Guaranteed Income Goals in Europe

Сообщение HainanWel.com(e)! » 11 июн 2016, 13:41

As you know, the people of Switzerland voted against payment of the guaranteed income of about $ 2555 for adults and $ 630 for children: 77% of citizens took part in the referendum were against. «The Local» noted that the "yes" vote en masse, residents of several neighborhoods of Geneva and Zurich, ie large cities. The reasons for this strange, at first glance, the result being actively discussed on the Internet, to the extent that states that "civilized Europeans are willing to work honestly and do not want freebies."

Ruslan Ostashko balanced commented on the event:

The Swiss have reduced the debit with credit, and it turned out that for the program khaljavnogo guaranteed income is not enough for about 200 billion dollars a year. They guessed that the state will take the money at them or their employers, and the economy and even for personal wallet of every citizen of this will end in tears.


From the outset it was not clear how the money will be collected, and why, in assessing the situation does not apply such parameter as "productivity gains", which is put forward one of the main arguments for the introduction of a guaranteed income.

Let's see in detail the issue and systematically.

Typical arguments "for": the elimination of poverty, reduction of economic inequality, reducing the costs of bureaucracy (it is not necessary to decide to whom a grant is necessary), but the main thing - it is an opportunity for people to do what you want, that will greatly enhance the working efficiency, even if some the amount will be idle.

Substantiates the theory of local experiments. The most famous example - the year 2008, Namibia. The project every resident in the village Ochivero (about a thousand) to pay monthly 100 Namibian dollars (approximately € 9) during the year. The results are inspiring: reduced poaching, children are no longer hungry, their performance has improved, the number of people living below the food poverty line fell from 76 to 37%.

Yet such a result was shown among Namibians, who are used to work for the survival and, in spite of the work, literally starving. It is clear that if you give them some money, it will decrease hunger, and relatively well-fed children will learn better. It is quite another thing, if the culture of the other, and living standards - higher. It is likely that voted "for" blocks of Geneva and Zurich - a place of mass habitation of any sort of "creators of contemporary art" and other "Creator."

income security concept vigorously promoted in several countries simultaneously: experiments are in Ohio (USA), Utrecht (Netherlands), in Ontario (Canada), there are more willing to try.

But how real is itself a situation where capital, in power, suddenly decided to help the poor and working people just like to share? Hardly. But then, so it is advantageous distribution of income security.

The fact that the majority of admiring the idea of ​​the media "forget" about the nuances: the guaranteed income is not prompted to enter in addition to running social programs, and instead thereof. In Finland, for example, want to try the following scheme:

"Institute of Social Security in Finland, KELA, expressed some preliminary thoughts about the experiment and the subsequent widespread introduction in the country of unconditional income (DB). As a result, the database will replace all the other benefits received by the people and will be relatively large. According to calculations, the Finnish citizens will receive a tax-free amount of 800 euros per month, and during the test project - 550 euros per month. It is planned that during the pilot phase of the project people will not lose their benefits, and people keep those subsidies that they now receive. "

Note zamanuhu: during the campaign and other social benefits continue, but then they will be canceled.

When the Soviet Union destroyed socialism, naive people also massively believed that all the gains will simply add a lot of new "buns" with "capitalism showcases."

The successful concept is discussed only in Kuwait, but solely because of the uniqueness of the country: the giant oil reserves of the country (9% of the world) with a population of only about 3.5 million people, of which the people receiving the guaranteed income is less than half. You can recall at least a large-scale example of Israel, where ultra-Orthodox Jews getting state benefits - simply because they are studying the Torah. At the same time ordinary Jews very negative attitude towards the Haredim ( "pious"), whereas the life of more and more "flex" under them. Here's the problem - intra; but other ethnic religious communities can create serious problems, in fact separated from the States of which the members of these communities are formally.

But let's not now about Europe and migrants, it has been written more than once.

Returning to Switzerland. Offers a guaranteed income, we will repeat - is not a gift. As the BBC reports, after the proposed reform of the income tax would not increase (ie increase and might), but the value-added tax is likely to be increased by 20-30%. And, of course, would be abolished available benefits and social benefits.

