Suggestion about
National Currency Law
May 18th, 2018
Takuya Kaneko
MP-Elect, JAPAN, D13
1. SUGGESTION
I suggest Asgardia government adopt the Public Money (PM) System and the Electronic Public Money (EPM) System [1] as the basic principle of National Currency Law. Both the PM and the EPM are the monetary system advocated by Dr. Kaoru Yamaguchi of Japan Futures Research Center. According to him, the behaviors of the PM System enables Stable Money Supply, Stable Price Level, No Bank-runs, Full Employment, No Government Debt and Sustainability. These are essential elements for sustainable development of Asgardia, so we should adopt the PM System to guarantee these elements.
2.EXPLANATION
We are currently living under the Debt Money System, which has been, for centuries, the root cause of many socio-economic instabilities and disasters such as Booms and Depressions, Inflation and Deflation, Unemployment, Inequality, Wars, and Environmental Destruction. In addition, it has served less than 1% of humanity. To be freed from these calamities, we have to establish the Public Money System for the welfare of 120% (including future humanity) [1].
Since 1970 to 2008, bank crisis have occurred 147 times in 114 countries causing serious reductions in output and increases in debt. Despite its frequent failures, the banking system has remained essentially unchanged and homogenous around the world. Various reform proposals have been put forward, many of them promising, but none have been implemented [2].
Dr. Kaoru Yamaguchi is now energetically speaking at universities, governments and parliaments around the world [3] aiming to implement the Public Money System. And the Public Money System was adopted as the basic principle of HR 2990 (NEED Act, National Emergency Employment Defense Act): US Congressman Dennis Kuchinich's Bill based on the American Monetary Act, which is submitted to the US House Committee on Financial Services on Sep. 21, 2011 [4].
In order to reform existing institutions in any country, people have to spend enormous energy on battle against vested interest groups. Fortunately, Asgardia is a new state, there are no domestic vested interest groups. So, Asgardia will be the first state in the world to realize the Public Money System.
