We learn that His Holiness, Pope John XXIII, has increased by 25 to 30 percent the salaries paid each month to the 2,000 employees of the Vatican state. He has also doubled the rate of family allowances issued over and above the salaries paid. Mothers get $16. each, and children will get $20. each.
Notice especially the allowance which is special to the mothers. Canadian mothers get no such benefit from the Canadian government. The amount given each child, without exception and regardless of how many there are in the family, is, to put it mildly, very generous.
Pierre Chaloult writing on this act of the Pope, in Le Devoir, was no doubt poking a little fun at the Crediters (who have been pressing for the doubling of family allowances in Canada for a long time now) when he said"
"No doubt the Crediters of Quebec are going to take advantage of this to say that the Pope has fallen under their influence."
No, not quite, Mr. Chaloult. But is is not surprising that they who follow the same principles should arrive at the same conclusions.
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
