Unconditional basic income made the economy in Kenya’s villages boom

Unconditional basic income made the economy in Kenya’s villages boom.

By Marco Pühringer.

Posted February 25, 2020 by Edward Morgan.

A charity implemented a massive economic stimulus package for rural Kenya: 10,500 households received $1,000 each. A study examined the effects. The result: the entire population benefited from the package and every dollar invested boosted the economy by 2.6 dollars. We can learn a lot from this.
Economists founded the organisation „GiveDirectly“ eleven years ago. They wanted to help the population in particularly poor regions of Africa and at the same time examine the economic effects of their activities. The idea is simple: A selected group of people receives money. Just like that and without conditions. The people were simply trusted to use the unconditional basic income in a meaningful way. The outcome: The local economy grew and everyone’s wellbeing got better – not only the recipients of the money. A particularly extensive study was conducted in Kenya in Siaya County, near Lake Victoria.

$1,000 for those living in thatched-roof communities

basic income
“GiveDirectly” distributed about $1,000 to 10,500 households. The money was paid out in eight installments. The only criterion for being part of the project: You had to live in a thatched house. This was the easiest way to identify who was among the poorest in the village. Those who live in modest prosperity in Kenya usually have a metal roof. And indeed, one of the most striking changes made by the project was that the houses suddenly had better roofs.

10 million dollars made Kenya’s economy boom

However, the changed village image was only a small part of the change that the project made possible. The ten million dollars that the organization took in hand led to a veritable economic miracle. Every dollar invested increased the local GDP by 2.6 dollars. To get an idea of the scale of the project: The program accounted for about 15 percent of regional economic output – three times the stimulus package that Obama put together to combat the economic crisis in 2008.

Inflation remained low despite the money rain

Normally one assumes that with such a high inflow of money for the region, the goods will become more expensive. This was also the fear of the scientists. However, this was not the case: Inflation remained very low at 0.1 percent. This provides exciting insights for economic policy in poorer regions of the world. The fact that the rate of inflation did not rise is because the local economy still had a large amount of unused capacity, noted Gharad Bryan, an economics professor at the London School of Economics:
“Anyone who has ever been to similar villages will have seen the large amounts of ‘excess labor’. It is a hallmark of many developing countries that there is simply not much to do. In this case, the money seems to encourage people to spend and this causes an increase in the number of productive hours in the economy.”

Even those who did not receive money benefited from it

Apart from the feared inflation, there was a second concern about the project: what would people think of it if they did not receive $1,000? Other studies suggest that satisfaction among this group would decline in the short term. They feel jealousy and social pressure to keep up with their neighbors’ new prosperity. Nevertheless, if you look at the results in the longer term, it becomes clear that all the inhabitants of the region have benefited.

Average income of all rose

Households that did not receive transfers also benefited from the project. Their savings and income increased. They were able to spend an average of $334 more in the following year and a half, similar to the households that received money directly from the program. The explanation is simple: The people who received $1,000 were the poorest of the population. They needed the money for urgent purchases – to build a new roof or furniture. The artisan sold more, so he went to eat in a local restaurant and so on.

Austria development aid follows the wrong approach

The experiment of “GiveDirectly” is a contrast program to the development aid of many European countries. Instead of helping the local economy, we support infrastructure projects that primarily benefit European companies.
This project has shown one thing above all: If you give money to the local population, it is used for sensible purchases. The local economy grows without strong inflationary effects and the entire population benefits. The people were free to decide about the money, and that is obviously a good thing.

STILLNESS AND INTROSPECTION

STILLNESS AND INTROSPECTION

Kate Spreckley's Inspiration.


February 26, 2020


 

day 2622020.

 


 
 
 
At this time it is important that we use our intuition and inner wisdom to move beyond judgment and limitation. Powerful internal shifts and changes are occurring urging us to contemplate and reevaluate the course of our life. We are being asked to surrender our defensive strategies and to move into a space of stillness and introspection. In this space all that remains is the wisdom of our soul and the guidance and insight we need.
Powerful energetic and creative forces are being generated deep within, which is enabling you to retrieve from your soul the wisdom, truth and clarity you need to move forward. As you work with these valuable forces greater integrity, respect, balance, alignment and consciousness is brought into your life enabling you to find solutions to the current issues you are facing. Do not get drawn into the drama of what is occurring as this will only take you further into chaos and confusion. Perceive the true nature of each situation and you will know how best to respond.
 

Much Love
 

Kate Spreckley

Powerful.

Powerful.

The Angels want you to know...

Angel Wisdom

with Sharon Taphorn.

Posted February 25, 2020.

Let go of fear and worry. 
 
When you focus on what frightens you or the negative emotions of others, you can’t help but feed those fears and increase the likelihood of their manifestation. 
 
You are powerful creators and you are literally changing the world by the thoughts and feelings you are putting out into the mass consciousness. 
 
