I’ve determined that the best way to communicate with bright but still Social Credit non-comprehending economists like Steve Keen is to couch it in terms they have recently discovered as true. For instance Keen has discovered disequilibrium as the general state of the economy as opposed to DSGE (Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium) theory. Hence if we say to him, you’re right the economy IS in a state of continual disequilibrium because as a flow more costs of whatever kind including increasing capital depreciation costs as the economy becomes more technologically advanced. So, if we simply reverse the reality of this most basic economic metric and reality (costs exceed individual incomes simultaneously created) into individual income abundance and price deflation with a dividend that approaches a middle class income level and a retail discount percentage to prices that is high enough to create price deflation and that is rebated back to merchants…..we will have a mirror image metric and economic reality that we can call “the higher individually freeing and systemically free flowing disequilibrium”.
And of course, as ever increasing leisure would be the result of such policies….in order to avoid the possibility of habitual entitlement and sloth (not necessarily the inevitability with the vast majority of relatively balanced individuals) a cooperative effort by private institutions and public service anouncements/education would seem to be a positive and foreseeing effort.
