Obviously food,clothing,shelter should and must be available for everyone; there should be a world pool of man's essential needs and right organisation for distribution. There is sufficient scientific knowledge to produce the essential needs of man but greed, nationalistic spirit, craving for prestige and power prevent the production of the essentials for all human beings. We are not concened with feeding,clothing,and sheltering man but engrossed in a particular system which will guarantee food,clothing and shelter for all. The extreme left or the right are wrangling over a formula that will assure man security; so they are not concerned with man's happiness, but with which formula will guarantee him happiness. J Krishnamurti
Exactly. Formulas, ideologies and systems do not work. They cannot work, because they cannot cope with changing circumstances, nor with the multiplicity of variables, mostly non-quantifiable, that actually determine outcomes. A Social Policy Bond regime implies no formulas: it would stipulate only the desired social and environmental outcomes. Diverse, responsive approaches would be encouraged, and would thrive - provided they were effective and efficient. And, in a spectacular difference from the current system, failed approaches would be terminated. The self-interest of bondholders would see to that.