You can’t control others…but you can control your own mental and emotional aspects. 
 
Become more aware of who you are today.
 
 
Thought for today:
Believe in yourself! When you think you are powerless to change your world, it is that lack of self-confidence that keeps you from getting what you want. Be bold, you have nothing to lose.

 

 

And so it is
You are dearly looved and supported always, the angels
 
Thank you, Mahalo, Merci, Gracias, Vielen Dank, Grazie, Спасибо, Obrigado, 谢谢, Dank, 謝謝, Chokran, Děkuji

We are removing all of the obstacles that come to Earth. .

We are removing all of the obstacles that come to Earth.

KaRa the Pleiadian Emissary.

Channeled by Erena Velazquez.

February 26, 2020.

 
.

 

 

I am KaRa Pleiadian Emissary,

I am representing Ashtar. Ashtar is my Commander and I belong to his fleet.

I am happy to be here. I was looking forward to be able to speak. I am the one who overlooks and helps some groups with their Ascension.

Today is my individual message, I am representing the Light Forces just like Ashtar does. I am sending this transmission to tell that I am happy to assist and help humanity to lift their consciousness and move to the next stage of their Evolution. I am pleased to be part of this amazing experience, for the first time in the galaxy to be able to ascend a whole planet with people on it. We are doing a lot of work behind the scenes, we are removing all of the obstacles that come to Earth. The obstacles created by the Dark Forces who don’t want for this planet to ascend. Please don’t be alarmed or be fearful, everything is going by the plan, don’t worry, just do your part.

I just want to be here and I am grateful that I can be here. I will continue to be part of this process and I will send some messages. I am pleased to see all the progress humanity is doing, especially some of the light worker communities, who are working so hard to bring and shine the light to the rest of humanity. We are proud and grateful for their dedication. We also are happy to assist humanity and help them with their process.

This year is going to be an interesting year. We are expecting for a lot of information to come out. The information that was hidden from humanity for thousand of years. Humanity was lied to about everything, including their origin. This is going to be the year of the truth, the truth will surface. We know humanity is hungry for the truth, they have been lied to, used, and they have been mistreated for a long time. Light is coming and we are grateful to see that. All of these energies that are coming to Earth and all of the things that have been done, make me happy to be part of this process. It’s an amazing process, some days it doesn’t feel like it is, because we know that humanity is still suffering, a lot people are going through hardships in different ways. We know that humanity is going through all of these diseases, which were created for them by the Dark Forces, but this is coming to end, you just need to be a little bit more patient.

I am KaRa, I was happy to be here and be channeled through this channel. I will be back again.

Thank you for this transmission

Light and Blessings to you Humanity

Erena Velazquez

CREATE YOUR VERSION OF THE SHIFT IN CONSCIOUSNESS

CREATE YOUR VERSION OF THE SHIFT IN CONSCIOUSNESS

THE 9D ARCTURIAN COUNCIL

CHANNELED BY DANIEL SCRANTON

February 25th, 2020.




create your version of the shift in consciousness - the 9th dimensional arcturian council - channeled by daniel scranton channeler of archangel michael

 
Greetings. 
 
We are the Arcturian Council. We are pleased to connect with all of you.
 
 
We are very interested in the way that you all seek to experience the shift in consciousness. We are more interested in the type of shift that you want to create than we are in what your beliefs are about the completion of the shift to the fifth dimension. We know that you have heard stories about the shift, different versions of what will happen, what might happen, and what could happen, but we always seek to empower all of you. And so, we are much more interested in what we see you creating and in what we know you truly desire in regards to ascension.

Remember that you are fourth dimensional beings now. You are not there to simply live out a preordained set of circumstances. Your blueprints are gone. It is time for you all to go back to the drawing board so to speak, and create the version of the shift that you would like to see.

All that you put into the human collective consciousness will then affect what others are desiring about the shift, because you are all linked. Many of you wonder what you can do, how you can contribute to humanity and the evolution of the human collective consciousness. Putting your unique version of the shift into the collective consciousness certainly is a contribution and a valuable one.

Please do not believe for a second that you are just one person and that your energy, vibration, and intention is not enough to change what will happen. We know that you are all going to shift in one way or another. No one is doomed. No one is stuck. Those of you who are awake will find a way to become fifth dimensional because you have been desiring that shift in consciousness for long enough.

You get to decide. You get to create timelines, realities, versions of the future that appeal to you most as an individual. And the more inclusive you are of your fellow humans in your version of the shift, the more power there is behind that desire of yours. Dream big. Dream often. And know that nothing is set in stone. There is no one inevitable future. So again, tear up those blueprints, and make today the day that you start fresh with your beautiful and imaginative, creative minds.
 
 
We are the Arcturian Council, and we have enjoyed connecting with you.



Daniel Scranton
