Some preambles prior to presenting the plan for change.

Pg 245. The English novelist Samuel Butler said:
"All animals, except man, know that the ultimate of life is to enjoy it."
Considering mankind’s reckless pollution of Earth’s delicately balanced environment, many animals might have thought, as their species joined the growing list of extinction statistics, life would have been far more enjoyable and assured if man lived on another planet.
Because man has a penchant for shooting himself in the foot while continuing to produce the means to do so, he would have probably polluted that one too.

"Hopefully this chapter will encourage man to think more deeply, more laterally and much bigger than ever before. He will certainly need to think differently, because the plan for change flies defiantly in the face of the long established traditions, conventions and customs which he has become deliberately conditioned to accept and abide by."

"The plan invites mankind to scuttle the slave ships of multinational and political imperialism, and create a World Governance Standard that benefits every life form on the planet without fear or favour."

Pg 264. "It is important to first underscore some of the fundamental differences between man and all other life forms on the planet, in terms of essential life sustaining needs.
Those which are common to all are clean air, clean water and clean ground in which edible food can grow, all of which are freely available from our planet’s abundant natural resources.
Man’s evolution has advanced to the point where his non-essential lifestyle needs are rapidly exceeding his very essential life sustaining needs, which is placing increasing pressure upon his ability to sustain access to, and harvesting of, resources necessary to fulfil both needs."

Pg 266. "The intention to establish a universal global pricing structure and a common cost of living index worldwide, will entail establishing a uniformity of disposable incomes worldwide. Butchers, bakers and candlestick makers will receive identical disposable incomes regardless of where they reside in the world. This philosophy is better understood by remembering the entire world will be a single nation rather than the multi-nation planet we have today."

Pg 268. "....... farmers, fruit growers and miners would no longer own – or need to own – the land they work. Indeed, there are many today who do not own the land or mines they work. They own the right to work them. In the future, they would simply continue doing what they do best, without having to concern themselves with input costs or making a profit for themselves or for shareholders."

Pg 269. "One of the fundamentals of present day political governance is that taxpayers have to fund expenditure on social services, and on everything else at which government chooses to throw our hard earned money. If there is a change of ruling party after a general election, we are confronted by a different body of politicians who invariably create another – or additional - set of targets at which to throw more of our money.
My system would be completely apolitical, run along sound conventional business management lines without the need to generate profits, dividends and taxes."

Let us be guided by Gautama Siddharta (563-483 BC), Hindu Prince and founder of Buddhism:
"There are only two mistakes one can make along the road to truth; not going all the way, and not starting."
Let us boldly employ our own initiatives and determination to lay strong foundations upon which to build our own New World Order and take bold steps to get started.
