A New World Economy

in #neweconomy8 years ago (edited)


Imagine a world in which every man woman and child on the
planet was given enough money per month to live on. There
is no requirement to work for that money. It is credited
to your account on a regular basis and it is guaranteed
to be there.

Now this money is not necessarily enough to pay for
all the thing you desire. It is enough to pay for your
food, clothing and accommodation only. But it does go to
everyone, no matter where they live in the world.

Suspend for a moment, your judgements on whether it is
possible or how it could be achieved. Just think about
what the world would be like in that scenario.

What problems would it fix?

What problems would it create?

Is it something we should be aiming for?

Or is it a recipe for disaster?
