The Wellbeing Economy Alliance highlights that a socially and environmentally improved economy can not be introduced without first creating a level playing field: “We don’t leave it to people to fend for themselves or rely on limited redistributive mechanisms, but pre-distribute power, wealth, time, and income so that the heavy lifting is done by the economy itself. Example: social enterprises and businesses owned by their workers, community wealth building and living wage”
It is that lack of a level playing field that leaves people struggling to afford somewhere to live, struggling to gain employment, struggling with ill health – caught in a vicious circle when they cannot afford the time or money to step into a better life. What is true of people is equally true of nations – poor nations struggle with debts, with low incomes and low investment that make improving welfare near impossible.
