A system of social prosperity guaranteed by human activity

A Citizen’s Dividend aims to give everyone an annual stipend that is enough to guarantee a humane and decent existence.

This stipend is generated from the collection and redistribution of economic rent taken from land value, as well as rents from oil, minerals, license fees and other forms of the commons.

Such a system of economic rent, once put into place in society, is practically self-sustaining. It doesn’t need any specific politician or political party to stay in power to keep the system active. It keeps itself alive simply through human activity ensuring there is always enough economic rent to collect to make everyone happy.