We in Russia is already: monetization of social benefits in 2005, when payment for transportation, medicine and spa treatments were replaced by cash payments (initially proposed to monetize a dozen benefits). That is, instead of free travel in urban and suburban transport, free medicines and sanatorium treatment of pensioners, the disabled and others began to pay monetary compensation, "the first group of disabled since childhood - 1.4 thousand rubles, the second group - 1000 rubles.. and the third group - 800 rubles, "Chernobyl" - 1700 rubles, an honorary donor Russia -. 500 rubles, the heroes of the Great Patriotic War -. 3.5 thousand participants of war -. 1.5 thousand rubles, the blockade -. 1.1 rubles, war invalids -. 2 thousand rubles. ".

Is it compensates for travel, medicines and medical care?

Then the seniors went to protest, but the law was passed. Would referendum, its result would be the same as in Switzerland.

It's simple: globalists need the money as a value in itself. Let's look at the distribution of income in the United States, Britain and their henchmen.



Very clearly: declining share of the top percentage of wealth stopped and turned back the clock to the destruction of the socialist system in the world, when the capitalists have left due to market expansion in the former socialist countries, and now the wealth growth slowed down again, and this 1% is hungry to learn anything else.

This redistribution of wealth on a "rich get richer, the poor get poorer" (and now rapidly decreasing, and the so-called middle class) is not only because they have more resources, but also because it set the rules of the game. You can catch the tricksters; but if the gentlemen change the rules for themselves - to sit at the table with them on their terms foolish.

Guaranteed income - a sop to the poor so that they do not interfere with their indignation to privatize what still left in the national states. Similarly, during the privatization of the national economy of the USSR "efficient owners" for a song people have diverted sop privatization of apartments.

About the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership "Russian political" I wrote more than once, but in the context of our conversation is far less important than "light up" in the media agreement on trade in services. In the "Wikipedia" about it only a few lines:

"Agreement on Trade in Services (Tradein Services Agreement, TiSA) - planned trade agreement between 23 parties, including the European Union and the United States. The aim of the agreement is the liberalization of trade services as banking, health and transport. "

Mole, a trifle, then what, what to write about it? But somehow suspicious that its content is the secret for "five years from the date of entry into force of TISA agreement or, in the absence of entry into force of any agreement, five years after the end of negotiations" (discussion TTIP also indicative goes between Washington and Brussels, and the European states do not participate).

From what was known: TISA introduce mechanisms that will translate into private hands the production of all services, including those that are traditionally considered public. Particular will become not only the banking sector and the service sector, but the entire social sector: housing and communal services, transport, communications (including the Internet). This has the same bias in favor of the interests of private property owners regarding the state as in the TTIP: they may require from the state, summarizing, the most favorable conditions to their interests, and the state should only assent and nimble to carry out orders. Dream libertarian - state running for private capital.

Significantly opinion Director of the Department of Finance of the University of Sociology at the Russian Alexei Barb government, is given in "Rossiyskaya Gazeta", saying that Russia eventually, too, can afford to pay a mandatory fixed income, without exception, and "it is logical that at the same time with the" distribution "of the money there the question of the state of social infrastructure privatization ".

Recall banality: capitalism has always aimed at maximizing revenues, "the top", and if you say anything else, then hold you for a naive fool. Private pension funds, for example, have shown "efficiency" across the world, but private prisons bring big dividends to owners.

It is in this direction and change the social sphere: first offer the carrot, and then it appears that the carrot has already eaten, but no one owes nothing to. Private owner went bankrupt, providing services to you, and that's all - some claim? You never know who does not fit into the market: both you and him. And the fact that there is guidance received "golden parachutes", so it's you they were more effective - the competition!

To really do not have to be nervous about tomorrow need not absolute income, and guarantee the provision of basic needs: housing, health care, security and education. And the right to work at the same time more important than the right to unemployment benefits.

However, the model of guaranteed income is advertised and promoted, but the real social security at least at a level no one offers USSR. And it will cost much more expensive, and objectives, as you know, totally different.
