It is time to issue a challenge to all those nations that profess to champion freedom that the time has come for that nation to put up or shut up about that freedom. It is time that workers and employers both were finally freed from the outdated and increasingly dysfunctional economic relationship that has developed. It is time we put a stop to the growth of bloated bureaucracies who do little more than endlessly police and pinch the pennies that flow through their hands. It is time that democratically elected governments provided their citizens with a guaranteed, liveable base income, one that ensures true freedom of choice and true freedom of life for all their citizens. We need to encourage democratically elected governments to take on the responsibility for their own citizen’s economic security and well-being by finally providing those citizens with the freedom to choice how they will live out their lives without any coercive employability demands. A government that will not take up this challenge is a government that is unable or unwilling to move into the 21st century.
