Tithing, tax Time and Specialization

It is time for a tax on all the professions of modern society. Every professional, every organization of professionals, must be called upon to devise a way to help with up to ten percent of one’s time, an individual or family, with the special tool of prosperity unique to each specialty. Dentists must devise a way to provide some dental help, investors a way to help with savings and even donated investments or stocks that can benefit a family… There is not a profession in our world that cannot devise a creative way to donate time to the improvement of a needy life. This is the way that all ships will rise, and poverty will begin to disappear.

Government can and should play a crucial role in subsidizing this work, especially in the costs of formation of organized groupings of professionals in every town and city. But the personal engagement of human beings with each other, and the leveraging of personal expertise together with personal care, is an invaluable asset that every citizen can engage.
