Occupy Wall Street And 350.org

Green Phoenix Supports Occupy Wall Street and all the Related Occupations.

Also Green Phoenix Supports the 350.org website and agenda and especially the protests against the Athabasca Tar Sands Extraction and the Keystone Pipeline.

The 99% movement is really a great reality check movement.

Green Phoenix Has Some Basic Reforms for Consideration:

First and formost is the ending of the private bank consortium named deceptively and which most people think is thier governments treasury and the bank of the united states, namely the Federal Reserve Bank of the United States. And the taking over of all monetary policy by the democratic process.

The dismantling of all large corporations. This is another 99% issue. The top 1% of corporation and really the top few thousand corporations including banks and finance are the major problem. Green Phoenix advises breaking all corporation down to individual smaller companies no larger than $10 Billion to 20 Billion of revenue per enterprise. No Corporation should be allowed to be larger than an average sized state. One exception might be disappearing corporations formed to take care of extra large special projects that may become possible in a real democracy such ad building a continental mass transit system or an entire new energy system.

The end of speculation and related trade and commerce that is entirely and purely the enterprise of creating legal instruments to trade debt and risk and hedge losses in the short term. Real investment should be a mechanism to build real business, production and services, not the trading back and forth of and round and round of paper and debts. To this end currency trading, derivative trading, CDO's and computer driven trading programs are to be curtailed. The capital gains tax rate will be 90% on any trade of less than a day, with a 5% surcharge for the accounting hassles. Trades held less than a Month will be taxed at 75%, less than six months 50%, and less than a year 40%, less than ten years 25%. Capital investment held ten years or more will be taxed at 20% and indexed for inflation.

The tax rate on the top 1% of income earners and corporations will pay a 5% surcharge on income, all income for each 1/2 % the national unemployment rate is over 5%. This basically puts skin in the game for the wealthy and the big corporations and gives them a reason to support high employment.

Money to be created by ending taxation by the Federal Government and instead of money being created and the economy grown by consumerism and debt, the money supply will be grown by the Central government bank, now not the Federal Reserve but ,our reserve, paying benefits and bills and helath care and student loans etc directly as grants and or 0% loans. Excess money is to be drained off the economy with taxation, and or the destruction of currency as 0% loans are drawn back in.

Jubilee. Simply all debts have to be canceled and 1/2 that debt is to be credited to the debtor and 1/2 to the creditor. That is all debts no exceptions. This is to reset the whole world and not punish or blame anyone or any institutions. And this is to show that it is our choice to choose to have any system of currency transaction that we wish to have. All assets will be owned for a period by who owned them or had debt on them for a short time.

Global currency with a unified global set of environmental and labor rules. Very simply right now the corporations are global and they use the fact that the world is chopped up into about 200 seperate states and 200 seperate governments to manipulate currency and commodities and any means of monetary policy to wage war on the people of the world and increase profits. this is also the reason for breaking down corporations to being broken down to reasonable size.
