One Mayor find a solution to the global crisis
A MAYOR FINDS A SOLUTION TO THE WORLD CRISIS The Great Global Economic Crisis beginning in 1929, is triggered by the monetary policies of the U.S. Federal Reserve. Unemployment has spread like a plague, and there is nothing left to buy. In the city of Wörgl in Tyrol, Austria, 1,500 people are unemployed and there are 200 families without resources. At that time had 4,300 inhabitants Wörgl. Mayor Michael Unterguggenberger asks why people who want and know how to work can not do it simply because there is money to pay?. In a book of Silvio Gesell read what he could: Delivers "vouchers? for work that suggests an equivalence 1 to 1 with the shillings. For this reason the inhabitants of Wörgl recognize them as money. At the end of each month this money should hit a stamp corresponding to 1% of the ticket as a fee for use - circulatory stimulation rate! -. On July 31, 1932 beginning the experiment, with the first "worth? issued by the mayor, are paid to the workers who built the canals of sanitation. To save the fee for use, they will soon deliver the "worth? the baker, buying bread.
This in turn hastens the carpenter handing you fix the windows. The carpenter takes them to the butcher for sausages, and this to the blacksmith for a new gate. Save so much eagerness, citizens pay municipal taxes in advance. With this the mayor does fix the street. So the cycle begins again. The people of Wörgl have full employment and the city takes on a new infrastructure. The experiment is so successful that finds imitators in other communities, including the municipalities of St. Pölten and Lilienfeld, Kirchbichl in Tyrol and Styria Liezen finally are 200 municipalities that want to introduce in Austria monetary experiments similar to Wörgl. Edouard Daladier, the French prime minister, comes in person to visit the place. Unemployment fell by 25%, the economic problems plaguing the world at that time, had no increased incidence in Wörgl. But the experiment dies, financial experts, ¿because of its great success?, Declare that the experiment is nonsense. The Austrian Central Bank manages the government forbids it. He initiated a trial, and before the Administrative Court in Vienna in November 1933 and loses his mind away from the office.
Earlier, in September had been removed "vouchers?, Until then they had circulated an average of 416 times since its passage created wealth, equivalent to U.S. $ 7.5 million today. Although the mayor Unterguggenberger struggled tirelessly for his idea, put an end to the "miracle of Wörgl?. After the ban, Wörgl again take the national currency becomes a terrible unemployment and social misery. High security in the aviation industry that we enjoy today is largely made disaster, when a plane crashes, researchers and engineers to quickly turn the scene to determine the causes that led to the accident, when the Experts found a design flaw in a device or part of the plane, quickly REDESIGN that part and immediately change the hundreds of planes that are flying around the world. However, many of us have learned in the universities that business cycles are normal and accept it as well!. Is it normal for a plane to crash periodically and consider it normal? Here's the problem, the economy crashed several times, and experts are not the root cause of the crisis, the problems of the economy and its impact on society and the environment.
Silvio Gesell author of "The Natural Economic Order? written in 1916, dared to predict that in the next 25 years there will be a big crisis and a terrible war, far from being a seer, in 1929 sparked the Great Depression and later ended the Second World War. Today since 2006 the French group are anticipating a Leap2020 worse than the Great Depression of the 30's with terrible consequences. They, with the anticipations that make for 2008 obtained a 87% effectiveness, how did Gesell and the French group to predict with some accuracy the Crisis? Well, Silvio Gesell went beyond ideology and deeply analyzed the problems of the economy and society, and found that money has a design flaw. Money was invented 5000 years ago to facilitate the exchange of goods and services (real wealth), the design of today's money actually does not meet that goal, and instead cause crisis, inequality, poverty and especially the destruction of our planet. Unlike the True Wealth (which we produce with our minds and our hands), Money has become an end in the one end, simply because the money as it is designed, does not behave like the real wealth, Money does not rot like an apple, not as a tire wears, it becomes outdated as a computer, it gets old like a garment.
Such behavior of money gives too many advantages over any good or service, we are blinded by a "paper? action is simply an exchange of goods and services. That supremacy of money on the real wealth makes you even put a cost that can further assist in the exchange of goods and services, that cost is called interest rate, and here's why predicting a crisis is not that difficult. And before the show, first remember that all religions forbade interest, was considered as usury, high or low interest is considered usury.
It is all due to the inherent growth rate is exponential, and the famous banker Rothschild said "compound interest is the eighth wonder of the world!?. The money is put at interest grows in the hands of its owner exponentially, that is growing in terms of growth last year, Margrit Kennedy Money expert, says that growth is characteristic of cancer that eventually end up killing their host . The perpetual exponential growth contradicts the laws of nature, human beings and nature can not grow at the same rate it grows naturally, such as a tree grows as the years pass 210cm - 220cm - 230 cm, etc. and comes a moment that continues to grow, exponentially growing at a modest 10%, the tree would grow 200cm 220cm 242cm and go to infinity, so do humans, we run a daily amount of kilometers and gradually grow, but always get to a certain limit. And here's the mystery. In most countries, especially in the U.S., the "new money? put into circulation only through debt, the Fed is printing new banknotes and gives it to a bank to a loan through put money into the economy. That is the EMS itself requires us Human Nature and the exponential growth, that growth can obviously not hold and in fact at some point there must be a breaking point.
