A Basic Income for All People and a Marshall Plan for our World
Pieter Kooistra
A basic income for all people, only to be spent on goods and services for personal and community development. Financed by a Supplementary Global Economy.

Brief Summary
A very brief summary of the approach:  Each person receives $250 worth in goods and/or services annually only for sustainable personal and community development (so no weapons, etc.). Soon, the poorest become more productive and developing economies begin to flourish. The wealthy only have access to non-material services. Here over-consumption makes way for sustainable lifestyles as business ads, capitalising on the new market, focus on sustainable goods and services.

Financing
Using computers to link people worldwide, a Supplementary Global Economy is created to link unmet needs for goods and services with the unmet need for new markets. The resulting extra marketable goods and services form the collateral for a new hard global currency. Through global linking there would be an estimated 7% increase in world production. This would form the collateral for the new global currency, which provides each person with $250 when it is divided equally among all.
