Populist solutions for serious, mainstream issues are known to take root and blossom in an era when public policies have shifted dramatically in favor of government control over people’s lives, and unabashedly favor wealthy, politically-connected individuals and groups.

Populist fervor thrives when public policies have so distorted the economic and social landscapes that trust in government is lost.

William A. Galston (WSJ – Dec 16, 2014) summarized the hallmarks of the current populist wave several years ago:
Populist movements flourish when established leaders and parties fail to solve their countries’ most urgent problems. Throughout the market democracies, one problem dominates all others: the economic squeeze on working- and middle-class families. Neither the center-left nor the center-right has responded in ways that make sense to rank-and-file citizens. So they are looking elsewhere.

Populism offers many satisfactions. Its narrative is clear and easy to understand. It identifies villains—corrupt officials, unresponsive bureaucracies, arrogant elites, large corporations, giant banks…

It legitimizes outrage, the expression of which is one of the greatest human pleasures. It flatters the people, whose virtue and common sense, it claims, could set the country right if only rich and powerful forces didn’t stand in their way. “The humblest citizen in all the land,” declaimed William Jennings Bryan more than a century ago, “when clad in the armor of a righteous cause, is stronger than all the whole hosts of error that they”—the elites—“can bring.”

Populism is the politics of nostalgia. It appeals to a better time in the past….
The ills against which populists inveigh are rarely illusory. On the contrary: Populism typically gives voice to genuine grievances, and in so doing gains credibility and energy.

At the heart of the American dream is the promise of opportunity. But in the ABC/Washington Post survey conducted days before the 2014 midterm elections, 71% of Americans said the U.S. economic system generally favors the wealthy. Only 24% disagreed. The favors-the-wealthy super-majority included 54% of Republicans, 59% of conservatives, 64% of college graduates—and even 57% of those making more than $100,000 per year.
_________________________________

Government leaders in America over the past several decades have failed to solve our nation’s most urgent problems,” both social and economic. The same can be said for the governments of many other nations around the world.

Governments have not “responded in ways that make sense to rank-and-file citizens.”

The Leviticus 25 Plan appeals to “virtue and common sense….its narrative is clear and easy to understand. It identifies villains – corrupt officials, unresponsive bureaucracies, arrogant elites, large corporations, giant banks…”

The Leviticus 25 Plan levels the playing field.  It grants individual citizens the same direct access to liquidity that was awarded to the likes of Morgan Stanley, Goldman Sachs, UBS, Citigroup, Bank of America, State Street, Merrill Lynch, AIG, Deutsche Bank, Barclays, GE Capital, and many, many others during the financial crisis years of 2007-2010..

The Leviticus 25 Plan provides for massive debt relief and economic liberty for ‘ground level’ America. It unleashes the power of free-market dynamics and counters price and supply distortions that have thrived with government control over markets.

It generates massive government tax revenues – without raising taxes.  And it pays for itself over a 10-15 year period.

This is the only plan, anywhere, that restores order, and cleans up corruptive influences, and re-fires the engines of economic growth..