The endless struggle to adjust Natural growth Exponential growth Perpetual (see graph) is the reason why ruining our forests, invented machines to replace many men, people have to work more than 8 hours a day, loss of values of many entrepreneurs at the expense of survival, and so on. What if the new money comes through debt, you are asked, where does the money of interest? The bank does not create the interest!, But encourages us to start a battle against the world in order to get that money, the interest is a capital of another. The current monetary system obliges us to engage in a collective debt, and compete among members of society, with the sole purpose of securing the means for exchanges between us. If we all pay our debts there would be money in the real economy but the biggest problem is that there is enough money to pay (do not forget that the new money is coming in through the credits). Debts are perpetual, because they simply are a fundamental part of the system. Suppose our salary of $ 1000 in the first year, by constitutional provision shall be adjusted each year according to inflation, to an acceptable 3% and on the other hand, the bank put $ 1000 in the economy at a low 14%, We invite you to do the exercise in Excel ....
the result is the following:
Although both are exponential growth. the difference between the two curves after 30years is nothing more than $ 42,336.56!, this is why the world's wealth is increasingly concentrated in a few people, that is the reason that 95% of the population has to live in debt This is the reason why there is a shortage of money in the real economy and employers have to wonder why sales are falling? and finding no precise answers, to survive they must aggressively take customers to the "competition?, you are asked what will advance us as a company and as human beings: competition or cooperation?. In short, this is the why Henry Ford said: "If people really understood the process of money creation, the system would not hold more than 24 hours? and then concluded ".... in fact, it is good that our people do not understand how our banking and monetary system, if they did would be a revolution before tomorrow morning..? And the poor, middle class, and most employers have to lose, we started losing the game and here's a simple example: According to entrepreneurship studies in Latin America only 2 out of 10 survive!
The exponential growth curve as time tends to be vertical, meaning that as you go, to stand in the same period of time it takes a lot more growth than in past periods, A and B note in the chart above. This is the reason that the plans of former President G. Bush and now President B. Obama had to be Trillonarios added, which means that the curve will tend to be fast vertical and therefore understand better than we are approaching a BIG BREAK POINT. Now we do? Understanding the "Miracle of Wörgl? requires breaking many mental paradigms as they do not know any other form of money, we have a reference with which to compare, as happened when the telephone was invented, people back then to hear of this invention, they thought it was crazy talk on cables, with the telegraph had enough to communicate. The money used in Wörgl is another form of money, another concept, the concept that the faster flowing, more wealth is leaving behind, as a weapon of mass creation, sharing does not stop, everybody can sell what they offer and everyone can buy what we need.
Nobody fights against anyone, because there is enough money in the economy. Money as the wheel is useful only if in motion, as if it only gives life BLOOD flowing through the veins, without interruption. The money used in Wörgl "flows freely? because it is the same level of real wealth, the money for the effect of circulatory stimulation rate, the "rust? and that makes the coin assume a neutral role in the economy. It is true that a new concept of money has not been promoted or implemented on a large scale at present, since there is no political interest, the unsuitability of a few and especially ignorance of the majority. But in any case there are problems dodging those unstoppable movement of people around the world, redesigned coins that promote community or regional level, which complement or coexist with the conventional legal tender, the solution according to them who have tried everything political leaders understand well come from the grassroots of society. Worldwide there are already more than 5000 community or complementary currencies, and only in Germany and Austria around 60 coins that are already running and about 30 in the process of implementation, if you want more visit www.regiogeld.de (with the google translator can help people who do not know German).
The most representative case in Germany is the common currency "regions? Chiemgauer www.chiemgauer.info, driven by six young women aged 16 and 17 years as a Waldorf school project, the currency began its operation in 2003 until the present date has been impressive growth began with a community of 235 members and nearly 3000 are coming today, in 2007 turnover was € 2,254,168 and ended 2008 with a turnover of € 3,941,843, but above all is that the degree of cooperation among members has gone far beyond the figures. In the world at the community level, at regional complementary currencies or there are other systems that essentially understand the structural failure of the economy caused by the interest rate and money-backed debt, we have the systems including: LETS (Local Exchange Trading Systems), time banks, Time Dollars, Barter clubs and networks. And complementing these systems also have interest free banking, including: The JAK www.jak.se BANK of Austria, the WIR Bank in Switzerland www.wir.ch also has its own common currency, among others. (It is clarified that by "Community" refers to the group of companies and individuals who voluntarily associate and affiliate whose members accept and respect the rules and regulations of the "Association"). Currently the city operates a Wörgl institute that helps emulation experiment of "neutral money? or "money oxidized" to communities who want to do, is the Institute www.unterguggenberger.org Unterguggenberger.
Similarly RegioGeld organization that promotes the "Regios? in Germany, opens the door to any community that requires knowledge and experience. In the same way the portals www.dineroneutral.com www.complementarycurrency.org and Documentation section, you will find a wealth of information to implement a complementary currency in their community. And this crisis is a great opportunity for any country in Latin America and the world, hundreds of "Miracles? Wörgl like to come to light, so you can finally build an economy that is the servant of humanity and the environment. The tools are there, the decision is in our hands .... "Humanity and planet Earth are at a crossroads. In the next 20 years will see the irretrievable loss of much of the biodiversity and the deterioration of the quality of life of vast numbers of people, or enter a new stage of evolution. Given the remarkable motivating power of money, simply by changing the monetary system can gradually shift the direction in which we encourage billions of people without trying to control their behavior? Bernard Lietaer "If the policy recognize and constructively address this failure of capitalism, would shoot a comprehensive welfare, full employment and peace in the world, and also contribute to conservation as a place of life, of our wonderful planet.
If we introduce the neutral money, we will not be slaves to the economy. The economy will then automatically to life and therefore human beings "Wolfgang Berger
