IN THIS LESSON

Debt Mandate: Constitutional commitment to eliminate national debt within twenty years.

  • A. Debt Reduction Lockbox: Establish a constitutionally protected "Debt Elimination Fund," into which a fixed percentage of all non-income tax revenue (e.g., VAT surplus, corporate tax revenue) is legally mandated to be paid until the national debt is eliminated.

  • B. Capital Expenditure Separation: Legally mandate the separation of current government spending (operations, salaries) from capital investment (infrastructure, R&D), ensuring debt is only accrued for long-term, wealth-generating assets with proven returns.

  • C. Intergenerational Responsibility Audit: Require all major government spending programs to include an audited impact assessment detailing the financial burden or benefit placed on future generations, promoting long-term fiscal morality.

  • Sound Money: Establish an independent commission to safeguard the integrity of the pound sterling and prohibit currency manipulation.

    • A. Price Stability Anchor: Give the independent monetary commission a primary, non-negotiable mandate to maintain the purchasing power of the Pound Sterling, prioritizing price stability and protecting individual savings over political growth targets.

    • B. Transparency in Monetary Policy: Require the Bank of England to publish minutes and voting records of all monetary policy meetings within seven days, ensuring complete transparency and accountability in financial decision-making.

    • C. Gold and Digital Reserve Standard: Conduct an audit to back a portion of the nation's currency base with physical gold or highly secure digital assets, providing a stable reserve anchor against purely fiat speculation.

  • Zero Subsidy Budget: All government departments must operate without subsidies or bailouts.

    • A. Performance-Based Funding: Implement a system where all government departments' operational budgets are strictly tied to objective, measurable performance metrics and efficiency improvements, eliminating funding for redundant or underperforming activities.

    • B. Annual Efficiency Dividend: Mandate an annual, cumulative efficiency saving (e.g., 2% reduction) across all non-core departments, with savings redirected to the Debt Elimination Fund or high-priority capital projects.

    • C. Privatization of Non-Core Services: Review and auction off government functions that can be more efficiently and competitively managed by the private sector, focusing state resources purely on the essential functions of justice, defense, and core regulation.

  • Investment Standards: Implement clear national standards for financial institutions to channel capital towards nationally uplifting regional investment and innovation.

    • A. Regional Investment Credit: Introduce regulatory incentives (e.g., lower capital reserve requirements) for financial institutions that demonstrably channel a substantial percentage of their capital into verified, wealth-generating projects in economically underserved regions.

    • B. Mandatory Innovation Allocation: Establish a regulatory requirement for major institutional investors (pension funds, insurers) to dedicate a small percentage of their assets to high-growth, domestic venture capital funds focused on sovereign AI, biotech, and green energy.

    • C. Anti-Short-Termism Mandate: Reform company law and institutional governance rules to favor long-term, sustainable capital growth and productive investment over short-term quarterly profit maximization, aligning corporate goals with national economic health.
