JOIN US - MAKE IT HAPPEN

This is a campaign, unpaid, but vital to our own and our children's future.

This campaign has not yet been officially launched. It is waiting for volunteers, the publication of a related academic paper, and funding.

WANTED
Musical jingle to go with these words:
It just ain't fair

My family was hard working and finally able to buy a home
It just ain't fair
They raised the interest rate and repossessed our home
It just ain't fair
Destitute apart from some savings. they allowed inflation to rip
It just ain't fair
The pension fund we had struggled to buy fell way behind in value
It just ain't fair.
They raised interest rates to sort that out. We all lost our jobs
It just ain't fair
The value of the currency rose in response
It just ain't fair
Because the exporting company that our cousins created was priced out of the market.
It just ain't fair
They brought interest rates down as far as they could go
It just ain't fair
Because now my kids want to buy a home, but the prices are way too high
It just ain't fair
They told us this crisis would be over soon - many years ago
It just ain't fair
They said there are things which they don't understand - it is true
But no one told them to listen and learn what it is that they don't want to understand
It just ain't fair
The banks they protect using our tax-paid money - the rich they get richer
It just ain't fair.
Political extremists sprouted up like mushrooms - fed by these issues
It just ain't fair
Now my kids are soldiers and are being killed in a war
It just ain't fair.

The research done by Edward Ingram has largely published with the written and published support of his team of bankers, professors, and others, explaining why all this happens is being overlooked. Economies can almost manage themselves - without the help of all these confusing changes and unfair ones at that, if only they would get started.

BUT THEY RESIST
Edward is not one of them. He is not an academic from Harvard or MIT. He is a practical man used to helping his clients to manage their finances. He was probably one of the most successful at doing that anywhere - in the 1970's and '80s. His financial innovations all worked and many were adopted whilst he was famous, in those days.

Here is what people are saying:
Azam Ali ex Senior Economist, Bank of Pakistan, writes, “I am following your endeavours in rewriting the economic framework with great interest. In principle, I am on the same page with you on all the issues you raise.”

Andrew Pampallis, Retired Head of Banking at the University of Johannesburg wrote, “When people realize what you have done all hell will break loose.” He means that every financial institution will have to make changes.

Dr Rabi N. Mishra, Economist, and a Chief General Manager, Reserve Bank of India writes: “This book will inspire rethinking on the perimeters of economic thought and theory…”

Professor Evelyn Chiloane-Tsoka from the University of South Africa, says “These ideas will become prescribed reading at universities.”

Alan Gray, Editor-in-Chief, NewsBlaze, writes, “The Macro-economic Design group’s elegant solution is so simple that it has eluded the big economic thinkers of our time, because everyone was looking for a complex solution to a complex problem.”




If you want a better and fairer and safer deal with banks, retirement savings, and everything else in mentioned in the jingle, join the campaign and cast your vote. 

You can vote 'YES' at the top right of this page.
Voter numbers count a LOT. You can join as a member of the campaign by emailing "Join Me" to the campaign address:     campaign4ffw@gmail.com
You can invite others to join using Tweet, Facebook, g+ etc. at the base of this page.

Leave the rest to us. We have experts that can talk to governments at their level to sort this out.

10, 000 votes will get it debated in the UK Parliament. Enough gets it debated in Switzerland.

---------

JUST ONE PROBLEM
Most people KNOW there is something wrong with the financial system. What they do not know is what they can do about it. This campaign is designed to do it for you. Just vote for change, (top right), help us to get 10,000 votes, (Tweet, Facebook, etc at bottom of page), and we will do the rest.

We are a team of top ex bankers and financial advisers, economists, etc. who are sickened by the way people's lives and businesses are desgtroyed because the authorities find the suject too complicated for them to deal with.

You probably know someone whose home was repossessed by a bank, someone else whose retirement savings did not perform, and someone that lost a good job or a business because of the way the economy performed. In most cases this was not their fault. It was the banking and savings system.

