HOW HENRY GEORGE GOT US THE SECRET BALLOT AND HOW WE’RE LOSING IT

Henry George had been the primary advocate of the secret ballot system which was not in place anywhere in the US before and during his 1886 election. Although never stated, there may have been irregularities in that election. What new electoral practices then came into being? Is the concept of the secret ballot in jeopardy today? This webinar will cover these questions and challenges.

    Masters of Money: Now, More than Ever. And Just in Time – Frederick Soddy’s Winning Trifecta

    In this first session of our Masters of Money series, Joe Bongiovanni will engage in a conversation on Nobel laureate Dr. Frederick Soddy’s unique work on the national economy’s broken “wealth-distributing” mechanism via our existing money system, and on society’s need for achieving ecological balance . The talk will highlight Soddy’s relevance by discussing his pioneering contribution on ‘internalizing’ the cost of environmental degradation that is regularly ‘externalized’ in today’s model of Finance Capitalism.

    Joe Bongiovanni is, perhaps uniquely, a second-generation monetary reformer and the former Director of Vermont’s Kettle Pond Institute for Debt-Free Money. Joe is a Founding Member of the U.S.-based Alliance For Just Money (Inc.) and for over a decade Joe has been a regular speaker at the American Monetary Institute’s (AMI) Annual Monetary Reform Conference.
