Dear everybody,
I am working attempting to build a strong voters organisation to pressure
the local M P to work for policies wanted by voters. I believe history has
proved this C H Douglas strategy correct. I believe party politics works for
bankers or I should I say bankers use party politics. Therefore reformers
must use pressure from voters. When pressure from voters is greater than
pressure from bankers economists, State bureaucrats mostly economists, big
business, and others, or leaders of political parties who are naturally
responding to the pressure from above groups, then and only then will
Parliament respond to grass roots voter's policies. Voters must learn to
use democracy.
The following is the leaflet I am using in conjunction with a Louis Even
Institute for Social Justice (Rougemont Quebec Douglas adherents)pamphlet
'The Money Myth Exploded". Even though the pamphlet is a bit out of date the
message of faulty bankers management of society's money supply is still
sound.
I thank you in advance for reading and giving serious consideration to this
leaflet. I hand this out with "The Money Myth Exploded". Pakuranga is the
name of my electorate constituency. It is a tedious slow job on my own. My
age is against me at 83 so far I am getting 4 members a week joining the
"Voter's Policy Association". Just think of the pressure we could put on the
local MP if I had 10 people doing the same as me or 40 people getting just
one a week. Douglas strategy says concentrating to make a break through in
just one electorate of course.
My greatest concern is that some reformers want to marry banking with
Government Treasury and thereby create an even worse monopoly and
dictatorship than at present exists. At present we do have the two separated
with Parliament having the power to control and better manage banking.
C H Douglas warned against combining the two powers.
I will listen to suggestions and criticisms. Time is precious.
I sincerely thank you and send kindest regards.
Henry Raynel
“VOTER’S POLICY” PAKURANGA IS INDEPENDENT OF
POLITICAL PARTIES AND IS FORMING A
“VOTER’S POLICY ASSOCIATION TO ASSIST THEIR LOCAL MEMBER OF PARLIAMENT TO
WORK FOR POLICIES VOTERS WANT.
Voter’s Policy has a very strong commitment to better living standards and a
natural ‘Way of life” We stand for individual freedom, unhampered
initiative, genuine real democracy, with financial security, and no poverty
traps. Private enterprise is now unnecessarily, unnaturally, stifled and
suppressed by faulty management of our nation’s money supply by bankers and
economists. This is Fact!!!
Our production and distribution system is already naturally in our modern
age of machines and technology and can produce an abundance of consumer
goods and services. Unfortunately the present banking and financial system
is still in the pre-machine age and urgently needs modernising so that the
abundance of goods and services can be distributed equitably.
• We follow the policies from philosophies as expounded by Major
Clifford Hugh Douglas, M.I.Mech.E., M.I.E.E., consulting engineer,
economist, author, and the founder of Social Credit New Economics Movement.
He has 700 pieces of literature in the Edinburgh Library at Edinburgh
Scotland.
• Contrary to a wide spread idea in NZ, - Social Credit is not a
political party.
M P’s must represent and work for policies wanted by their local voters, -
not policies foisted on voters by banker’s economists, state bureaucrats,
big business or the leaders of Political Parties who are naturally
responding to pressure from the above.
• Parliament’s duty is to responds to pressure - when pressure from
voters is greater than pressure from the above groups, - voters will get the
policies they need and want.
• The above groups do not vote for local M P’s only local voters do.
• Local voters must insist local M Ps represent policies voters want.
• Voters Associations must be established in every electorate to
communicate policies local voter’s need and want to their local
representative M P’s to work in Parliament to have enacted and also to
reject policies not wanted
• ADD strength to democracy with Binding Citizens Initiated Referenda.
• The greatest power on earth is the “Will of the People”. Voters must
learn to use democracy. Democracy is a responsibility of voters who must be
insistent.
• Responding to voters Local M P’s and Parliament, must become the
bosses of specialists, economists, State Bureaucrats and other groups by
enacting policy legislation wanted by their local voters.
• The local MP rarely wants to lose their chosen occupation, the
privileges and good income that go with the job and will therefore work for
voters to keep their votes.
