There is one historical phenomenon which is above paradigm change and that is a change in zeitgeist/ethic of the age. Humanity has been struggling within the current zeitgeist which is Power, Profit and Control since it became self aware and hence aware of the essential reality of ethics. Paradigm changes are both mental and temporal universe advances. A change in zeitgeist is purely mental and yet, because everything different as a species with and about Man is essentially our increased mental/emotional/spiritual capabilities…a change in zeitgeist is even more significant than a paradigm change. Both paradigm changes and changes in zeitgeist are monitored by their effects being an aspect or aspects of the natural philosophical concept of grace as in loving action/graciousness. Presently the monetary paradigm is Monopolistic Domination Via Debt Only For the Creation and Distribution of All New Money and the new paradigm is Strategic Monetary Gifting. Gifting being an aspect of the concept of grace. Changing this monetary and hence economic paradigm with the policy of a 50% Discount/Rebate at retail sale not only resolves several of modern economy’s deepest problems, but because everyone participates in retail sale it also enables the greatest opportunity to self actualize the major aspect of grace, i.e. gratitude for a gift, since meditation and prayer…and hence facilitates progressing toward the new zeitgeist from Power, Profit and Control to Redeemed/Redemptive Power, Profit and Control. The clock is ticking loudly. https://www.amazon.com/Wisdomics-Gracenomics-New-Monetary-Paradigm-Policies-ebook/dp/B0C49B9PX7/ref=tmm_kin_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=1552358772&sr=1-1-catcorr
