergrivier region. The businesses formed the Bergrivier Exchange Network (BEN) and designed their own medium of exchange. Similar to Bangla-Pesa and the other community currencies in Kenya the members of the BEN must be local prosumers and guaranteed by four other members of the network and must contribute to a community fund with their BRAND for social service programs…

The Founders’ Model of Welfare Actually Reduced Poverty

Whiskey Tango Foxtrot

The Founders

Thomas Jefferson and Benjamin Franklin believed government has an obligation to help the poor. Both thought welfare policies should support children, the disabled, widows and others who could not work. But any aid policy, they insisted, would include work-requirements for the able-bodied.

Rather than making welfare a generational inheritance, Franklin thought it should assist the poor in overcoming poverty as expediently as possible: “I am for doing good to the poor.…I think the best way of doing good to the poor, is not making them easy in poverty, but leading or driving them out of it.”

Moreover, local, rather than federal, officials administered this welfare, since they were more likely to know the particular needs of recipients and could distinguish between the deserving poor (the disabled and involuntarily unemployed) and the undeserving poor (those capable of work but preferring not to).

The Founders sought to provide aid…

May 30th: Unite For Our Rights National Day of Action to Stop Bill C-51

RED POWER MEDIA

Bill C-51 is reckless, dangerous, ineffective, and a threat to our basic rights.

Join the National Convergence in Ottawa on Saturday May 30 and local events across the country as we pile on the pressure to stop this reckless legislation.

Join us in putting forward our own crowdsourced positive agenda to protect our privacy and civil liberties in the 21st century (https://PrivacyPlan.ca)  Bill C-51 lacks legitimacy and it’s time to show what a plan that embraces democracy looks like.

Bill C-51 is in a crucial final phase in the Senate. The bill is up for its final vote in early June so now is the time to make some noise.

The May 30 convergence is part of a National Day of Action with events taking place in communities across Canada:

Is the solution to dealing with corrupt individuals public hanging?

Gandhi said: “An eye for an eye only makes the world blind”;
true justice is seeking reconciliation and not retribution; absolute power corrupts absolutely; how many people would remain ethical given the same position of power?
If the guilty truly wish forgiveness and reconciliation and they truly mean it AND mend their ways then who are we to judge? Judge not lest ye be judged; that’s why I chose role of administrator: I never wish to be a jury member and have to judge anybody;

Our ‘lawful’ government was sometimes operating unlawfully before 1862. When Lincoln activated troops in Maryland in order to stop its legislature from making decisions about Maryland’s status to be in the North or South, before a congressionally approved declaration of war, it was an unlawful act; he should have been hung as a traitor. There is no presidential power authorized by the constitution to take any action to stop a sovereign nation (State) from seceding from the Union. He also transgressed posse comitatis.

Even so, congress was exceeding its authority long before the civil war. No constitutional power was existent for congress to determine if a future state would be slave or non-slave based on a Mason-Dixon line. When David Crockett came up for re-election, many people chose not to vote for him again because he voted for a bill authorizing government-enforced charity to take tax dollars and use same…

This will inevitably be eradicated as a result of the charges against the corporations– as Karen Hudes said, the cleansing action will blow us back to the “Stone Age” in that an immense amount of regulatory law will be invalidated and good Amendments will be thrown out with the bad. This is the result of the festering wound of the Civil War never being cleaned and cauterized in the first place.

It is important to understand that everything we now face is the result of graft and incompetence that has been ongoing ever since the Civil War– we have 150 years worth of sludge and pus to drain out of our government system.

Anyone who thinks that will be easy is foolish, but so is anyone (ms. Hudes for example) who thinks the real task can be avoided…

Of all the peculiarities about human nature, one of the most interesting in my opinion is that we’re so resistant to change.

Humans simply don’t deal with it well. We tend to root. We find comfort in familiarity.

And, even when the familiar becomes unpleasant, we still put up with it. We prefer to suffer through something that we know rather than change things and risk the unknown.

This is why people stay in bad relationships. Or why they continue working for bosses they dislike at jobs they despise. It’s the fear of change.

But everyone… absolutely everyone… has a breaking point. It’s a point where the status quo becomes so uncomfortable, so painful, that we snap. And walk away.

It’s the same in finance. People stick with what they know, even if they have to endure a little pain and suffering.

Today’s current banking environment is the perfect example…

BBC HANDED EXPLOSIVE EVIDENCE OF MASSIVE CORRUPTION THAT COULD TOPPLE THE BRITISH ESTABLISHMENT!

by Tom Steele · 5th March 2015

Gordon Bowden is an ex RAF officer who has spent the last 13 years uncovering detailed and forensic evidence of massive corruption within the British establishment that involves Lords, Politicians and the Monarchy.

The evidence that he is witnessed and recorded handing into the BBC to do their own full investigation, is set to reveal the biggest political corruption scandal in British history, that included the setup of a colossal 250,000 “shell virtual oil and gas companies” registered from a few house addresses in Finchley Rd London, and linked to the most prominent people at the core of the British establishment. These companies were deliberately set up to steal and rob BILLIONS UPON BILLIONS of pounds from the public and asset strip the whole country!