We are not against any section of NZ society we are against the present
SYSTEM of faulty banking & economics that generates total prices faster than
total incomes. It is the faulty way bankers and economists manage the
present creation, - injection and distribution of their compounding debt
money that must be modernised. The system is man made and can be changed.
Henry Ford said: “If the people of the nation understood our banking and
money system, I believe there would be a revolution before tomorrow morning”
end Quote.
Our criticisms should not be taken as directed against bank employees; not
even against bank managers or inspectors. They are but workers like you and
me, from whom is required complex precision, irreproachable integrity,
proper dress, constant courtesy, and perfect obedience….PTO.
The following is one definite constructive method of modernising banking
which can make possible modernisation of business pricing and incomes
payments to keep them in natural scientific balance.
OUR GOVERNMENT MUST CHANGE THE OWNERSHIP OF MONEY --- TAKE AWAY THE
DELEGATED RIGHT OF PRIVATE BANKING FINANCIERS TO BE THE CREATORS, OWNERS.
MANAGERS AND ALLOCATORS OF OUR NATIONS MONEY SUPPLY, ------ It is “SOCIETY’S
MONEY SUPPLY” …… TO REMOVE THAT RIGHT BY SIMPLE LEGISLATION AND TO GRANT
THAT RIGHT TO A NEWLY ESTABLISHED PEOPLES STATE MONETARY AUTHORITY, -
THEREBY CONFERRING THE RIGHT OF CREATION, OWNERSHIP, MANAGEMENT AND
ALLOCATION OF OUR NATIONS MONEY SUPPLY TO AN INDEPENDENT STATE MONETARY
AUTHORITY, SCIENTIFICALLY REPRESENTING THE PEOPLE OF THE NATION. Independent
of both politicians and bankers
With Society the owners and managers of Society’s money supply, allocations
of finance can be made direct from Society’s newly established Independent
State Money Authority to Government Treasury for all essential Government
services absolutely free of financial cost and would cancel as it circulates
the same as all money circulates and cancels now, Taxation can progressively
be eliminated.
Economic production is simply the conversion of one thing into another and
is primarily a matter of energy. God and nature provide all raw materials
free. Energy from human workers has largely been replaced by machines that
are powered with various forms of harnessed solar energy FREE!!!.
THEREFOR THIS SOLAR ENERGY PORTION OF PRODUCTION IS FREE GIFT PRODUCTION,
THAT EVERY INDIVIDUAL IS ENTITLED TO A SHARE OF FREE!!! This could correctly
be called Natures Gift Wealth” that is inherited by every individual,
It is Society’s Cultural Inheritance that must rightly be distributed with
income received from a “Society Owned Independent State Monetary Authority”
equitably as each individual’s share of their Cultural Inheritance and paid
weekly as a Universal National Dividend. It would supplement any other
income earned. Freedom remains, there would be no poverty trap.
The alternative is for society to struggle along reducing living standards,
increasing indebtedness, cost inflation and taxation as is the case today.
Today’s bankers total monopoly of money ownership and management enables
them to allocate a substantial quantity to their own agents and financial
speculative investors for buying and selling foreign exchange and other
gambling financial instruments. This is wrong and must stop.
Money is people’s means of exchange and should not be used to buy and sell
as though it was a commodity at an auction, - for general speculators to
gamble with.
A scientific, - passively managed money supply would naturally prevent this.
• Right now less than a third the banker’s present allocation of money
for various types of financial gambling on foreign exchange etc. could pay a
home maker’s guaranteed income of $300 a week free of taxation.
• Paying a homemakers income could free Mothers from going to work.
They could volunteer to be proud family homemakers, with sufficient time for
rearing their children to be good citizens of the next generation.
• Implementation strategy could give Mothers this priority financial
help first
• Private Bankers would receive their allocation of funds from the
Society’s State Money Authority free of interest or other charges, and so
could competitively finance all society’s industry and housing at lower
cost.
