1.     Public control of the money supply and credit creation

2.     A financial transactions tax (Robin Hood Tax)

3.     Restoration of controls on all exchange and capital movements across national borders

4.     An end to speculation by banks

5.     Derivative contracts such as swaps to be properly regulated and restricted to the needs of the real economy.

6.     Land value and natural resources taxes.

7.     All traded shares to expire after a fixed period of time. See Steve Keen.

8.     Loans on land and property to be limited to ten times the annual rental value. See Steve Keen.
