Re: HOMESTEAD: Last chance to correct Homestead Chapter ofOwnership for All- Fri.9/7/01 is deadline for changes to manuscript
Dear Norm:
Thanks very much!! I think we're increasing notice of the goals and
ideas. The COG website has had over 625,000 requests from people in over
100 countries. Thanks for your participation and patience.

Dear Deb,
I have now highlighted my suggested editing changes. You'll now
note in the attachment that I refer to the money creating powers of the
central bank instead of the term "monetization."
As you know, I cannot endorse ownership reforms that contradict any of
the three principles of economic justice advocated by Louis Kelso and
supported by members of CESJ. ( Click on
Defining
Economic Justice and Social Justice. or go to
http://www.cesj.org/thirdway/economicjustice-defined.htm)
But, while I disagree on principle with a number of your report's
proposals, I commend you and others in COG for the enormous effort and
time you've contributed to making the goal we share -- universal access
to the means of enabling every person to share ownership, profits and
governance power. In the years ahead, your effort will help open
the door to how critical this goal is to making the world work more
democratically and more justly for all.
Best regards,

Dear Norm:
I looked at the section on the
Capital Homestead Act in the draft of the Homestead paper you sent me and
did not see any changes beyond the ones that were in the version I sent
you. If you have changes, please send me an excerpt highlighting your
changes. Please note, if you use words like "monetization"
kindly define them for the lay audience.Our editor, Jackie, is a stickler
about not using "economist" or "lawyer" words unless
we define them for the reader.
Many thanks,
Deb