If you are an expert in finance or economics, see these pages:
for huge problems with home loans,
for huge problems with the government borrowing / savings system

ESSAYS AND COMMENTS
To submit an essay or comment for publication email it to us at campaign4ffw@gmail.com

AS LONG AS WE DO NOT GET MEMBERS AND VOTES, NOTHING WILL CHANGE.  
There will continue to be hundreds of millions of people, even billions, who are exposed to misery, unemployment, business failure, home repossession, poverty in retirement, and political upheavals caused by these problems. This is why:

THE BIGGEST PROBLEM

The banks do not want to listen to reforms in the contracts they offer. 
They COULD offer contracts that protect their clients and the economy from massive unfairness . See below. Instead, they try to save themselves by having massive reserves and insuring their risk, not ours. We pay more to let them do that..

SENIOR BANKERS do not want changes that create simplicity, more competition and entirely new ways of doing things. We, retired bankers and others,.have presented the alternatives to them and their central bankers, Institutes of bankers etc. thousands of times. These changes threaten their executive careers based on a lifetime of learning how things are done now. Tradition.

Traditionally we also have housing crises, a shortage of homes, bank failures, and economics problems.

BANKERS ARE POWERFUL
Banks pay more in advertising than most. This makes them powerful. We have been told that the main media like CNN, Bloomberg, the Financial Times, Washington Post, CNBC, etc. will not support us for that reason. We have tried many times. 

Banks are also politically powerful. 


WHAT TO DO
We need a campaign like this to get the attention of governments and their lawmakers.
A campaign to get everyone to ask their Member of Parliament, Congressman, Senator, etc. if they will support this campaign if elected. And wear a badge to say so. (Badges are planned - this is early days).

WHERE THE EXPERTS CAN LOOK
You (bankers, central bankers, IMF, and media), know about the peer reviews of the new way of doing things. You have been told many times.

The entire theory can be found on the various inter-linked websites starting hereor

In a series of 40 essays published by South Africa's leading online finance magazine

HOW TO CAMPAIGN
A list of MP's email addresses will be provided for you write to on THIS PAGE. (The page shortly to be added). Let us know of more of those email addresses so that we can add them too. Email them to us at the campaign email address campaign4ffw@gmail.com

A list of MP's Senators. Congressmen, European MPs' etc. email addresses will be provided on THIS PAGE. (the page shortly to be added). Let us know those email addresses so that we can add them. Email them to us us at the campaign email address:

--------------------------------------------------



TO TOP BANKERS AND OTHERS
You (Bankers, Central Bankers, IMF, World Bank, and Prime Media), know about the peer reviews of the new way of doing things. You have been told many times. There are links given above.

Even these top (retired) Bankers agree with these new ideas, but you people in charge pretend that you know better. You do not. You say like peer reviewed papers. There they are out there for all to see. 

You can also contact the team leader, Edward Ingram, for a meeting or a discussion or a presentation or seminar. A few seminars have been given at universities and other places. The academics love these lectures.

Send an email to him at campaign4ffw@gmail.com
-------------------------------

Is it your fault for not complaining..? 
YES it is.

You are the ones that are suffering most...and you know it every time you feel unsafe with your savings, home loan, job...it is your fault for not complaining. So put that right now -

VOTE 

At the top right of any page click 'Yes' to add to your weight. Should these people pay attention, ask for seminars, study the published papers? 

Should our elected representatives ask their treasuries and central bankers to enter a proper debate on this subject with public and academic scrutiny that can be challenged? 

Vote YES to that. Change the world. It is the ONLY way. 

Almost everything else has been tried. There is a book being drafted. It will be available very soon. It contains the same ideas that are there on the websites.


Ask your own bank manager what his/her bank is doing about this. Complain if they have not read the other pages (for experts) on this campaign or passed the questions upstairs to head office.
