Anthropic plans to commit 5% of its shares to a public benefit fund. So, how can more people share in the gains? A Citizen’s Dividend takes that idea further. Shared wealth should mean shared returns. Explore the idea: citdiv.org

Australia could collect an extra $45 billion a year from the resources it already owns. So why isn’t more of that wealth reaching the Australian people? A new report from Prosper Australia reveals a major gap in how the nation captures value from its mineral and petroleum resources. The findings: -$28 billion a year from mining -$16–18 billion a year from petroleum -Around $2 billion a year in potential revenue flowing to foreign state-linked interests Queensland has shown that stronger, boom-sensitive coal pricing can increase public revenue without an apparent negative impact on investment. Australia’s natural resources belong to the nation. Shouldn’t the public receive a fairer share?

Collecting land earnings could end land hoarding and speculation. Today’s system rewards owners for keeping land idle, while taxing buildings discourages development. Taxing land earnings instead would encourage productive land use. Discover here: citdiv.org

Australian house prices are falling, while higher inflation and interest rates affect household budgets. The RBA has stated most borrowers remain resilient, but how much breathing room is really left for you after the mortgage and essentials are paid?

Stan Kroenke owns 2.7 million acres of land in the US, making him the country's largest private landowner. Should anyone own that much land? Sure, as long as they return the land's earnings to the community. Learn more: citdiv.org

Alaska pays eligible residents an annual dividend from public resource wealth; Texas channels land and oil revenues into public education. Different models, same question for the UK: who should benefit when publicly owned wealth generates returns?

Texas and Alaska both have policies that broadly share publicly created wealth. Texas uses land/natural resource wealth to fund schools and taxes property much higher than income. Alaska invests natural resource revenues to pay everyone UBI dividends.

Should oil companies keep all their windfall profits? A Citizen’s Dividend distinguishes between oil rents from controlling a natural resource and legitimate profits from extracting and selling it. That difference matters. Learn more: citdiv.org
