Co-operative socialism and land issues

Co-operative socialism and land issues 

co-operative socialism abolishes the ownership of economic resources and replaces our relationship as humans with economic resources including land air sea electromagnetic radiation frequencies, etc, etc. with agreements for Co-operative care ship 


these agreements are designed to ensure that remediation of land is carried out on a co-op basis. It's one step on from the idea of a fully repairing lease in such place. 


The lessee's agree to hand back the resource in As good Estate as they went into the lease. 


in an agreement with the community for Co-operative careship of land the idea is that the people who agree to care for that land resource decide and agree to improve the land and at the end of there? Use for the common. Good of that land resource the land is in better shape fertility. Etc than when they went into the agreement for Co-operative care ship. 


For those of us. Who approached these matters in a religious or spiritual sense? 


We are talking about pan n theism. not pantheism which is the idea that everything is God but rather that God is present within everything. 


accordingly 


if we take control of an Economic Resource and use it for our own purposes or that of our family or particular group even if it is a co-operative. then selection implies 


removal from attachment as part of the whole. 


in co-operative care ship the idea is that the co-operators and it could be a single cooperator decide to adopt and implement the plan for Co-operative socialism including the Co-operative values and principles from the international co-operative Alliance as their principles and values by which they will care for the resource. 


this applies as much to physical land the air the seas and Waterways electromagnetic radiation and also to what I might call frozen land. In other words buildings tools equipment anything where land based resources have had value added to them in order to help human beings live full healthy and happy lives. Which leads us to the question of wealth creation and also workplace organisation that's the next topic.

workplace issues in co-operative socialism 


in capitalism work is simply a demand upon the lives of people to provide for the capitalist maximum return in the shortest possible time. 


this creates immense inequality which means that everyone the manager's the capitalists the workers unemployed the retired children infants babies teenagers students everyone suffers 


So in co-operative socialism every workplace is reassigned to a cooperative structure one of four possibilities in the social economy. Wear a market using money still exists for as long as money is used by people. The two co-operative workplace forms are either monopolies. Which are organised as community cooperatives? And market based social economy Enterprises which are organised as individual worker cooperatives. 


the common Bond to all of this are the Co-operative values and principles that are contained in the Statement on the Co-operative identity from the international co-operative Alliance which co-operators worldwide refresh every 30 or so years as they are doing at the present time. 


so that a new statement on the Co-operative identity not statement of the Co-operative identity is published after agreement. 


One way in which workplace cooperatives can ensure that they remain true and faithful to the Co-operative values and principles is for them to carry out internally and annual co-operative audit so that play review The Years work. And decide that if there are values and principles which they didn't pay attention to during the last year. They will try and so in the year to come. 


So in parallel with those market-based cooperatives community cooperatives in the Monopoly sector worker cooperatives in the diversity of provision market sector there are two forms of operatives, which will serve well in the solidarity economy. 


again, where these Form and natural Monopoly then they need to be community cooperatives, which will require funding as long as mum still is used by Society so that they can function. 


In the diversity of provision aspect of the solidarity economy, then those cooperatives. Gain by worker cooperatives each one of which will require some form of subsidy by the community in order to carry out their work. 


for example 


the royal national lifeboat institution forms a natural Monopoly in a particular area And so could receive as it does at the moment community support in terms of finance and individual support in terms of activities as Lifesavers those Lifesavers will not need to be paid to do this work. They will probably volunteer as they do at the moment, but since they will be receiving a guaranteed not means-tested or not mean tested living income for everyone. They could decide that is their contribution to society and they don't need to add to that through paid work in the social economy sector. Which brings are to the questions of incomes and will deal with that in the next section?

The Philosophy of Co-operative Socialism

 The plan for Co-operative Socialism is intended as a replacement for capitalism, not a set of adjustments to it. Our hope is that a new era of peace, love and sustainability may be brought about peacefully, nonviolently and democratically by implementing this plan, which is a replacement for the five <strong>'TRIP-Up'</strong> mechanisms that Capitalism, and other forms of tyranny, use, which are:

<strong>• T</strong> = Theft/Taxes

<strong>• R</strong> = Rent

<strong>•</strong> <strong>I</strong> = Interest

<strong>•</strong> <strong>P</strong> = Profits to shareholders

<strong>•</strong> <strong>Up</strong> = Unequal pay for work


In the long term, we envisage that<strong> 'Ownership'</strong> may be  replaced by agreements for 'Co-operative Careship'. <strong>Rent</strong>, Interest and Profits to shareholders are abolished. <strong>Workplaces</strong> are restructured as <strong>Co-operatives</strong>, some of which will be interest-free, not-for-profit Solidarity Co-ops: providing finance and business help to the wealth- and wellness-creating co-ops. All these with form a non-hierarchical set of local and National Co-operative Commonwealths: as an autonomous part of a Global <strong>Co-operative Commonweal. </strong>All for Peace and The Common Good.


