In other words a scarcity of total individual incomes in ratio to total costs, and because all costs must go into price, also in ratio to total prices that must be liquidated if the economy is approximate equilibrium, the holy grail of economic theory.

Now an equilibrium is actually not an ideal or maintainable state in the temporal universe, so what is actually required for a truly free flowing economy is what I refer to as “the higher economic disequilibrium” where people have a satisfactory virtual middle class level of income due to a universal dividend and a proactive policy of pronounced price deflation (30-40% and up) that continually lowers the need for finance by both the individual and businesses. These dividend and discount policies interpenetrate, bracket and encompass the economy and are actually the component parts, the very definition of balance and equilibrium and the latter  (Retail Discount) is strategically placed  for maximum and final effect.  They also pinpoint policy on the above ratio which, again, is the economy’s deepest problem, and finally are reflectively a dualism and ratio themselves.
