"An old man who had the misfortune to earn $300 while under the conditional pension before the age of 70, now sees his pension cut so as to reimburse what he received.
Another old man of 72 had his $40 a month; but his wife, who is over 65, having just been listed as entitled to an indigent allowance of $30, the man's pension is cut down to $30 (which is contrary to the no-means test pension law). And Canada is prosperous, sing the Liberals. Prosperous for whom?

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.

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.
