Could 2026 mark another major turning point for the global economy? In this special podcast episode hosted by Jonathan Brown, author and economic forecaster Phil Anderson explores the recurring patterns behind economic booms and busts, and why 2026 has long featured in his predictions. Drawing on insights from The Secret Life of Real Estate and Banking, Anderson examines how property cycles, interest rates, commodity markets, and geopolitical tensions can shape economic downturns.

The conversation also explores the Citizen’s Dividend, an alternative approach to sharing land-generated wealth more fairly, reducing inequality, and creating a more stable economy.

Understanding Citizen's Dividend

The Citizen’s Dividend

Using the revenue from land and resources to:

  1. fund a yearly payment to all citizens
  2. abolish all other taxes
  3. rid us of all paid politicians
 

Three great but still incomplete examples

  1. How Alaska manages its oil resources to give every single Alaskan around $1,500 per year.
  2. How Singapore manages its land to provide affordable housing for all its citizens.
  3. How Norway manages the Rent from its oil and real estate holdings for the public good, making it now the richest country on the planet

But countries can do even better! The key is in the land value.

See how a fairer system can establish lower housing costs and strengthen communities.

A simple reform that would change everything: the wages you receive, the housing costs you pay and the freedom you deserve.
