Private finance has been a problematic business model for over 5000 years. Why we are allowing it to still call the shots is testimony to their money power, but probably even more to the hypnotic effects of habitual orthodoxy.
Their strategy is undoubtedly to manage the mess we call economies as best they can by making it as slow a slo-mo train wreck as they possibly can and hence making us all boiled frogs in the process. This however is a failure waiting to happen, and they know this. They will risk war, probably thinking they can manage it, but that is hubris as well. All leading edge theorists and reformers need to ally themselves with each other and decide to end the rule of Finance with the only economically valid way to drive a stake through the heart of private finance by integrating direct monetary Gifting into the debt based money system and making sure that the banking structure is firmly and ethically guided by the root concept that is missing from the current system, namely Grace in its many aspects. You fight an idea/paradigm by conceiving a new one that remedies the basic problem. Nothing religious or “airy-fairy’ about any of this. Just the logic, hard headed relevant competence and ethically resonant power of the deepest and most powerful concept in the cosmos Grace-Consciousness itself.

JD,
Of course Finance will use whatever powers and strategies it can to remain dominant…including distraction from the actual and total solution to the problem.
Private finance is the key STRUCTURAL problem because it operates in its own interest. It must be replaced by a Banking structure that operates truly in the public interest. The conceptual/paradigmatic monetary problem of loan and debt only is deeper and must come first as loans even at 0% interest will not remedy the problem that the economy routinely creates more costs/prices than it does individual incomes. By all means let us have a Banking structure that operates truly in the interests of the individual, AND ALSO Gifting via policies implemented at the proper place and time so we can have an actual and complete solution.
*************************************************
I understand that JD. All I am saying is that both the structural and the conceptual aspects of the problem MUST be included and combined…or the problem will not be actually solved. Finance will pick people off in compromise by accusing them of being rigid and doctrinaire unless they understand this. It’s not doctrinaire to insist that an entire package of reform is necessary….if the reforms won’t work at all…..without the entire package.

Thanks Liam. Yes there are many ways to be fooled because there is particle of truth and untruth in most theories, but the only comprehensive truth is Grace which is synonymous with the experience of consciousness itself. Wisdom is the process of combining and refining of truths whose pinnacle concept and personal experience is Grace/Full Consciousness. Contemplate, self actualize and apply Grace personally and systemically…and you can’t go wrong.
