    Today's world has become dominated by: - Brexit and EU divisions and fragmentation- The rise of Populism of the left and right worldwide, and the distrust of elites and their policies which serve themselves- Globalism VS Nationalism and Democracy- Federalism and the desire to centralise power and take it away from nations and peoples- Massive bail outs of banks, bondholders, speculators and fraudsters by taxpayers costing trillions of dollars globally which is enforced by government austerity policies and the build up of massive government debt- Banking frauds and money creation frauds and accompanying debt which fuel speculative bubbles and crashes- Failed Economic Policies which worsen deflation and recessions- The build up of excessive private debt, business debt, and government debt which severely limits growth and progress- Globalisation and it's race to the bottom, combined with automation and new technologies replacing humans. Loss of millions of jobs.- Growing levels of unemployment and under-employment, and declining real wages for over 20 years- High and growing concentrations of wealth and income in many countries- Unaffordable housing and the housing crisis. The homeless crisis- Political corruption and Legal system corruption which is destroying freedom and democracy- The healthcare crisis- Wars and 'regime changes' accompanied by whole industries which profit from war, terrorism and destruction. The accompanying refugee and immigration disaster and its effect on many countries. The world in the first decades of the 21st century faces many unique, unprecedented and quite daunting challenges. This book proposes deep and profound changes to economics, politics, government, laws, banking, business, international relations, the press, and societies.This book is very different to other books. It examines: a) What are the problems and what are their causes ? What constitutes causality ? and what are the causal factors involved ? How do we deconstruct causality and the causal factors behind this disorder and chaos ? what are the dynamics, the driving factors, the hidden forces and the relationships ? b)What are the solutions based on causality, the causal factors behind these problems ? what constitutes rights and the responsibilities attached to rights ? and how are these rights and responsibilities linked to causality, and to the problems, disorder and chaos confronting countries and the world ? how do we apply responsibilities and the lessons of causality to create new more effective solutions. This will involve very new and innovative solutions which address the root causes of problems, and include: - Economic Democracy and much wider wealth and income distribution as a means to democratise real power and democratise capitalism- The ending of debt enslavement at private, business and government levels-National sovereignty and freedom- Fairer tax systems which tax economic rents, rentiers, speculation and tackle tax havens. And reduce taxes on productive investment and workers- Democratisation of banking, credit, and money creation and prioritisation of funding for productive investment, infrastructure, employee ownership, and consumption instead of speculation- New regulations & oversights of financial systems to prevent bubbles and crashes, banking corruption- Reforms to end political corruption and police & legal system corruption. Completely new checks and balances to power and new forms of accountability- New housing and land reforms to end homelessness- The provision of affordable healthcare and more efficient and effective health systems- An end to the war and terrorist machine, and refugee disasters- Environmental protection- Measures to overcome artificial divisions, hatreds, discrimination between peoples

  • - My Life with Down Syndrome

    The first memoir written by a person with Down syndromeIn this inspiring memoir, David Egan tells his own story, authentically describing a life of maximizing his abilities, as he advocates for himself and for all other people with disabilities. This book is yet another first in a life that has seen many firsts, a life buoyed by an optimistic perspective that refuses to be limited by stereotypes and the low expectations of others. As he says in the introduction, "You see there is an upside to Down. It has made me look at the words 'abilities' and 'disabilities' in a very different way than most of the world. A better way. A more inclusive way. A smarter way. I use the word 'smarter' very deliberately because one of the biggest perceptions of people with intellectual disabilities is that we are not smart."You will be quickly disabused of this faulty notion as you read David's impressive story. He has worked for more than twenty years for prestigious companies; he sits on the boards of two important advocacy organizations; he has addressed thousands of people as an advocate for people with disabilities; and he has competed in the Special Olympics. In describing his personal challenges and goals, he also conveys valuable lessons that apply to all people: the importance of a supporting family and friends; the need for others to see him and other people with disabilities as persons first, not just as examples of a diagnosis; the power of inclusion in school settings and community activities; the encouraging role that sports can play; the need for society to focus on our shared humanity despite differences; how to allow yourself to dream and to imagine possibilities; and much more.Concluding with an action plan detailing how individuals can discover their own abilities and how society can nurture those abilities, this is a book of hope that will encourage everyone to make the most of their lives.
