Recall the temporary 1983 Caribbean Basin Initiative (CBI); we might ask Haiti how that worked for them. Other failed projects of the U.S. Agency for International Development (AID) are mentioned in this document: Cato Institute Policy Analysis No. 65: The Continuing Failure of Foreign Aid , January 31, 1986, James Bovard. On July 27, 2016, Japanese Prime Minister Abe announced another economic stimulus package, this time, $274 billion ( New York Times, Aug 2, 2016).

We will show that this workable strategy will lead to more than 500,000 U.S. peacetime manufacturing jobs in the first year, and more than 500,000 other peacetime jobs throughout the world.

The United Nations makes the "credit chits" available to peaceful democratic nations of the "Less Developed" world. To help them along the way, chits will also be very cautiously offered to those nations which are verifiably peacefully evolving toward equitable nondiscriminatory constitutional democracy.

Democratization is essential; can you imagine the people of any truly democratic nation, participants in this moral strategy, choosing going to war when it would be obvious that there are alternative non-military diplomatic and economic approaches to solving critical international conflicts?

The chits are made available to "Less Developed" nations on the basis of solicited application of: development proposals from them, verifiable need, and guarantees against misuse or corruption.

These chits to be issued by the United Nations may be utilized only for social and economic development, six specific self-sufficiency goals:

1) Modern appropriate agriculture, food, and fresh pure water production.

2) Good housing and its basic amenities, including electricity, plumbing, sewage.