<strong>History:</strong>


About every five hundred years, the human experiment takes off in a new direction, or rather, it is forced to take off in a new direction. So, for example, in 1066 the Norman Empire's form of feudalism replaced the Tribalism of Wessex, Mercia, etc, here in England. Five hundred years, or so, before that, that form of Tribalism replaced the Roman Empire which, itself had, 500 years before replaced the older family-based Tribalism of Boudica and so on. So, after about 500 years from 1066, Norman feudalism was replaced by capitalism - when, in 1545, <strong>Henry VIII</strong> allowed usury to be legal for the first time in the English speaking world (Harry Page's book 'In Restraint of Usury' is cited in the book-list page at www.interestfreemoney.org - here is a direct link to the booklist:<strong> </strong><a href="http://www.interestfreemoney.org/books.htm">http://www.interestfreemoney.org/books.htm.</a>


<em>So, now, 500 years on from 1545 (near enough) it's time to replace capitalism</em> . . .  with something better . . . picking up from the <a href="http://www.interestfreemoney.org">Campaign for Interest-Free Money</a> that we began on 28th January 1998.....  here is an updated version of a paper which first appeared on that website, introducing <a href="http://www.co-operativesocialism.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Co-operative_Socialism_201305.pdf">The Way Forward: Co-operative Socialism</a><strong>.</strong>


An earlier paper published in "Readings from the CCPA Monitor" in 2010 is here: <a href="http://www.interestfreemoney.org/papers/CCPA-Co-operativeSocialism.pdf">http://www.interestfreemoney.org/papers/CCPA-Co-operativeSocialism.pdf</a>


A  description of the <strong>Plan for Co-operative Socialism</strong> is also on an Occupy London web-page: <a href="http://occupylondon.org.uk/co-operative-socialism-by-john-courtneidge/">http://occupylondon.org.uk/co-operative-socialism-by-john-courtneidge/</a>.


For now, the plan that you see is the one that has already been adopted by <a href="http://labour-peace-action.org.uk">Labour Action for Peace</a> (in 2013), by <a href="https://occupylondon.org.uk">Occupy London</a> (in 2014, as 'an alternative to capitalism') and by the Bromley Branch of The <a href="https://party.coop">Co-operative Party</a> (also in 2014).


<strong>Forward Planning</strong>


We are developing separate pages covering FIVE POLICY AREAS and action opportunities: • <strong><a href="http://www.co-operativesocialism.org/overview/why-and-how/">Why and How</a> • <a href="http://www.co-operativesocialism.org/overview/land-issues/">Land Issues • </a><a href="http://www.co-operativesocialism.org/overview/workplace-issues/">Workplace Issues</a> • <a href="http://www.co-operativesocialism.org/overview/money-finance-banking-issues/">Money, Finance and Banking Issues</a> • <a href="http://www.co-operativesocialism.org/overview/income-issues/">Income Issues</a></strong>.


The Plan for Co-operative Socialism will hopefully evolve as new generations see new opportunities.  Meanwhile, a preliminary current definition is as follows:

<em>"Co-operative Socialism is a set of policy proposals to help create the co-operative commonwealth, in other words, a world of human and ecological co-operative relationships, rather than capitalism's warfare of coercive human and ecological relationships."</em>

Co-operative Socialism and Land Issues

Co-operative socialism and land issues co-operative socialism abolishes the ownership of economic resources and replaces our relationship as humans with economic resources including land air sea electromagnetic radiation frequencies, etc, etc. with agreements for Co-operative care ship.


Since demands for Rent are exploitative, Co-operative Socialism abolishes Rent, Interest, Profits and Unequal-pay for work.


these agreements are designed to ensure that remediation of land is carried out on a co-op basis. It's one step on from the idea of a fully repairing lease in such place. 


The lessee's agree to hand back the resource in As good Estate as they went into the lease. 


in an agreement with the community for Co-operative careship of land the idea is that the people who agree to care for that land resource decide and agree to improve the land and at the end of there? Use for the common. Good of that land resource the land is in better shape fertility. Etc than when they went into the agreement for Co-operative care ship. 


For those of us. Who approached these matters in a religious or spiritual sense? 


We are talking about pan n theism. not pantheism which is the idea that everything is God but rather that God is present within everything.

Jabbers! Sign away your houses and assets now!

 Hedley Rees Covax supply chain misfeasance expert report.pdf

Phew!

Marvellous!

Is this a smokescreen to assert that: the 'vaccines' generate no adverse effects *if handled properly*: such adverse effects, up to and including permanent paralysis and death, are therefore due to 'Operator Error': not Manfacturer Liability.

Jabbers!

You have been warned: sign away your houses and assets now!
