| Democrats for social credit are committed to: |
|
|
• Establishing a Local Authority Loans Board to fund capital works and infrastructure projects approved by local communities, with grants, nil-interest and low interest loans from the Reserve Bank.
• Promoting an International Clearing Union with export credit accounts for trading among member nations.
• Abolishing GST in favour of a simpler and fairer Financial Transactions Tax (FTT), set at a low level and collected at point of withdrawal.
• A Guaranteed Basic Income, payable to every New Zealand citizen, to progressively replace the welfare system.
|
| Democrats for social credit will require: |
|
• That the Reserve Bank be sole provider of new money, made available to trading banks at a service charge only.
• That the Reserve Bank be answerable to Government.
• That the Reserve Bank be responsible for seeing that the overseas debt is repaid and overseas transactions are in balance.
