The economy/economic system is utterly embedded in the temporal universe and thus is subject to the laws of thermo-dynamics. Thermo-dynamics tells us that the temporal universe is entropic, that is ever more random, and hence the costs of maintaining it is ever more costly from an energy standpoint.

Money, being most basically an agreement, an abstraction is not subject to the laws of thermo-dynamics, and if used intelligently and reflectively of the digital nature of debt, of the debt based money system and of the most basic and primary states of consciousness (that is the states of knowing and unknowing) ….can not only negate the entropic nature of the economy, but actually reverse it toward an eventual true equilibrium via the monetary and economic policies of a virtual middle class Gifted Dividend, and a price deflationary discount to retail prices and so, along with innovation and artificial intelligence,  proactively thrusts the economy toward one where the money system increasingly becomes a ticketing system for the distribution of production.
