Time is a Trinity. Consciously, it is a moment, and a flow of moments and in the (relatively) unconscious flow of the physical universe an enforced flow of change as well.

Economic theorists think they have solved the problems of Time, Time lags and the effects of change that Time has in the physical universe, but they actually haven’t, they’ve only palliated them. They’ve forgotten that in order to actually overcome excess cost and individual scarcity of available income, which are always the reality and always in effect in micro-economics and in every enterprise, and consequently must be macro-economically modeled, policies must be formulated to deal with these that are costless to both the individual and to the system,  have direct and immediate effects and also do not initiate the inherent systemic aspects of the actual systemic problems. Finally, these policies must resolve both the scarcity of individual incomes and the inflationary tendencies of the system….at the same time.

Theorists must also recognize that Time flows onward relentlessly and its moment to moment reality of change is cumulative and so these policies must be both ongoing, progressive, proactive and evolutionary so as to reverse the negative effects of stasis (that is the negative effects of not adapting to the changes that the passage of time itself will cause) in the physical universe. Thus the discount to retail prices must be proactively deflationary to counter these effects.

The policies that fulfill all three of those conditions and actually address the two primary problems are a free monetary gift via a universal dividend to the individual and a rebated discount to prices by retail merchants that creates actual price deflation. These policies mirror and factor both the conscious and unconscious aspects of Time mentioned above.
