Toward a World that Works for Everyone
I find myself in the evenings taking a process and walking through it, as preparation for starting the Michaelangelo Fund after the Reval. Last night I began to map out the UBI (universal basic income) contractual process – not like I know anything about it. I don’t. I did work for a proposal group in […]
Besides the fact that, in my opinion, after the Reval any number of lightworkers in every country will be looking to provide a universal basic income for their people…. Why a Canadian basic income is inevitable Evelyn L Forget, Special to The Globe and Mail, October 8, 2018 httpss://www.theglobeandmail.com/business/commentary/article-why-a-canadian-basic-income-is-inevitable/ In Canadian policy circles, “basic income” […]
What would a universal basic income mean for America? Stockton thinks it has the answer Anita Chabria, Los Angeles Times, Apr 15, 2019 httpss://www.latimes.com/local/california/la-pol-ca-basic-income-stockton-reparations-20190415-story.html Young, sincere and raised on the edge of poverty, Sukhi Samra has a mother who worked two minimum-wage jobs when she was a kid — days at a gas station and […]
Andrew’s espousal of UBI will certainly forward the idea, thrusting it onto the national stage. It’ll be interesting to see if either of the two major parties picks it up. If they don’t, not to worry: After the Reval, the Michaelangelo Fund will. And the national debt and universal medicare. Dream big. Presidential Candidate Andrew […]

Tiny Sikkim — best known for its dramatic Himalayan landscapes and ancient Buddhist monasteries — boasts near-universal literacy rates but struggles with high unemployment. California, the cradle of […]
Having dipped my toe into the water, (1) I’d like to take another step or two in. Originally I’d never have thought I’d be speaking on these matters. But Michael predicted I would (2) and recently I’ve felt an inner pressure to be doing so. I’d like to start looking at sources of unusual wealth […]
If one talks about issues such as financial management of very large aggregates of wealth, I imagine the question that arises in most people’s minds is: Will I be protected? I’ve asked that question of the Divine Mother and Archangel Michael many times and their answer has always been “yes” – with one notable exception. […]
I had a very interesting discussion with Archangel Michael last summer on a subject I’ve only discussed once. (1) But I’m now beginning to prepare for the role he laid out. The subject becoming front and center, I’m now willing to discuss it more. The role is called a “pipeline” and ordinarily I’d never broach […]

If we can allow ourselves to dream out loud, how might a global network of light stewards of the Mother’s wealth operate? It could be a loose confederation of people, all alerted to common opportunities, much as crowd funding operates. The individual lightworker would then make the choice of what to support and what not. […]
