Keeping the economy competitive

If the costs for housing, food and energy are very high, even enormously high wages are hardly enough to live on. A vicious circle of economic decline.






Keeping the economy competitive
If the costs for housing, food and energy are very high, even enormously high wages are hardly enough to live on. A vicious circle of economic decline.

In mid-June 2020, the market capitalisation of Apple alone is higher than that of all DAX companies combined. But California is also home to many other high-tech companies.

  Germany California
Population 83.02 million 39.54 million
Area 357,582 km² 423,970 km²
Area per inhabitant 4,307 m² 10,723 m²
GDP $3,863 billion $3,200 billion
GDP per inhabitant US$ 46,653 US$ 80,563
Electricity consumption 558 TWh 260 TWh
Electricity consumption per inhabitant 6,721 kWh 6,576 kWh


Much more GDP per inhabitant, much more area per inhabitant. The standard of living should be fantastic! But how do you pay with US$ 12 minimum wage the US$ 2.400 rent for a 40 m² apartment in San Francisco? According to various calculations, in California are 13.3% or 19% below the poverty line. Living in a mobile home, a dream for 4 weeks vacation, a nightmare for 365 days a year. Who cannot afford a motorhome, lives in a tent.

  Real estate usury instead of standard of living


Supply and demand determine the price. Artificial scarcity of building land by the politicians creates an complicity to rob the population by extreme housing costs. High property prices set off a price spiral that ends with the collapse of the system. If you have to spend insane amounts of money on housing, there is no money for the climate protection. It is therefore also a climate crime.

  Another California


Sufficient area for US$ 10/m² buildable only with climate protection superiority houses. Many barracks are demolished and replaced with climate protection superiority houses. Barracks? According to Salzburg building standards, most houses in the USA are barracks. 10 million houses, 400 GW photovoltaic, 900 GWh electricity storage, 600 TWh annual production, 400 km² Aeroponic Vertical Gardening increase food production.

That would be paradise California, what we see now is hell.

UBI - Universal basic income UBI - Universal basic income
UBI is becoming increasingly necessary, but is not compatible with the current system. Creating the foundations of a UBI compatible society.


No one should have to be afraid of big changes No one should have to be afraid of big changes
Those who are afraid of their existence will vehemently oppose any change. We must therefore design a system where every loser of change becomes a winner.


UBI for self-supplying people UBI for self-supplying people
Rental apartment in San Francisco, electricity, fuel, food, craftsmen for repairs are all easily paid by the UBI. Free yourself from such excessive illusions.
